Yong Wei is a software engineer at Google with a PhD in Physics and seven years of professional experience bridging advanced semiconductor R&D and software development. He brings deep domain expertise in 14nm/7nm FinFET process optimization, reliability and yield analysis, and extensive TEM/STEM characterization skills built over a decade of microscopy work. Prior roles at GLOBALFOUNDRIES, Intel, and IBM reflect hands-on impact in device physics, SRAM/analog product support, and failure analysis, while his computational toolkit (Python, C++, MATLAB) enables practical data-driven solutions. He combines rigorous analytical training—evidenced by 20+ publications and Monte Carlo/PCA experience—with effective cross-functional communication to translate complex physical problems into manufacturable solutions. An uncommon strength is his ability to pair high-resolution experimental techniques (EDX/EELS tomography, electron holography) with software-driven quantification workflows, accelerating insights from microscopy to product decisions.
