Production Engineers combine the strengths of Development & Engineering (D&E), Manufacturing, and Customer Support to ensure stable factory output, rapid root-cause analysis, and structural improvements across mature system generations. As a Production Engineer (Mechatronics) , you will work on high‑precision, multi‑axis motion platforms involving wafer/reticle stages and handlers. The role focuses on servo dynamics, precision motion behavior, calibration/mapping, vibration/resonance analysis, mechanical‑control coupling , and system-level mechatronics troubleshooting. This position is ideal for engineers with experience in motion control systems, servo tuning, precision automation, or high‑accuracy mechatronics equipment , who want to work on nanometer‑precision platforms in a global high‑tech environment. Engineers who enjoy analyzing motion behavior, improving system dynamics, and solving complex mechatronics interactions will find this role especially rewarding. Role and responsibilities Precision Mechatronics Troubleshooting Diagnose mechatronics issues in PAS5500/YS/RH/XT modules, including precision stages, handlers, linear motors, voice‑coil actuators, encoders/interferometers, air bearings , and motion assemblies. Analyze following error, overshoot, settling time, stick-slip, friction, backlash/compliance, thermal drift, vibration/resonance , and their effects on motion accuracy and system stability. Perform frequency response / Bode / FFT / PSD analysis to identify system modes, structural dynamics, and control‑mechanical interactions. Motion & Control Interaction Analysis Interpret PVA (position/velocity/acceleration) profiles and distinguish mechanical contributions from control or electrical effects. Collaborate with Software & Control / Electrical / Mechanical engineers on servo tuning (PID/Gain/Feedforward), notch filters, motion profiles, controller parameters , and sensor–actuator integration. Validate hypotheses using controlled experiments; isolate root causes related to mounting stiffness, cable routing influence, mode coupling, encoder alignment , or structural disturbances. 3rd-Line Engineering & Structural Fixes Define structured problem statements after 1st/2nd-line troubleshooting paths are exhausted. Partner with D&E for in‑depth root cause analysis , proposing and validating structural solutions such as: improvements to mechanical interfaces enhanced stiffness/damping vibration isolation measures calibration/mapping optimizations motion tuning packages Support ECN reviews , NPI introduction, and implementation of permanent fixes. Production Support & Stability Improvements Ensure factory stability for mechatronics modules through experiment design (DOE) , data analysis, performance trending, and structural improvement implementation. Drive cross-functional efforts to improve yield, robustness, MTBF , and reduce recurring escalations. Documentation & Diagnostic Improvements Maintain and enhance procedures for motion tuning, calibration, alignment, error-table diagnostics, and mechatronics troubleshooting . Identify gaps in diagnostics and develop new measurement steps, test sequences, or motion evaluation methods . Mentor junior engineers and strengthen mechatronics capability across the factory. Required Qualifications Education Bachelor or Master’s degree in: Mechatronics Mechanical Engineering Precision Engineering Electrical / Control / Automation Engineering Or related technical fields. Technical Background (3–5 years in one or more) Experience in motion control systems, servo dynamics, stage/handler mechanics, or precision automation equipment . Hands-on experience with: motion tuning (PID/feedforward/filtering) PVA analysis and motion diagnostics encoder/sensor integration calibration/mapping techniques vibration or dynamic behavior troubleshooting Experience with multi-axis mechatronics systems or high‑precision machinery.
