About The Position

The Electromechanical Engineer supports the design, development, and ongoing operation of electromechanical systems used in precision shutter manufacturing and assembly at Advanced Thin Films. This is a hands-on, on-site role within a high-volume, high-complexity production environment with tight tolerances and high reliability expectations. The role is suited for a self-starting, mid-level engineer who is safety-focused, quality-driven, and comfortable making independent decisions while considering team input. A growth mindset, willingness to teach, and low-ego approach are important for success, especially when collaborating across manufacturing, quality, operations, and engineering teams. Flexibility during project ramp-up and ramp-out cycles is key.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Electromechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Process Engineering, or a related field.
Three to six years of experience designing, supporting, or troubleshooting electromechanical systems in manufacturing, equipment, or lab environments.
Experience with LabVIEW, SolidWorks, and general PCB design.
Experience working within a quality management system and using quality tools such as 5 Whys.
Ability to read, interpret, and create electrical schematics and mechanical drawings.
Strong hands-on troubleshooting skills across electrical, mechanical, and electromechanical systems.
Understanding of system integration, testing methods, and reliability engineering.
Familiarity with equipment such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, environmental chambers, power supplies, and programmable boards like Arduino.
Strong written and verbal communication skills and thorough documentation habits.
Detail-oriented with a focus on reliability, safety, and repeatability.
Ability to work independently with sound decision-making while incorporating team perspectives.
Proven success working collaboratively and professionally with teams; able to contribute without ego.
Adaptable and capable of maintaining effectiveness during rapid project changes or production transitions.
