Mechanical/Pneumatic Engineer

About the role

Join our R&D team in Williston, Vermont as a Mechanical/Pneumatic Engineer to design and develop advanced systems that power the future of semiconductor manufacturing. Your expertise in mechanical systems, pneumatics, and problem-solving will have a direct impact on next-generation technology.

Responsibilities

• Generate design concepts, diagrams, P-schematics, detail, and assembly drawings
• CAD & Bill of Materials creation and maintenance with SolidWorks & SAP/ECTR
• Work within the requirements of internal product development processes including participation in design/project reviews
• Design and develop pneumatic and gas delivery systems for semiconductor equipment, including regulators, valves, manifolds, and tubing assemblies
• Perform sizing, selection, and specification of pneumatic components to meet performance, cleanliness, and safety standards
• Develop schematics, P&IDs, and system layouts using Zuken E3 schematic software
• Work closely with mechanical, electrical, process, and controls engineers to ensure seamless system integration
• Partner with suppliers and vendors to source high-quality components and develop custom solutions
• Ensure compliance with industry and safety standards (SEMI, ISO, etc.) and internal quality requirements
• Participate in design reviews and risk assessments (FMEA)

Requirements

• B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (or relevant technical degree)
• 3+ years of experience in pneumatic system design (semiconductor, vacuum systems, or high-tech equipment preferred)
