About The Position

The Mechanical Design Engineer 4 will support the design, development, prototyping, and testing of next-generation Broadband Plasma (BBP) Wafer Inspection Systems used in advanced semiconductor manufacturing. The position is based in Milpitas, California, and is offered as a long-term contract with the possibility of further extension. The engineer will design and qualify precision opto-mechanical assemblies and mechanisms, perform mechanical simulations, collaborate with suppliers and cross-functional engineering teams, and provide onsite support to manufacturing during assembly, testing, troubleshooting, and production.

Requirements

Strong experience in mechanical design and development of precision mechanical assemblies.
Proficiency in Creo CAD modeling and 3D mechanical design.
Experience in precision mechanism development and opto-mechanical design.
Knowledge of actuator selection, tolerance analysis, and mechanical lifetime evaluation.
Experience with optical component mounting, alignment, and adjustment mechanisms.
Hands-on experience with thermal and structural simulations.
Familiarity with CAE tools.
Experience with prototype development, testing, design qualification, and manufacturing support.
Strong cross-functional collaboration and problem-solving skills.

Nice To Haves

Experience with ANSYS; preferred CAE tool.
