Here are three possibilities: 1) device characterization engineer: spend your day taking measurement of silicon and optimizing parameter sets for simulation with eg BSIM3; you might also design and lay out test chips
2) process development engineer: work on improving devices: change doping profiles, process recipe, mask layouts, etc. to change the electrical behavior of devices; or figure out how to add new devices (eg add BJTs to CMOS process)
3) spice programmer: add new equations to a spice simulator to allow simulation of new device characteristics or new features of advanced cmos processes
There are other possibilities, too, I expect. I spend some of my time doing 3.
