As a Mechanical Engineer, you’ll leverage your strong foundation in physics, mathematics, and materials science to process and resolve mechanical problems, design and implement custom mechanical tooling and associated processes, and enable the handling, assembly, and disassembly of parts, components, sub-assemblies, and final assemblies throughout the product life cycle. You'll be responsible for designing, developing, and modifying mechanical engineering layouts, schematics, and specifications. You will oversee manufacturing and installation processes, ensuring adherence to industry standards and regulations-- and you'll coordinate the procurement and assembly of mechanical components and equipment for design projects, identifying sources of critical parts and subsystems to resolve technical issues.

General Profile:

Requires specialized depth and/or breadth of mechanical engineering expertise, with strong application in cost optimization, supply chain alignment, and product lifecycle improvement. Interprets internal and external business drivers - including cost, supply risk, manufacturability, and performance - and applies best practices to deliver value-driven engineering solutions. Solves complex mechanical and system-level problems by balancing design intent, reliability, cost, and supply chain considerations. Takes a broad, systems-level perspective to identify innovative and scalable solutions.

Works independently , receives minimal guidance. Acts as a resource for colleagues with less experience.

Role Responsibilities

Identify, analyze, and resolve complex mechanical issues across systems, subsystems, fabricated structures, machined components, sheet metal assemblies, and purchased parts, with emphasis on cost reduction, supply resiliency, manufacturability, and reliability
Lead or execute value engineering initiatives, including cost reduction projects, alternate material evaluations, supplier transitions, process changes, and component redesign efforts
Develop, modify, and optimize mechanical designs, machined components, and tooling solutions while maintaining system performance and product requirements
Partner with strategic suppliers to develop, qualify, and improve mechanical components, assemblies, coatings, fabricated structures, and manufacturing processes
Apply Design for Cost (DfC), Design for Manufacturability (DfM), Design for Assembly (DfA), and Design for Supply Chain (DfSC) principles to drive scalable and cost-effective solutions
Support and lead ECO evaluation and execution, ensuring design changes deliver measurable value while managing technical and operational risk
Support NPI cost evaluation, design convergence, and localization efforts, ensuring designs meet cost, quality, manufacturability, and supply chain objectives
Work cross-functionally with Engineering, Supply Chain Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Global Commodity Management, Quality, and Program Management teams to drive end-to-end value improvements
Define and execute mechanical validation and qualification testing, including structural, thermal, vibration, fatigue, environmental, and reliability assessments
Perform engineering analysis related to GD&T, tolerance stack-up, material selection, thermal performance, structural integrity, manufacturability, and process capability
Generate and review engineering specifications, supplier technical requirements, test plans, qualification documentation, and released engineering drawings
Drive supplier qualification and multi-sourcing activities, including technical assessments, capability reviews, first article evaluations, and manufacturing process validation
Contribute to value tracking activities, including savings validation, PPV support, cost modeling, should-cost analysis, and opportunity identification
Effectively communicate technical tradeoffs involving cost, performance, manufacturability, reliability, and supply chain considerations to influence business decisions

Minimum Qualifications

Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related engineering discipline
4-7 years of experience in mechanical engineering, product engineering, manufacturing engineering, supplier engineering, or related technical roles
Strong experience with mechanical design principles including sheet metal, weldments, machined components, structural analysis, material selection, and GD&T
Demonstrated application of Design for Excellence (DfX) principles, particularly Design for Cost and Design for Manufacturability
Experience supporting engineering changes, supplier technical discussions, and cross-functional product development activities
Proficiency with CAD systems and engineering documentation practices
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to translate technical opportunities into measurable business value

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in value engineering, cost reduction, supplier engineering, manufacturing engineering, or supply chain engineering environments
Knowledge of Applied Materials and/or Varian product lifecycle processes, including NPI, ECO execution, supplier qualification, and product support
Experience with sheet metal fabrication, weldments, machining, castings, coatings, and assembly processes
Experience leading supplier transitions, multi-sourcing initiatives, localization projects, or redesign-for-cost activities
Knowledge of should-cost analysis, value analysis/value engineering (VA/VE), and cost modeling methodologies
Familiarity with semiconductor capital equipment, vacuum systems, structural frames, beamline systems, wafer handling equipment, or similar complex electromechanical products
Experience qualifying alternate materials, manufacturing processes, and global suppliers
Working knowledge of quality systems, failure analysis, reliability methods, and root cause investigation tools
Strong understanding of system-level integration across mechanical, electrical, manufacturing, and supply chain disciplines
