Department Overview:
The stage R&D department develops new technologies and products for the stage business unit. We work on a wide range of products ranging from ultraprecision systems that achieve nanometer-level precision for semiconductor applications, to large format and highly dynamic gantry systems capable of accelerating hundreds of kilograms of mass in excess of 4 g's. The R&D team comprises members with diverse technical specialities working in an interdisciplinary setting on some of the most challenging technical problems in the company.
Job Description
- Carry out mechanical design of multi-axis stages and motion systems.
- Carry out basic engineering analysis & computation to validate preliminary design concepts.
- Carry out finite element analysis to optimise and validate mechanical static and dynamic characteristics.
- Prepare engineering drawing packages (2D and 3D) for manufacturing.
- Prepare manufacturing documentation of new products (e.g. assembly drawings, work instructions, test plans) to prepare for transfer to manufacturing.
- Conduct hands-on assembly and mechatronics debugging of prototype stages or motion systems.
- Design and conduct experiments to address gaps in knowledge and mitigate technical risk of design.
- Work with local and overseas teams (such as Sales, Applications, Manufacturing) within the organisation to support the entire product lifecycle (i.e. from conceptualisation to commercialisation).
Qualifications
- Candidate must possess at least Bachelor's Degree / Master's Degree and/or equivalent, preferably in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and/or any other relevant course of study.
- We will consider If applicants with alternative background with strong interest and motivation to learn.
- Preferably with 1-2 Year(s) of working experience in relevant engineering industry.
- Applicants without experience but with good learning ability are welcome to apply, undergraduate training in Mechanical / Mechatronics engineering or related field, prefer GPA better than 4/5.
