Professor of Empire Innovation, Microelectronics

Category: Faculty

Department: Watson College of Engineering and Applied
Science

Locations: Binghamton, NY

Position ID: 195278

Binghamton University is nationally recognized for its leadership
in microelectronic systems, semiconductors, and advanced packaging,
leveraging a comprehensive ecosystem of research centers,
state-of-the-art facilities, and industry partnerships. The Small
Scale Systems Integration and Packaging (S3IP) center at Binghamton
is a New York State Center of Excellence that houses multiple
specialized centers, including the Center for Heterogeneous
Integration Research in Packaging (CHIRP), Center for Advanced
Microelectronics Manufacturing (CAMM), Integrated Electronics
Engineering Center (IEEC), Energy Smart Electronic Systems (ES2)
center, and Analytical and Diagnostic Laboratory (ADL). Our faculty
members and scientists conduct sponsored research in advanced
packaging, heterogeneous integration, semiconductor manufacturing
and materials, flexible electronics, energy efficient electronics,
and process optimization, among others. Since 1996, their research
efforts have generated over $1.9 billion in economic impact for New
York State, supported by collaborations with over 75 companies,
including IBM, AMD, NVIDIA, Google, Intel, General Electric,
Lockheed Martin, and GlobalFoundries.

The Thomas J. Watson College of Engineering and Applied Science at
Binghamton University invites applications from experts in
Microelectronics for a tenured faculty position at the Full
Professor level. This position will carry the title of Professor of
Empire Innovation, and is supported in part by SUNY's Empire
Innovation Program (EIP), a key initiative to recruit and retain
faculty with an established track record of research and
scholarship in areas of strategic priority.

We are seeking a well-established expert who has a track record of
leadership in funded research and scholarship in one or more areas
of Microelectronics, including:

• Codesign for Heterogeneous Integration/Advanced Packaging: (a)

EDA tools for chiplet integration or chiplet system design,
including applied AI/ML techniques for microelectronics co-design,
and (b) modeling for co-design with crosscutting considerations of
the chiplet system architecture, thermal and mechanical issues,
materials and reliability

• Digital Twinning for Semiconductor Manufacturing and Packaging

(SMP): Process optimizations for SMP across lithography, device and
chiplet fabrication, chiplet integration/assembly, material choices
and materials synthesis for improving manufacturing yield

• Semiconductor Lifecycle Impact Reduction: Sustainable

microelectronics manufacturing across the entire product lifecycle
using use of eco-friendly materials, minimizing the use of
hazardous chemicals (e.g., PFAS), energy-efficient processes,
circular economy models, utilizing lifecycle assessment tools, and
end-of-life microelectronics waste planning and management

As a Professor of Empire Innovation, the successful candidate must
have an established record of securing funding from federal/state
agencies and industry. They will be expected to lead in pursuing
large funding opportunities from federal and state agencies besides
industry partners and enhance the collaborative research ecosystem
involving multiple campus units across Binghamton University. The
successful hire would also help recruit and attract top talent to
complement existing strengths.

Depending on the specialization and match, the successful candidate
could be a tenured faculty in the Electrical and Computer
Engineering (ECE) Department, the Mechanical Engineering (ME)
Department, the School of Computing (CS), or the School of System
Science and Industrial Engineering (SSIE).

The successful candidate will receive a comprehensive startup
package including competitive salary compensation and benefits
commensurate with qualifications and experience.

Job Requirements:

• A doctoral degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a

closely related discipline

• Proven record of research leadership in cross-cutting

multi-institutional collaborative teams

• Proven record of sponsored research funding from federal and

state agencies

• Proven record of peer-reviewed high-impact publications
• Experience as an educator and research mentor at the

undergraduate and/or graduate level

Preferred:

• Significant scholarly work and contributions within one or more

of the focus areas of:

• Codesign for Heterogeneous Integration/Advanced Packaging
• Digital Twinning for Semiconductor Manufacturing and

Packaging

• Semiconductor Lifecycle Impact Reduction.
• Potential for leading multi-disciplinary research in

Microelectronics across different departments and schools of Watson
College.

Please be advised that H1B visa sponsorship may not be available
for this position.
