We are seeking an engineer to lead the development and optimization of lapping and surface finishing processes for new, miniaturized form factor substrates. This role is critical to achieving ultra-high precision dimensional control and superior surface quality required by advanced magnetic recording heads.

About The Role - You Will

  • Develop end-to-end process strategies for lapping of small form factor substrates, ensuring dimensional accuracy.
  • Improve key lapping parameters, such as applied pressure, rotation speed profiles, carrier design, and lubricant delivery systems to reduce variation and mechanical stress on fragile substrates.
  • Participate in the design and development of automation solutions for smaller substrate form factors and dimensions.
  • Analyze process performance data, identify yield or quality gaps, and lead in-depth root cause investigations to drive corrective and preventive actions.
  • Ensure thorough documentation of process flows, control plans, work instructions, and engineering change management.

About You

  • Bachelor's or Higher degree in Bachelor's or Higher degree in Mechanical, Mechatronics, Robotics, Automation, or a related field.
  • Strong understanding of lapping and polishing ideally within precision or semiconductor-grade manufacturing.
  • Proficient in CAD software and familiar with motion control, sensors, and basic automation control systems.
  • Proficient in data analysis using tools like JMP, Python, or Excel, and skilled in DOE methodologies.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving mindset with the ability to drive cross-functional alignment and execution.
  • Effective communicator in both written and verbal English, with the ability to present findings clearly across technical and management teams.

Your Experience Includes

  • Experience in lapping or CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) of micro-scale components.
  • Experience in CAD software
