R&D Systems Engineer - Haverhill, United States - Edwards Vacuum
Description
As a R&D Systems Engineer you will be responsible for new product definition, system level design and system architecture for Edwards' CTI and Polycold product lines. You will integrate new cryogenic, refrigeration and vacuum technologies to develop innovative solutions for the semiconductor and diffuse market customers.
Main Responsibilities:
Edwards is a leading developer and manufacturer of sophisticated vacuum products, exhaust management systems and related value-added services. Edwards solutions are integral to manufacturing processes for semiconductors, flat panel displays, LEDs and solar cells. They are also used within an increasingly diverse range of industrial processes including power, glass and other coating applications; steel and other metallurgy; pharmaceutical and chemical; and for scientific instruments in a wide range of R&D applications.
Edwards has over 4,000 employees worldwide engaged in the design, manufacture and support of high technology vacuum and exhaust management equipment. Edwards has state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in Europe, Asia and North America.
