Job Description/Preferred Qualifications

Key Responsibilities

We are seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer to support development, integration, and alignment of EUV source opto‑mechanical subsystems. This role focuses on precision mechanical design and alignment of EUV optics, vacuum chambers, and Laser Beam Delivery hardware in a highly constrained, ultra‑clean, and high‑stability environment.

The ideal candidate will work closely with optics, laser, plasma, vacuum, controls, and system integration teams to enable robust alignment strategies and deliver high‑performance source hardware from concept through test and deployment.

Mechanical Design & Opto‑Mechanical Support

• Design and detail precision mechanical components and assemblies supporting EUV source optics, opto‑mechanical mounts, and alignment hardware.

• Develop designs compatible with ultra‑high vacuum (UHV), thermal stability, contamination control, and high‑power laser environments.

• Support mechanical interfaces between EUV optics, vacuum chambers, and source subsystems.

Alignment & Integration

• Support EUV optics alignment, including definition of datums, shimming strategies, adjustability ranges, and tolerance stack‑ups.

• Contribute to vacuum chamber alignment concepts and procedures to ensure optical and mechanical reference consistency.

• Support Laser Beam Delivery Unit alignment, including opto‑mechanical mounts, beam path stability, and serviceability considerations.

• Participate in system‑level integration, alignment builds, and troubleshooting during lab and tool bring‑up.

Analysis & Documentation

• Perform tolerance analysis, basic structural and thermal assessments, and alignment sensitivity studies.

• Create and maintain detailed CAD models, drawings, BOMs, and engineering documentation.

• Support design reviews, risk assessments, and failure analysis related to alignment stability and mechanical performance.

Cross‑Functional Collaboration

• Work closely with optical, laser, plasma physics, vacuum, controls, and manufacturing engineers.

• Support transition from R&D prototypes to more robust, manufacturable designs.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with vacuum and laser systems, or semiconductor capital equipment.

• Familiarity with optical alignment methods, metrology tools, and reference frame management.

• Experience designing for thermal stability, vibration sensitivity, and long‑term alignment repeatability.

• Exposure to UHV systems, contamination control, or cleanroom assembly.

Minimum Qualifications

Doctorate (Academic) Degree and 0 years related work experience; Master's Level Degree and related work experience of 3 years; Bachelor's Level Degree and related work experience of 5 years

• Strong experience with precision mechanical design and 3D CAD (e.g., Creo, SolidWorks, NX, or equivalent).
• Hands‑on exposure to optics, opto‑mechanical systems, or alignment‑critical hardware.
• Experience working with vacuum-compatible designs (materials, fasteners, cleanliness).
• Ability to work effectively in a cross‑disciplinary R&D environment.
• Clear technical communication skills (drawings, procedures, design reviews).
