Senior Engineer, Product Development Engineering

The Role: 

The Product design engineer will provide technical solutions in Microenvironment mainly focus on FOUP (Front Opening Unified Pod) products through manufacturable, reliable designs by combining mechanical engineering, SolidWorks expertise, and simulation. You will partner with suppliers and cross‑functional, global teams to deliver designs that meet function, quality, schedule, and cost goals—reducing development risk and accelerating time‑to‑market. 

In this role you will: 

• Translate ideas into robust designs using SolidWorks and engineering simulation to inform decisions. 

• Design and build plastic parts and prototypes (3D printing and injection molding) in close collaboration with suppliers. 

• Balance quality, cost, and schedule with cross functional stakeholders across regions. 

• Plan and support validation builds from concept through ramp; drive issue closure to enable milestones. 

• Maintain essential documentation (drawings, BOM, changes) with disciplined configuration control. 

• Communicate clearly in English across time zones to align requirements, decisions, and risks. 

Traits we believe make a strong candidate: 

• Mechanical engineering foundation; strong SolidWorks (parts, assemblies, drawings). 

• Working knowledge of simulation on SolidWorks or Ansys to guide design tradeoffs. 

• Hands‑on experience with plastic part design and 3D printing prototyping. 

• Practical understanding of manufacturing and supplier collaboration. 

• Systems thinking and structured, data‑informed problem solving. 

• Innovation mindset with the ability to turn ideas into testable designs. 

• Clear, concise English communication and stakeholder management across functions and geographies. 

• Ownership and execution plan well, follow through, and adapt under ambiguity. 

Your success will be measured by: 

• Quality, reliability, and innovation in mechanical design and simulation 

• Effectiveness in identifying and resolving customer issues or requirements. 

• Contribution to vendor management and collaboration with third‑party suppliers 

• Contribution to cross-functional collaboration with Sales, MTS, and design teams 

• Timely delivery of project milestones and technical solutions 

• Impact on product improvement and alignment with customer needs
