R&D Engineer (Mechanical Design)

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. Other Information Skillset(s) Requirement: • Knowledge of CAD tools. • Understanding of basic mechanical engineering analysis and design calculations for precision design. • Experience with Finite Element Analysis of Mechanical static and dynamic modelling/simulation would be a plus. • Ability to design and conduct simple experiments, and to draw meaningful conclusions from the results. • Hands-on experience in performing mechanical assembly and testing validation. • Experience and/or knowledge in basic technical documentation preparation (e.g. assembly work instructions) Attributes: • High willingness to learn and commitment to developing as proficient practicing engineer • Strong and clear communicator • Conscientious worker with ability to perform under dynamic high-stress situations • Basic time management skills to handle assigned tasks independently with limited supervision • Meticulous attention to quality, detail and reliability
