Job Description

As part of the Thermo Fisher Scientific team, you’ll discover meaningful work that makes a positive impact on a global scale. Join our colleagues in bringing our Mission to life every single day to enable our customers to make the world healthier, cleaner and safer. We provide our global teams with the resources needed to achieve individual career goals while helping to take science a step beyond by developing solutions for some of the world’s toughest challenges, like protecting the environment, making sure our food is safe or helping find cures for cancer.

DESCRIPTION:
We are seeking a highly experienced Electrical Engineer III – Precision Robotics & Mechatronics with expertise in robotic automation, mechatronic systems, precision motion, and sample handling technologies to support the design, development, and lifecycle management of Electron Microscope (SEM, TEM, DualBeam/FIB-SEM) products. This role is responsible for designing and integrating robotic and mechatronic subsystems that enable precise sample handling, positioning, automation, and instrument functionality while ensuring high levels of accuracy, repeatability, reliability, and product performance.

Key Responsibilities

Design, develop and optimize robotic and mechatronic systems for Electron Microscopy platforms and adjacent high-precision instrumentation.
Develop precision sample handling mechanisms, robotic transfer systems, end-effectors, grippers, and automation modules.
Design precision motion mechanisms incorporating servo motors, linear actuators, encoders, sensors, and precision transmission components.
Apply robotics, kinematics, and mechatronic design principles to achieve high positioning accuracy, repeatability, and reliability.
Collaborate with Controls, Software, Systems, Electrical, and Mechanical Engineering teams to integrate robotic subsystems into complete products.
Evaluate the technical impact of design changes on robotic systems, product functionality, manufacturability, reliability, and serviceability.
Review mechanical designs, specifications, tolerance analyses, and engineering documentation for robotic and automation systems.
Strengthen subsystem specification and technical ownership, including working with vendors from requirements through integration, characterization, troubleshooting, and lifecycle support
Lead Value Analysis/Value Engineering (VAVE) initiatives to reduce product cost while maintaining or improving performance and quality
Participate in design reviews, risk assessments, root cause investigations, and engineering change management activities.
Drive continuous improvements in product performance, reliability, manufacturability, serviceability, and cost through engineering best practices.
