Mechanical Engineer - (E4)

Applied MaterialsSanta Clara, CA
$147,000 - $202,500Onsite

About The Position

As a Mechanical Engineer, you’ll leverage your strong foundation in physics, mathematics, and materials science to process and resolve mechanical problems, design and implement custom mechanical tooling and associated processes, and enable the handling, assembly, and disassembly of parts, components, sub-assemblies, and final assemblies throughout the product life cycle. You'll be responsible for designing, developing, and modifying mechanical engineering layouts, schematics, and specifications. You will oversee manufacturing and installation processes, ensuring adherence to industry standards and regulations-- and you'll coordinate the procurement and assembly of mechanical components and equipment for design projects, identifying sources of critical parts and subsystems to resolve technical issues. This role focuses on the design, analysis, and testing of advanced electrostatic chucks (ESC) for plasma etch applications. The position offers hands-on experience with complex thermal, mechanical, electrical, and materials challenges in advanced semiconductor hardware.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree
  • 7-10 years of experience
  • Experience in fluid-thermal, thermo-electrical, and FEA structural analysis (COMSOL or Ansys)

Nice To Haves

  • NX/UG preferred for 3D CAD design and release

Responsibilities

  • Own and lead mechanical design and development of complex subassemblies and modules (e.g., electrostatic chucks, heaters, pedestals) for plasma etch tools
  • Conduct engineering analysis including FEA, thermal, structural, and flow simulations as needed
  • Perform 3D CAD design and release (NX/UG preferred), including detailed drawings and specifications
  • Drive prototype build, lab testing, and validation, including development of test plans and engineering reports
  • Identify, troubleshoot, and resolve complex mechanical issues, performing root-cause analysis and implementing corrective actions with minimal supervision
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with electrical, process, manufacturing, and reliability teams to deliver integrated solutions

Benefits

  • Supportive work culture that encourages learning, development, and career growth
  • Opportunities to take on challenges and drive innovative solutions
  • Empowerment to push boundaries and learn every day
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • Eligibility for other forms of compensation such as participation in a bonus and a stock award program, as applicable
