What you will do

• Diagnose mechanical issues across PAS5500, YieldStar, Reticle Handler, and XT modules, including precision stages, handlers, structural frames, bearings, flexures, linkages, actuators, and alignment mechanisms.
• Perform tolerance stack-up, clearance and fit, torque, thermal drift, friction, wear, vibration, deformation, and fatigue analyses.
• Investigate motion anomalies, mechanical resonances, backlash, compliance, and mechanical-control coupling effects with electrical and mechatronics engineers.
• Partner with Development & Engineering on structured root-cause analysis, ECN reviews, design changes, and corrective-action validation.
• Improve mechanical drawings, assembly sequences, inspection procedures, torque guidelines, diagnostic methods, and troubleshooting guides.
• Lead design-of-experiments, measurement analysis, structural validation, and mechanical stability improvements affecting yield, robustness, and issue recurrence.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Precision Engineering, Automation, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related discipline.
• 3–5 years of experience in precision machinery design, mechanism design, tolerance analysis, assembly or process engineering, motion system mechanics, structural dynamics, or mechanical failure troubleshooting.
• Ability to interpret 3D CAD models and detailed mechanical drawings; NX or SolidWorks experience is preferred.
• Knowledge of tolerance stack-up, GD&T, torque control, mechanical fits, assembly principles, thermal expansion, friction and wear, stiffness, damping, and mechanical coupling.
• Strong system-level mechanical failure analysis and problem-solving skills.

Nice to have

• Experience with semiconductor equipment, automation machinery, robotics, or precision motion systems.
• Hands-on experience with alignment processes, assembly fixtures, torque tools, or mechanical measurement instruments.
• Familiarity with vibration diagnostics, modal behavior, structural stiffness evaluation, experimental mechanics, ECN processes, RCA methods, or reliability improvement projects.
• Experience designing controlled experiments to validate mechanical hypotheses and structural fixes.

Culture & Benefits

• Highly collaborative work across Development & Engineering, Manufacturing, Customer Support, electrical, and mechatronics teams.
• Hands-on, system-oriented engineering focused on stable factory output and recurring issue reduction.
• Weekend support is planned in advance and compensated according to company policy.
• Inclusive and diverse equal-opportunity workplace.
