As Manager of Systems Engineering group, you will lead a diverse and motivated team of 15–20 engineers specializing in mechanical engineering and semiconductor solutions. Located primarily in Eindhoven, your team will directly report to you. You will serve as a coach and mentor, supporting their growth in competencies and skills while fostering collaboration and innovation. Additionally, you’ll handle relationships with suppliers and development partners. This team’s expertise includes stages, holders, and EFEM systems, working closely with module and system architects to define and enhance current and future competencies in SEMI TEM development.
Key Responsibilities: Lead the Systems Engineering group focused on mechanical engineering. Develop mechanical and systems engineering competencies within the team. Oversee team goals, performance evaluations, and talent acquisition. Ensure high-quality output from team members. Provide effort estimations and resource allocation to support project portfolios. Identify and implement opportunities for improvement in team processes, collaborations, or competencies. Contribute to the development and maintenance of the TEM technology roadmap, ensuring commonality across portfolios. Collaborate with industry partners, research centers, and universities to develop innovative concepts and modules. Engage with project leads, program managers, and peers to ensure productive collaboration across teams and divisions.
Qualifications and Experience: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field, with expertise in mechanical system design principles. Proven experience leading teams in a high-tech R&D environment. Strong understanding of New Product Development (NPD) processes and challenges. Knowledge of Electron Microscopy technologies is highly preferred; experience in other complex industries will also be considered. Demonstrated ability to manage complex engineering projects through defined processes. Outstanding skills in inspiring, persuading, and motivating teams.
Why Join Us? We value diversity and innovation in building an impactful and collaborative work environment. We seek individuals who thrive in a multidisciplinary, technical setting where personal development and collaboration are integral to success. This role provides a great opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking TEM technologies and impactful solutions. Our core values of Integrity, Intensity, Innovation, and Involvement define our community and drive our success.
Application Process: If you are passionate about advancing technology, inspiring teams, and making a tangible impact, we encourage you to apply for this leadership role.
