About the role

  • You advise clients of the G3C in preparing technology projects in the areas of chip design and heterogeneous integration.
  • Together with the G3C expert team, you conduct feasibility analyses, identify implementation partners and locate suitable infrastructure in the European pilot lines (in particular APECS).
  • You also help companies without prior semiconductor expertise achieve product innovations using chip technologies.
  • You raise visibility for G3C’s offerings through contributions at events (trade shows, association meetings, conferences) and build contacts with SMEs, startups, investors and other partners.
  • You present G3C’s work and successes together with the PR team on social media and the G3C websites.
  • You participate in meetings of the approx. 30 European competence centres at various locations across Europe, visit competence clusters in Germany and connect the G3C with the German chip-design ecosystem.

Requirements

  • Degree in physics, electrical engineering, computer engineering, industrial engineering or a comparable qualification
  • Background in microtechnology (e.g., CMOS, MEMS, photonics), chip design or systems engineering
  • Several years of professional experience in your field, e.g., as a process engineer, chip designer or in the development of embedded hardware/software systems
  • Ideally, experience with both research institutions and private-sector companies and contacts to key players in your field
  • Willingness to travel for business, e.g., to trade-show appearances or events (occasionally on weekends) across Germany and Europe (travel share approx. 20%)
  • Very good German and English skills, both spoken and written.
Benefits
  • Exciting role: A highly meaningful and varied position contributing to the strengthening of Germany and Europe as a technology location.
  • Efficient collaboration: An interdisciplinary team of experienced specialists with short communication paths, fast decisions and strong support.
