About Our Group

We are seeking a motivated and technically strong Process Integration Engineer to support slider mechanical technology development through integration of processes, materials, designs, and metrology across the development flow. This role contributes to ensuring that individual process modules work together effectively to achieve targeted technology performance, quality, and readiness.

The Senior Engineer will work closely with process module owners, metrology, cleanliness/defect, and design teams to support integration learning, evaluate cross process interactions, and help drive technology development toward scalable and robust solutions. This role provides strong technical execution and analytical support across development stages while building broader system level integration capability.

About The Role - You Will

Support end to end process integration activities for slider mechanical development across process steps, materials, design intent, and metrology.
Assist in identifying cross process interactions, risks, and trade offs impacting technology performance and readiness.
Execute integration experiments including DOE, test vehicle evaluations, and learning cycle activities to support system level understanding.
Collaborate closely with process module owners, metrology, cleanliness/defect, and design teams to drive technical issue resolution.
Support establishment of integration checkpoints, learning milestones, and readiness assessments across development stages.
Analyze development data and summarize integration findings to support decision making and technology progression.
Contribute to documentation, process flow understanding, and technology transfer readiness activities.
Participate in continuous improvement activities to strengthen integration discipline and development efficiency.

About You

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Materials, Electrical, Physics, or related discipline).
5+ years of experience in process development, integration engineering, or advanced technology development.
Good understanding of mechanical processes, materials interactions, and product/process integration concepts.
Experience supporting cross functional technical problem solving activities.
Strong analytical and data interpretation skills with exposure to DOE and multi variable analysis.
Good communication and collaboration skills with ability to work effectively across technical teams.
Fluent in English, both written and spoken.

Your Experience Includes

Experience with slider, HDD, semiconductor, or other precision high technology products.
Familiarity with development environments, technology staging, or pre production activities.
Basic understanding of metrology and defect mechanisms related to process integration.
Experience supporting process flow definition, technology experiments, or platform development activities.

Competencies

Systems Awareness – understands interactions between processes, materials, and design considerations.
Technical Collaboration – works effectively across multiple technical disciplines and stakeholders.
Analytical & Problem Solving – uses structured and data driven approaches to solve technical issues.
Learning Agility – able to quickly develop broader integration understanding across development areas.
Execution Focus – capable of delivering quality technical work within development timelines.
