As a Dynamic Systems and Servo Analysis Researcher within the Mechanical Development team, you will advance precision-motion technologies for lithography systems. You will model structural dynamics, servo behavior, and multidisciplinary system performance to evaluate emerging concepts and guide technology-development decisions. Your daily work involves developing dynamic, finite element, reduced-order, and system-level models that integrate structural components with actuators, sensors, drive electronics, and control loops. You will analyze structural modes, dynamic stiffness, frequency response, and motion accuracy to identify performance drivers and technical risks. Required expertise includes structural dynamics, vibration analysis, and feedback control. You will utilize tools such as ANSYS, Siemens NX, COMSOL Multiphysics, MSC NASTRAN, MATLAB, Simulink, and Python. This role solves complex problems regarding flexible structures interacting with closed-loop control systems in high-performance mechatronic environments.
Validate model predictions using engineering calculations, sensitivity studies, and experimental measurement data.
Translate complex modeling results into practical technical recommendations for researchers and system architects.
Document modeling assumptions, boundary conditions, uncertainties, and analysis methods clearly.
Share models and methods to strengthen reusable research capabilities across the organization.
What we're looking for
Master’s degree or doctorate in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Controls Engineering, Applied Physics, Applied Mathematics, or a related technical discipline.
Significant professional or research experience in structural dynamics, control systems, precision mechatronics, or integrated system simulation.
Experience applying modeling and simulation to complex multidisciplinary engineering systems.
Experience with finite element analysis and tools such as ANSYS, Siemens NX, COMSOL Multiphysics, MSC NASTRAN, or comparable platforms.
Experience with MATLAB and Simulink, Python, or comparable modeling and data-analysis environments.
Experience generating or using reduced-order and state-space models (preferred).
Experience supporting early-stage technology development, feasibility studies, or advanced engineering research (preferred).
