We are seeking a Mechanical Engineer to join our Test Hardware Development team. In this role, you will design, analyze, and validate mechanical structures that support high-performance electronic test systems, including circuit boards, stiffening frames, and miscellaneous support brackets. The ideal candidate has experience with board-level mechanical standard and structural reinforcement methods.

Key Responsibilities

Design and development of mechanical components

such as stiffening frames, board-level mechanical structures and brackets in sheet metal and simple flat machined stock.

Apply PCB board mechanical standards

to ensure structural integrity, and manufacturability of board assemblies.

Collaborate with electrical and test engineering teams

to define mechanical constraints, mounting patterns, stack-ups, and interface requirements for Advantest test systems.

Create detailed 3D CAD models and engineering drawings

using industry-standard tools (SolidWorks, Creo, etc.).

Work closely with suppliers and manufacturing partners

to review manufacturability, tolerances, materials, and production processes.

Support prototype builds and mechanical validation testing , ensuring alignment with Advantest platform mechanical standards.

Participate in design reviews , ensuring compliance with Advantest quality, reliability, and safety standards.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in

Mechanical Engineering

or related discipline.

Experience with

mechanical design for PCB assemblies , including board stiffening methods and load-bearing structures.

Proficiency with

stiffening frame and bracket design , including tolerances, material selection, and assembly constraints.

Hands‑on experience with CAD tools (SolidWorks, Creo, NX, or similar).

Understanding of

DFM/DFA , manufacturing processes (machining, sheet metal, plating, anodizing), and geometric dimensioning & tolerancing (GD&T).

Ability to interpret electrical board layouts and integrate mechanical requirements.

Strong problem‑solving and cross‑functional communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience supporting

ATE systems

Knowledge of high‑density PCB mechanics

Familiarity with FEA tools (ANSYS, SolidWorks Simulation)

Experience working with semiconductor customers or test interface hardware suppliers.

Seniority level Mid‑Senior level

Employment type Contract
