• Perform field verifications of existing piping, heat exchangers, pumps, filtration, and mechanical equipment to validate as-built conditions and confirm system capacity
• Lead capacity versus demand analysis and utility forecasting to support fab growth and tool installation scenarios
• Develop mechanical and process designs for closed-loop and open-loop PCW systems, heat exchange, filtration, and high-purity water delivery
• Apply root cause analysis, FMEA, and risk-based reliability methods to system problems and improvement opportunities
• Use SPC, performance data, and system assessments to identify risk and optimization opportunities
• Develop scopes of work, specifications, and engineering and construction packages
• Prepare projects for competitive bidding, coordinate contractor bid packages, and review bids from a technical and scope perspective
• Support capital and expense projects including system upgrades, expansions, and optimization initiatives
• Drive standardization of designs, specifications, and execution practices across projects
• Coordinate with client engineering, operations, maintenance, EHS, procurement, design and construction, and contractors
• Track scope, schedule, cost, construction activities, and commissioning through closeout, including field changes and final as-built documentation

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related engineering field
• Minimum of 5 years of engineering experience with semiconductor process water systems (PCW, DI/UPW, IWW, reclaim and reuse); semiconductor design background required
• Technical depth in water purification and delivery systems (reverse osmosis, ion exchange, high-purity piping) and industrial wastewater treatment
• Experience with high-purity and corrosion-resistant piping systems (PVDF, PP, stainless steel)
• Working experience with root cause analysis, FMEA, SPC, and data-driven system optimization
• Experience developing scopes of work, specifications, bid packages, and construction documents
• Contractor and vendor coordination experience in an operating manufacturing facility
