Additionally, you’ll identify and mitigate risks, confirming that our systems meet the highest quality standards and exceed customer expectations.  

Role Responsibilities

  • Lead the definition, design, and development of complex components, modules, and subsystems, ensuring alignment with Market Requirement Specifications (MRS).

  • Contribute to system engineering specifications across disciplines, including electrical, mechanical, physics, algorithms, and software, with a strong understanding of system-level implications.

  • Coordinate with project marketing, management, and engineering teams to understand subsystem requirements and drive architecture brainstorming, evaluation, and down-selection to optimal subsystem solutions.

  • Perform detailed engineering analyses and develop architectural design concepts, providing recommendations for the best system-level approach.

  • Build, procure, and qualify prototypes or subsystems (including vendor-supplied solutions), ensuring compliance with detailed specifications and reliability standards.

  • Identify, troubleshoot, and resolve complex engineering challenges, including considerations for manufacturability and serviceability.

  • Support system integration activities, including assembly, final testing, reliability validation, and implementation of design or operational improvements as needed.

  • Provide onsite and remote technical support to field teams, vendors, and customers, including travel when required for testing and qualification activities.

  • Serve as Program Coordinator for DCR and Sequoia projects within the Epi manufacturing division, driving cross-functional execution and delivery.

  • Identify and implement cost reduction opportunities for Epi chambers and tools, including coordinating alternative design development and release with engineering teams.

  • Manage vendor engagement and coordinate activities to support design changes, validation, and project execution.

  • Drive product structure updates and changes to enable Sequoia program objectives.

  • Plan, coordinate, and execute experiments to support Sequoia initiatives, ensuring proper documentation and analysis of results.

  • Create, modify, and release engineering and manufacturing documentation, including development and release of iOMS documents to support program requirements.

Role Requirements

  • Degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Materials, or related).

  • Experience in subsystem design, integration, and multi-disciplinary engineering.

  • Proven project/program coordination and cross-functional collaboration skills.

  • Strong problem-solving and troubleshooting capability.
