Job Overview

We are seeking an experienced Electrical Design Engineer to develop electrical systems and subsystems for complex semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in electrical and electronic design, PCB layout, industrial equipment development, safety standards, and hands-on engineering testing.

Candidates with direct semiconductor capital equipment experience are strongly preferred. Experience in industrial equipment, precision instrumentation, or similar complex product development environments will also be considered.

Key Responsibilities

Design electrical subsystems and system-level solutions for complex semiconductor equipment.
Translate customer and internal requirements into electrical designs and integrated product solutions.
Develop AC/DC power systems, digital circuits, electrical schematics, PCB layouts, cables, and cable harnesses.
Design and implement electrical safety interlocks for industrial and semiconductor equipment.
Evaluate electrical designs against applicable industry safety and regulatory standards.
Conduct hands-on engineering tests, analyze test data, and present technical findings.
Develop and document equipment calibration methods and testing procedures.
Support project planning, including task definition, scope estimation, effort planning, and cost assessments.
Prepare electrical drawings, engineering reports, design specifications, and production-release documentation.
Participate in technical reviews and collaborate with R&D, manufacturing, and cross-functional engineering teams.
Troubleshoot electrical issues encountered during manufacturing, integration, testing, and field operations.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering with at least 5 years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering with at least 3 years of relevant experience.
Experience in electrical and electronic design for industrial products or complex equipment.
Semiconductor equipment product development experience is highly desirable.
Hands-on experience with OrCAD, Altium Designer, AutoCAD, and/or PADS Layout.
Strong understanding of analog, digital, and mixed-signal electrical circuits.
Familiarity with applicable SEMI standards, including S2 and S8, as well as SEMI F47, UL, CE, RoHS, and related regulatory requirements.
Experience with electrical system integration, testing, troubleshooting, and technical documentation.
Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and organizational skills.
Ability to manage multiple engineering tasks and collaborate effectively in a cross-functional environment.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience designing temperature-control systems for complex equipment.
Experience with electrical safety interlocks, cable harnesses, and PCB layouts.
Exposure to product verification, calibration, manufacturing support, and production release.
Stable employment history demonstrating sustained contributions to engineering projects.

Additional Requirements

Must be able to work onsite in San Jose, California.
Must demonstrate strong technical communication and teamwork skills.
Must be proactive, detail-oriented, and capable of troubleshooting complex engineering problems.
