Job description:
The engineering team that creates the world’s most advanced bare wafer and un-patterned monitor wafer inspection equipment is looking for a mechanical engineer to join the engineering team in the development of an exciting new product.
Responsibilities:
The successful candidate will work with senior engineers in the development of critical mechanical subsystems, from the concept design phase through test and characterization, product release and sustaining. The candidate will be challenged to create cost effective, reliable, precision mechanical systems which are also highly manufacturable and serviceable.
Activities will include working with cross functional groups to define subsystem specifications, design, analyze, prototype and test to these specifications, work with vendors to manufacture the subsystems, and support the roll out of the product into manufacturing.
