About the role
Purpose: As a Mechatronic Design Engineer, you design and develop high-precision mechatronic modules and advanced motion systems for the semiconductor industry. You focus on next-generation, high-accuracy systems, including module-level test platforms, in a multidisciplinary, international setting. Your role includes programming Beckhoff PLC-based motion control software, optimizing system performance across mechanical, electrical, and control disciplines. You collaborate with cross-functional teams, take end-to-end ownership, support integration, and evaluate motion control performance. Key Area of Responsibilities: Develop, test, and maintain PLC software (TwinCAT); implement safety, synchronization, diagnostics, and machine logic. Create HMI interfaces andautomated report generation. Design and implement motion systems and control loops to meet demanding accuracy, stability, and throughput requirements. Perform motion control tuningand signal analysis to achieve required dynamic performance. Translate customer and system requirements into clear motion and control specifications for modules and systems. Conduct calculations, simulations, and tests (frequency response, step response, control stability, etc.) and interpret their implications for system performance. Contribute to the organization's competence in motion control, PLC programming, and system dynamics. Qualification &Experiences: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems & Control, or a related field. Minimum 3 years of hands‑on experience in PLC programming, motion control design, or high‑accuracy mechatronic systems. Experience in the semiconductor industry or other high‑precision domains is a strong plus. Strong experience with Beckhoff TwinCAT or similar PLC/motion platforms(e.g., B&R, Siemens, Omron). Familiarity with EtherCAT‑based architectures is a plus. Experience with simulation tools (MATLAB, Simulink, Python) and measurement instruments (oscilloscopes, vibrometers, data acquisition systems)is beneficial Proficiency with CAD software such as SolidWorks, NX, or similar tools. Strong problem-solving abilities and proven capability to work efficiently within a collaborative team setting.
