Mechanical Engineer (Mechatronics-Systems Engineer)

As an Advanced Engineer in Advanced Solutions Business Unit’s Mechanical Engineering Organization, this role will be working as a multi-disciplinary Engineer in Research & Development (R&D) department on advanced technology platforms for next generation high speed, high precision automated semiconductor assembly equipment.

Overview:

• Develop, model, test, and validate system and subsystem performance for high‑speed, high‑precision semiconductor manufacturing equipment, from feasibility through mass production.
• Collaborate cross‑functionally with mechanical, electrical, and software teams to define interfaces, execute test standards, and resolve issues through root‑cause analysis.
• Design test programs, analysis tools, and proof‑of‑concept fixtures to support new product development, performance optimization, and engineering‑to‑production transitions.

Responsibilities:

• Develop test program and analysis tools to conduct feasibility studies and establish critical system and subsystem-level performance parameters and constraints.
• Work in close coordination with mechanical, electrical and software teams to conduct module/ system level validations, define and document electromechanical interface parameters with application software.
• Model, test and analyze system and subsystem-level machine performance in high-speed, high accuracy semiconductor manufacturing equipment.
• Define and execute test standards to qualify systems and sub-systems to specifications for mass production.
• Perform root-cause analysis to understand, rectify and prevent issues during transition phase between Engineering and production and beyond as 2nd line of defense.
• Design simple dynamic structures and fixtures to assist with module and sub-system level proof of concept studies.
• Perform other duties as assigned.

Qualifications:

• Masters/Bachelor’s degree in Mechatronics/ Mechanical/ Electrical/ Systems Engineering
• Work experience in R&D or Product Engineering preferred, as well as Semiconductor equipment and/or precision machine development experience.
• Experienced with Matlab/Simulink, Python, C/C++ and Tcl to develop test program/ scripts and data analysis tools to study machine performance.
• Principles of operation of servo control systems, vision systems, material handling systems
• Hands-on testing and data analysis experience; test planning and set-up, design of experiments, instrumentation, statistical analysis, etc.
• Experience with technical systems requirements analysis, definition, allocation, and validation.
• CAD experience (NX preferred) for electro-mechanical system design and GD&T knowledge will be a plus.
• Strong personal initiative and demonstrated ability to work in a fast-paced environment on multi-disciplinary projects.
• Sense of timeliness and strong desire to find solutions for new product development.
• Good communication skills (written and oral)
• Willingness to work as part of a global engineering team with offices in Singapore, Europe, China, and the US; ability to travel internationally.
