Mechanical Architect

You will architect the mechanical foundations of sophisticated high-tech systems including lithography equipment, wafer inspection tools, precision motion systems, and analytical instruments. Working within multidisciplinary teams, you translate customer requirements into mechanical specifications and conceptual designs that enable nanometer-level precision and ultra-high reliability in semiconductor manufacturing environments.

You define mechanical architectures for complex capital equipment where thermal stability, vibration isolation, and precision positioning are critical to system performance. Your designs directly impact the production capabilities of advanced semiconductor processes and analytical measurement systems used in cutting-edge research and manufacturing facilities
