We are in active build phase, small, and growing.
The roleYou design the hardware that carries our measurements: from machine housing to the wafer table and the structures that support the system.
You work closely with the mechatronics, optics and system engineers, and you are the link between our designs and the workshops that make them.
You will:Design the supporting hardware of our metrology tool, from the machine housing and frames to the system support structuresTake designs from concept to production drawings, select materials and finishes, and make them manufacturableWork directly with CNC shops and other suppliers: request quotes, discuss tolerances and design changes, and follow parts to deliveryUse analysis (FEM, thermal, dynamic) where it matters, and keep designs simple where it does notAssemble and test your own designs in the lab, and feed what you learn into the next versionYour profile3+ years of hands-on experience in mechanical design of high-tech equipment, for example semiconductor, metrology or scientific instrumentsA track record of designs that went from CAD to working hardware, including drawings and supplier contactFluent in 3D CAD (Creo preferred, SolidWorks or NX also fine)Solid grasp of tolerancing, GD&T, and design for manufacturing and assemblyPractical knowledge of machining and other production methods, so you know what a CNC shop can and cannot doA hands-on mindset: you are as comfortable at the lab bench as behind your CAD stationFull professional proficiency in EnglishBonus:Cleanroom-compatible or vacuum-compatible designVibration isolation and thermal management for precision systemsIn-depth semicon knowledge of SEMI standards, machine safety and CE markingA network of suppliers in the Brainport regionExperience with opto-mechanical design is a strong bonusWe care more about engineerin.
