Co-Innovation Through Subsystem Architecture & Design

• Analyze, refine, architect and design mechanical subsystems including robotics/mechatronics, vacuum and gas delivery, power systems, and precision mechanical assemblies.
• Develop detailed CAD models and engineering drawings for weldments, sheet metal, machined parts, and assemblies.
• Analyze, refine, and define system and subsystem interfaces, requirements, and specifications.
• Develop and maintain interface control documents (ICDs).
• Lead requirements decomposition and ensure bi-directional traceability.
• Establish subsystem validation strategies and verification plans.
  
  

Analysis & Verification

• Perform structural, thermal, dynamic, and vacuum-related analyses using advanced FEA tools.
• Lead risk assessments including FMEAs, root cause analysis, and structured problem‑solving.
• Validate system reliability through load‑path evaluation, stress analysis, fatigue modeling, and environmental considerations.
  
  

Technical Leadership & Cross‑Functional Integration

• Lead cross‑functional design reviews and drive subsystem integration, optimization, and design validation.
• Collaborate with global teams, suppliers, and customers to refine requirements and resolve technical issues.
• Champion DFX, VAVE, Lean methodologies, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Mentor early‑career engineers, elevate technical standards, and influence engineering culture by role modeling key attributes of leadership and ownership.
• Make high-impact technical decisions that influence product performance and industry competitiveness.
• Represent engineering in customer engagements and roadmap discussions.
  
  

Lifecycle, Compliance & Supply Chain Support

• Support NPI, RFQ processes, qualification testing, and component lifecycle management.
• Ensure design compliance with global regulatory standards (UL, CE, RoHS, REACH).
• Develop and maintain robust documentation including BOMs, specifications, test plans, qual plans, and ECOs.
• Partner with product management, operations, supply chain, and finance to ensure solutions meet cost, reliability, and schedule targets.
  
  

How will you get here?

• 5 years’ experience in semiconductor capital equipment or wafer‑fab, advanced packaging environments.
• Expertise in mechanical design, precision systems engineering, mechatronics, power systems, and fluid/vacuum systems.
• Proficiency in FEA, CAD, and structural/thermal analysis tools.
• Strong communication, documentation, and cross‑functional collaboration skills.
• Demonstrated ability to lead reviews, guide teams, and interface with customers.
• Ability to travel domestically and internationally up to 30%.
  
  

Education:

• Bachelor’s degree in mechanical, systems, or related engineering field
  
  

Preferred:

• MS in mechanical or systems engineering
• Experience in semiconductor mechanical system design
• Hands‑on prototyping and global supplier engagement
