You will collaborate with cross-functional teams and play a key role in bringing innovative engineering solutions to life.

Responsibilities

• Translate system requirements into robust mechanical designs and sub-system specifications
• Perform component selection, tolerance analysis, and motion system design to achieve high performance and reliability
• Develop and validate design concepts aligned with engineering and manufacturing requirements
• Lead system integration, testing, and validation across development, manufacturing, and customer-site phases
• Ensure systems meet performance, quality, and reliability expectations
• Support troubleshooting and problem-solving during system build and commissioning
• Manage engineering activities across the full product lifecycle, from concept through release to manufacturing
• Coordinate with cross-functional teams to ensure timely project delivery
• Drive technical issue resolution and continuous improvement initiatives
• Work closely with System, Electrical, and Manufacturing teams to ensure design feasibility
• Lead internal teams or external partners in co-development projects
• Manage vendors and contractors to deliver high-quality sub-systems
• Provide technical support during installation, commissioning, and customer-site deployment
• Resolve field issues and support system performance improvements based on real-world feedback

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or related discipline
• Minimum 3 years of experience in semiconductor equipment, automation, or precision engineering industry
• Strong fundamentals in mechanical design, including tolerance stack-up and FEA
• Proficiency in SolidWorks or equivalent 3DCAD tools (mandatory)
• Exposure to vision systems, thermal modelling, or measurement techniques is an advantage
• Hands-on, with a passion for building, testing, and troubleshooting real systems
• Strong communication skills and ability to work in a cross-functional, global environment
• Willing to travel and support critical project phases when required
