The Group You’ll Be A Part Of

DPG focuses on enabling our customers with premier products and support throughout their lifecycle with Lam. We drive scoping, design, performance, productivity, safety, and quality of customers installed base performance and deliver service and lifecycle solutions for their most critical equipment and processes through our support orgs within Lam. 

The Impact You’ll Make

As a Mechanical Engineer at Lam, you're designing and defining cutting-edge mechanical and electro-mechanical systems. Your role involves feasibility studies, testing, and guiding teams in detailed design and fabrication. You provide the crucial design information needed to shape our technology's packaging.
In this role, you will directly contribute to the gasbox designs in DPG org.

What You’ll Do

• Primary responsible is to design gasbox assemblies using OEMs (MFC, valves, filter and others) and designed parts (gasline weldments/machined blocks) and release documentation to support build, testing and production. Responsible for full life cycle of gasbox systems from concept to productization including scoping, conceptualization, designing, CAD modelling and analysis, development, and test/validation.
• Communicates as a subject matter expert on high level technical issues and escalations while providing guidance and recommending solutions.
• Handle factory, process and customer issues and escalations to keep up the business goals. Partner with account team to present the detailed review report in 8D format (PS, RCCA/PA) and get buy in to execute the proposed solutions.
• Ensure documentation aligns with SEMI, Lam standards, and industry best practices.
• Define project schedule, work breakdown structure and milestones to drive projects and deliver to the scope.
• Participates in the review of procedures, processes and tool design impacting development activity.
• Conduct detailed analysis for flow and thermal characterization of gases. Conduct manufacturability analysis of the designed parts and assemblies.
• Develop and conduct feasibility studies and test plans to characterize and validate design/component performance.
• Prepare high-quality reports and technical presentations to clearly communicate design intent, evaluation, and validation to a diverse audience in design reviews.
• Collaborate with suppliers and internal teams to ensure solutions can be manufactured without defects, cost-optimized, and to requirements.
• Provide key deliverables including Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), technical specifications, risk analysis, test specifications, and design review presentations.
• Provide technical guidance and mentoring to junior engineers and contribute to the learning of the team through knowledge sharing and development sessions.
• Contribute to new technology development
• Develop to be a knowledge house for gasbox and flow related queries.
• Develop and engage in hands-on learning in the hardware lab
