Have you ever looked at a complex machine or mechanical system and instinctively started thinking about how every component fits, moves, aligns, and works together

If you enjoy solving complex mechanical challenges and turning engineering concepts into robust, high-precision systems, this role might be for you.

We are looking for an experienced mechanical engineer who enjoys taking ownership of complex designs, solving challenging engineering problems, and making sound engineering decisions—even when requirements are not always complete.

Together, we will transform ideas into reality.

Here is where you will come in:

As a Senior R&D Mechanical Engineer, you will lead the mechanical development of complex Automated Test Equipment (ATE) systems and critical subsystems—from concept and architecture through design, verification, qualification, and production.

Key Responsibilities:

- Lead mechanical development of complex systems or major subsystems.

- Translate system-level requirements into mechanical architecture and design specifications.

- Establish design concepts, critical interfaces, tolerances and engineering methodologies.

- Lead complex mechanical problem solving and root-cause investigations.

- Perform and review tolerance analysis, mechanism analysis and structural considerations.

- Establish design standards and reusable engineering solutions.

- Conduct technical design reviews and challenge engineering assumptions.

- Mentor Engineers and Advanced Engineers in mechanical design and problem solving.

- Review critical drawings, BOMs, calculations and design decisions.

- Work with manufacturing and suppliers to resolve difficult fabrication and assembly issues.

- Lead design verification and qualification of critical mechanical functions.

- Contribute to technology development and next-generation ATE platforms.

Technical Scope:

May own technically critical areas such as:

- High-pin-count docking systems

- Testhead mechanical architecture

- Precision alignment systems

- High-cycle mechanisms

- Large precision assemblies

- Thermal/mechanical integration

- Structural and vibration-sensitive assemblies

Requirements:

- Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline.

- Typically 6–10+ years relevant engineering experience, with demonstrated ownership of complex products, systems, or critical subsystems.

- Strong expertise in mechanical design and manufacturing.

- Advanced knowledge of GD&T and tolerance analysis.

- Strong practical understanding of precision machining, sheet metal, plastics and assembly.

- Demonstrated experience solving difficult engineering problems.

- Able to communicate technical decisions clearly and defend engineering trade-offs.

- Semiconductor/ATE/automation/precision equipment experience strongly preferred.

What success looks like:

You are a technical problem solver and subsystem owner who can make sound engineering decisions, even when requirements are incomplete.

You balance performance, reliability, manufacturability, and practical product needs while identifying and resolving technical risks.

You also enjoy mentoring others and helping raise the technical capability of the team.

If you enjoy solving complex mechanical challenges and building the next generation of semiconductor test solutions, we would love to hear from you.
