Job Title: Staff Mechanical Design Engineer
Location: Milpitas, CA
Duration: Fulltime

Job Description:
The senior level mechanical engineer position is responsible for development of the next generation metrology tool as well as continuing improvement (CIP) of the current tools. The candidate will be responsible for key mechanical engineering tasks, from requirement specification, top level mechanical analysis, conceptual and detail design, prototype integration, testing and handoff to manufacturing. The detail design activities include system-level layout, opto-mechanical design, precision mechanism design and alignment tooling design, using Pro/E as the design tool.

The candidate must participate in the design process in cross-discipline teams including System Engineers, Optics Engineers, Manufacturing Engineering and other groups within K-T worldwide organization. He/she needs to exercises independent judgment in developing methods, techniques and Perform analysis as needed to verify new designs. The candidate is also expected to champion his/her designs throughout the release process and generate all required engineering documentation until they are fully released to manufacturing.
