Rooted in our core values - Focus on the Customer, Ownership & Accountability, Respectfully & Effectively Communicate, and Motivate & Develop People - we foster an environment where diverse perspectives are not only welcomed but celebrated. Everyone can make an impact here. Whether it's improving products, supporting customers, or positively influencing peers and the community, the contributions of our people matter.

Shift:

The regular hours for this position are day shift.

Job Description:

As a Sr Principal Mechanical Design Engineer within the Product Solutions group, you will serve as a subject matter expert responsible for developing and advancing mechanical designs as we expand our newest pad probing product portfolio across a wide range of customers and challenging semiconductor applications.

Working closely with product development, manufacturing, applications, quality, and customer-facing teams, you will lead complex mechanical design efforts from requirements definition and concept development through prototyping, qualification, product launch, and sustaining support. You will apply deep mechanical engineering expertise, structured problem-solving, and data-driven decision-making to develop solutions that balance product performance, reliability, manufacturability, cost, and customer requirements.

Key Responsibilities:

Mechanical Design & Product Development

Lead the design and refinement of novel tip construction and pad probing products for advanced packaging applications, from requirements definition and concept development through prototyping, qualification, scaling, and sustaining support.
Serve as a mechanical design subject matter expert, providing technical direction on complex product design, performance, reliability, and manufacturability challenges.
Develop innovative mechanical solutions for complex or ambiguous applications where established design approaches may not fully address requirements.
Create and maintain complex 3D CAD models, layouts, detailed engineering drawings, specifications, and bills of materials for manufacturable product designs.
Apply GD&T, tolerance analysis, design for manufacturability, and mechanical assembly principles to develop robust and repeatable designs.
Perform engineering analysis, including tolerance studies, fit and function assessments, design reviews, and finite element analysis as appropriate.

Product Validation & Qualification

Define product performance requirements, engineering test plans, and validation strategies to demonstrate readiness for customer applications.
Support prototype development, laboratory testing, product qualification, manufacturing scale-up, and launch readiness.
Analyze experimental and product performance data to validate designs, identify risks, and guide engineering decisions.
Drive design reviews and technical assessments to evaluate design trade-offs and ensure performance, quality, cost, and manufacturability requirements are met.

Customer & Field Support

Translate customer needs, application challenges, and business requirements into actionable product improvements and new technical capabilities.
Partner with applications and customer-facing teams to optimize designs for real-world customer applications.
Provide technical escalation support for complex field and customer issues, drawing on hands-on engineering expertise and structured problem-solving.
Aggregate customer feedback, field performance, and technical learnings to recommend product enhancements and influence future design direction.

Troubleshooting & Continuous Improvement

Lead troubleshooting and root cause analysis for complex product and field issues, developing prototypes and design modifications to validate corrective solutions.
Apply structured problem-solving and failure-analysis methodologies, such as DOE, 8D, FMEA, and SPC, to identify and resolve technical issues.
Use qualification results, manufacturing data, and field performance to identify opportunities for improved product quality, reliability, and manufacturability.
Identify and implement improvements to engineering methods, design practices, tools, and processes that increase development efficiency and technical capability.

Cross-Functional & Technical Leadership

Collaborate with product development, manufacturing, applications, quality, and customer teams throughout the product lifecycle.
Provide technical leadership and engineering judgment on complex mechanical design decisions, risks, and trade-offs.
Influence cross-functional technical decisions by communicating engineering findings, recommendations, and design rationale to key stakeholders.
Mentor and provide technical guidance to less-experienced engineers, sharing best practices and strengthening mechanical design capabilities across the team.

Preferred Qualifications & Experience:

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline, or equivalent relevant experience.
Significant experience in mechanical design and product development, with demonstrated ability to independently lead complex designs from concept through prototyping, qualification, production, and sustaining support.
Advanced proficiency with 3D CAD, engineering drawings, GD&T, tolerance analysis, mechanical assemblies, and design for manufacturability.
Hands-on experience with laboratory testing, experimental design, product validation, and troubleshooting complex mechanical systems.
Strong knowledge of structured problem-solving, statistical analysis, and failure-analysis methods such as DOE, 8D, FMEA, and SPC.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to use engineering and performance data to identify root causes and drive design improvements.
Proven ability to collaborate across product development, manufacturing, quality, applications, and customer-facing teams while providing technical leadership and influencing engineering decisions.
Experience with probe card technology, semiconductor test, advanced packaging, precision mechanical systems, or similar high-technology products.
Experience with finite element analysis, process engineering, continuous improvement, or customer-facing technical support is a plus.
Ability to work in a Class 1000 cleanroom environment as needed and travel up to 15% domestically and internationally.

Skills:

Customer Escalation, Customer Messaging, Failure Analysis, Mechanical Design, Mechanical Design Drafting, Mechanical Engineering, Probe Cards, Testing Protocols, Wafer Probing

Education & Experience:

Minimum of 8 years of related experience with a Bachelor’s degree; or 6 years and a Master’s degree; or a PhD with 3 years experience; or equivalent experience | Required
