Company Overview KLA is a global leader in diversified electronics for the semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem. Virtually every electronic device in the world is produced using our technologies. No laptop, smartphone, wearable device, voice-controlled gadget, flexible screen, VR device or smart car would have made it into your hands without us. KLA invents systems and solutions for the manufacturing of wafers and reticles, integrated circuits, packaging, printed circuit boards and flat panel displays. The innovative ideas and devices that are advancing humanity all begin with inspiration, research and development. KLA focuses more than average on innovation and we invest 15% of sales back into R&D. Our expert teams of physicists, engineers, data scientists and problem-solvers work together with the world’s leading technology providers to accelerate the delivery of tomorrow’s electronic devices. Life here is exciting and our teams thrive on tackling really hard problems. There is never a dull moment with us.Group/Division Enabling the movement toward advanced chip design, KLA's Measurement, Analytics and Control group (MACH) is looking for the best and brightest research scientists, software engineers, application development engineers and senior product technology process engineers to join our team. The MACH team's mission is to collaborate with our customers to innovate technologies and solutions that detect and control highly complex process variations—at their source—rather than compensate for them at later stages of the manufacturing process. With over 40 years of semiconductor process control experience, chipmakers around the globe rely on KLA to ensure that their fabs ramp next-generation devices to volume production quickly and cost-effectively. Our MACH team develops leading-edge solutions for patterning process analytics and control technologies, thereby providing customers with critical insight at the feature level, field level and cross-wafer analysis. Our teams also develop advanced modeling simulation, data analytics and process control modeling technologies. As a member of the MACH team, you’ll be joining the most sophisticated and successful process-control company in the semiconductor industry--working across functions to solve the most complex technical problems in the digital age.Job Description/Preferred QualificationsKey Responsibilities

Set up and integrate HPC job scheduling capabilities. Implement features to submit, queue, and track simulation jobs on HPC resources, interfacing with job schedulers like Slurm for managing workloads.

Build monitoring dashboards for job status and results. Develop front-end components that display real-time status of simulation runs and provide data visualization of simulation outputs (e.g. charts, graphs) for analysis and decision-making.

Design and develop the simulation platform’s web application, including both client-side interfaces and server-side logic, ensuring a user-friendly UI and scalable back-end

Implement inter-service communication and service-oriented architecture for the platform’s backend components. This includes designing RESTful APIs for efficient communication between services

Ensure code quality and reliability through unit testing, integration testing, and code reviews.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams throughout the development cycle to gather requirements, refine the platform’s features, and ensure the solution meets user needs and performance goals.

Optimize performance and scalability of the application. Profile and improve system performance to handle computationally intensive simulation data and concurrent users, leveraging best practices for high-throughput and low-latency systems.

Stay updated with emerging technologies and industry best practices. Bring new ideas to the team by exploring modern frameworks or tools that could enhance the platform’s capabilities.
