About the Role

We are looking for a hands‑on Mechanical Engineer to design and deliver precision mechanical systems for advanced semiconductor and automation equipment.

In this role, you will be involved in the full engineering lifecycle — from concept and design to system integration and deployment — working on high‑performance equipment used in real‑world manufacturing environments. You will collaborate with cross‑functional teams and play a key role in bringing innovative engineering solutions to life.

What You'll Work On

• Precision mechanical systems for semiconductor and high‑precision automation equipment
• Motion systems, tolerance‑critical assemblies, and system‑level integrations
• End‑to‑end product development — from concept design to manufacturing and customer deployment

Key Responsibilities

Mechanical Design& Development

• Translate system requirements into robust mechanical designs and sub‑system specifications
• Perform component selection, tolerance analysis, and motion system design to achieve high performance and reliability
• Develop and validate design concepts aligned with engineering and manufacturing requirements

System Integration& Validation

• Lead system integration, testing, and validation across development, manufacturing, and customer‑site phases
• Ensure systems meet performance, quality, and reliability expectations
• Support troubleshooting and problem‑solving during system build and commissioning

Project Ownership& Lifecycle Management

• Manage engineering activities across the full product lifecycle, from concept through release to manufacturing
• Coordinate with cross‑functional teams to ensure timely project delivery
• Drive technical issue resolution and continuous improvement initiatives

Collaboration & Vendor Management

• Work closely with System, Electrical, and Manufacturing teams to ensure design feasibility
• Lead internal teams or external partners in co‑development projects
• Manage vendors and contractors to deliver high‑quality sub‑systems

Deployment & Customer Support

• Provide technical support during installation, commissioning, and customer‑site deployment
• Resolve field issues and support system performance improvements based on real‑world feedback

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or related discipline
• Minimum 3 years of experience in semiconductor equipment, automation, or precision engineering
• Strong fundamentals in mechanical design, including tolerance stack‑up and FEA
• Proficiency in SolidWorks or equivalent 3DCAD tools （mandatory）
• Exposure to vision systems, thermal modelling, or measurement techniques is an advantage
• Hands‑on, with a passion for building, testing, and troubleshooting real systems
• Strong communication skills and ability to work in a cross‑functional, global environment
• Willing to travel and support critical project phases when required
