(ATS) is looking for a senior level Mechanical Engineer. This individual will perform a broad range of mechanical engineering functions related to the design, testing, and evaluation of hardware sub-systems for handling and testing electronic systems including semiconductors, embedded devices and co-packaged optics (CPO) devices. Develop and execute the detail design on new and/or modified existing designs in a fast-paced environment. Serve on product development team(s) and be assigned specific sub-assembly or sub-system mechanical design and testing responsibility. This role will require experience in electro-mechanical and automated systems, as can be found in leading semiconductor handlers and test systems.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
Design new and/or modify existing electro-mechanical assemblies to meet specific end customer requirements. Complete all detail drawings, assembly drawings and Bills of Material for all initial manufacturing builds and eventual production level manufacturing. Identify technical risk areas and optimization opportunities. Present designs during internal Design Reviews. Develop test specifications and evaluation protocols. Perform electro-mechanical hardware, assembly and integration testing and final qualification testing. Interpret functional test results and present findings to senior technical staff or vendors and customers. Develop and implement mechanical design changes that are identified during testing or design verification review. Develop new or modified test equipment, manufacturing and inspection jigs and fixtures, as required. Work as part of a team that includes manufacturing, quality assurance and technical support organizations to establish functional specifications for components and to select vendors/suppliers for purchased parts, materials and assemblies. Work closely with external Technology partners and successfully accomplishes common product design/ production goals. All other duties as assigned.

Experience working in cross-functional teams that build complex electro-mechanical systems comprised of closed-loop motion control hardware, electrical and software components is required. Experience in SolidWorks or similar 3D CAD system is required. Experience in creating and interpreting mechanical detail and assembly drawings using
ASME-Y14.5M GD&T
standards is required. Experience using CAD based FEA tools to check and optimize mechanical parts against structural requirements is required. Experience in electronic packaging, testing and integrating thermal systems into automated equipment is also preferred. Experience in failure prediction and analysis methods and processes like DFMEA, wishbone diagrams, 5 Whys or 8D Reports is required. Knowledge of thermal dynamics and CFD experience may be required to perform air flow analysis or thermal analysis. This is an on-site role in our Lake Forest, CA facility. Additional Skills Preferred (but not required): Experience with the architecting, design, certification and deployment of semiconductor capital equipment. Experience with using PDM (MechWorks) Software tools to manage system hardware design configurations and documentation. Experience with machine frame design and/or nineteen-inch electrical rack assembly design. Experience using 3D printers to create fast prototype or demonstration parts and assemblies. Contributed to the mechanical design and packaging of Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) modules, focusing on thermal management, EMI shielding, and optical alignment. Participated in cross-functional design reviews involving mechanical, electrical, and thermal disciplines to meet performance and reliability targets. Supported prototyping and testing of electro-mechanical assemblies, including load carrying performance, pressure distribution, environmental stress screening and vibration testing. Collaborated with external partners to develop chillers, condenser units or HVAC systems. Experience in semiconductor wafer handling, electrical device handling and/or factory automation equipment used in semiconductor device manufacturing or testing.
