Crisis? Who said crisis?. It seems that a guy called Manoj Gupta is looking again for people to work as device modeling engineers. Have a look at the linkedIn network here. And the only details I have are those posted here:
"Candidate will lead projects in Bipolar/BiCMOS/HVMOS/DMOS process analysis
and device characterization, as well as development of the SPICE model and
simulation library. Candidate should have an MSEE or PhD in EE with an
emphasis on device physics. Candidate will need at least 5 plus years
experience in characterization and modeling of Bipolar and MOS devices, with
good knowledge of modeling tools, IC technology, basic circuit design, and
programming."
If you know something more, share your knowledge!

1st International MOS-AK Workshop in San Francisco // 2nd announcement
--- 1st International MOS-AK Workshop
--- Saturday, 13 December 2008; the Westin St Francis Hotel in San Francisco
--- 2nd announcement
--- Saturday, 13 December 2008; the Westin St Francis Hotel in San Francisco
--- 2nd announcement
1st International MOS-AK Workshop on compact modeling, will be organized
in San Francisco (co-located with the CMC Meeting and IEDM Conference) with
aims to strengthen a network and discussion forum among experts in the
field, create an open platform for information exchange related to
compact/Spice modeling, bring people in the compact modeling field together,
as well as obtain feedback from technology developers, circuit designers,
and CAD tool vendors. The topics cover all important aspects of compact
model development, implementation, deployment and standardization within the
main theme - compact models for mainstream CMOS/SOI circuit simulation. The
specific workshop goal will be to classify the most important directions for
the future development of the compact models and to clearly identify areas
that need further research. This workshop is designed for device process
engineers (CMOS, SOI, BiCMOS, SiGe) who are interested in device modeling;
ICs designers (RF/IF/Analog/Mixed-Signal/SoC) and those starting in that
area as well as device characterization, modeling and parameter extraction
engineers. The content will be beneficial for anyone who needs to learn what
is really behind IC simulation in modern device models. The technical
program of MOS-AK Workshop consists of one day of tutorials given by noted
academic and industry experts, also a panel session is foreseen. The meeting
program will be availabe soon at:

2009 Workshop on Compact Modeling (WCM'09)
The 2009 Workshop on Compact Modeling (WCM 2009) will be held in the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston (Texas, USA) on May 3-7 2009, as part of the Nanotech 2009 Conference.
The Workshop on Compact Modeling (WCM) is the largest event devoted to the Compact Modeling field. WCM has become a very important open forum for discussion among experts in this field as well as feedback from technology developers, circuit designers, and EDA tool vendors.
The suggested topics include all important aspects of compact model development and application: intrinsic models, extrinsic/interconnec models, atom/quantum models, statistical models, and model extraction and interface.
A limited number of papers will be selected for oral presentations and the remaining accepted papers will be planned for poster presentations with oral briefing. The deadline for abstract submission is November 12 2008.
The Chairman of WCM is Professor Xing Zhou (from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore). He was the person who created WCM and has made this workshop very successful.
I think that it is a must for Compact Modeling researchers to attend WCM. Many of the last advances in this field are presented there.

An interesting discussion
That is, if someone cares to post... I've get this thread from LinkedIn:
There seem to be a boom in requirement for Device modeling Engineers worldwide from Big Semiconductor Companies as well as small players. Is there a possibility of offshore work in this area too?
You can follow (and post) the discussion here.
