Mechanical Engineer 4

Wet Equipment and Technology Solutions is an exciting, rapidly evolving field as the semiconductor industry's dependence on wafer-level packaging solutions continues to grow with consumer needs such as artificial intelligence (AI) and super-computing. WETS Engineering has newly formed the Plating Process Critical team for Sabre and Sabre 3D electroplating product lines. The team is responsible for some of the most critical hardware with the closest proximity to the wafer and largest impact on plating performance. The team's vision is to partner with the process engineering group more closely than ever to deliver world-class hardware solutions for our customers. The team is seeking someone with a passion for engineering, strong analytical skills and attention to detail while keeping work fun and collaborative.

Responsible for mechanical engineering design and support in the Sabre Electrofill Product Group for projects tied directly to the plating cell. The ideal candidate should have fundamental knowledge of the Sabre and Sabre 3D product and the fundamentals of electroplating. The engineer will have various design, analysis, and support roles including product development, customer requested improvements, failure analysis, and quality improvements within supply chain and Lam manufacturing. This engineer will need to be comfortable in a variety of roles and work collaboratively with other disciplines including process engineering, product management, product support, and suppliers.
