About the Role

Own mechanical design for subsystems of optical coating machines and supporting equipment.

Responsibilities

  • Architect and implement linear/rotary axes (guides, screws, belts, bearings, couplings, lubrication, alignment, guarding).
  • Design for controlled airflow and nitrogen management (flows, routing, filtration, purge/pressure strategy, condensate considerations).
  • Design and control for IDS (Ink Delivery Systems) for inkjet printing systems.
  • Engineer thermal solutions (heating/cooling layouts, heat sinks/plates, insulation, expansion management).
  • Produce clean CAD (SolidWorks or Autodesk) and fully detailed 2D drawings with correct GD&T, fits, and surface specs.
  • Run tolerance stack-ups and DFM/DFA reviews; choose materials and finishes appropriate for cleanliness and durability.
  • Specify and source components; build structured BOMs; collaborate with suppliers on CNC, sheet metal, turning, and other processes.
  • Rapidly prototype and iterate (bench tests, assembly bring-up); support technicians during build, integration, and verification.
  • Document rigorously (ECOs, test reports, assembly instructions) and communicate cross-functionally with controls, process, and production teams.

Qualifications

  • ~10 years professional experience in mechanical design for machinery, equipment, or precision assemblies.
  • BSc or higher in Mechanical Engineering.

Required Skills

  • Mastery of SolidWorks or Autodesk (Inventor/Fusion) for complex assemblies and drawing creation.
  • Proven DFM for CNC milling/turning, sheet metal, bending, welding, and appropriate fastening/joining.
  • Strong command of GD&T (ASME Y14.5 or ISO 1101), tolerance analysis, and fits for motion and sealing interfaces.
  • Practical experience implementing motion axes (component selection, alignment, preload, stiffness, backlash control).
  • Working knowledge of airflow / nitrogen routing and thermal management in machinery.
  • Comfortable on the shop floor: metrology tools, bring-up, troubleshooting, and design changes based on test evidence.
  • High degree of self-sufficiency and fluent in English.

Preferred Skills

  • Printing system design.
  • Exposure to optical equipment, lens handling/fixturing, cleanliness-by-design, or coating system environments.
  • Light FEA for sanity checks, vibration/stiffness estimation, or thermal evaluations.
  • Familiarity with PDM/PLM, ECO workflows, and structured BOM management.
  • Experience delivering products that reached market production (industrial machinery or capital equipment).
