Key Responsibilities
● Design & CAD: Create and revise detailed models/drawings for elastomer seals and related components in SolidWorks/AutoCAD, adhering to standards, manufacturability, and cost considerations.
● Materials & Analysis: Evaluate elastomer performance for semiconductor applications; develop clear analytical reports with data-driven recommendations.
● Customer Engagement: Serve as a primary technical point of contact; lead trainings, demos, and technical reviews onsite and virtually; travel ~10–20% (domestic and international), often with Sales.
● Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Sales, Production, and Quality to develop tailored solutions that meet performance and reliability targets.
● Technical Documentation: Produce and maintain design specs, material data sheets, application notes, and user guides that enable customer success and support Sales.
● Continuous Improvement: Monitor market/technology trends; propose product and process improvements that enhance customer outcomes and operational efficiency.
Minimum Qualifications
● Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, or related field.
● Proficiency with mechanical CAD (e.g., SolidWorks, AutoCAD) and strong modeling/drafting fundamentals.
● Solid understanding of materials/physical properties and commonly used materials testing methodologies.
● Excellent written and verbal communication; able to explain complex topics to non-technical stakeholders.
● Data analysis skills with the ability to generate concise, insightful reports.
● Demonstrated problem-solving; effective working independently and in collaborative teams.
Qualifications
● 3+ years in mechanical design and/or applications engineering in semiconductors and/or elastomer/polymer design/manufacturing.
● 1+ years in field support or applications/sales engineering with intensive customer engagement in fabs/OEM facilities.
● Proficiency with finite element methods and analysis tools (e.g., Abaqus, SolidWorks Simulation); experience modeling polymer/elastomer behavior, fatigue/stress response, and thermal effects.
● Deep knowledge of elastomer material science for semiconductor processes and applications.
● Consultative communicator with executive presence; de-escalates issues, sets expectations, and translates customer goals into technical deliverables.
● Multilingual ability (e.g., Mandarin) is a plus, not required.
