from Lam Research careers## The group you’ll be a part of
You’ll be joining the WETS Product Group, a highly collaborative, cross‑disciplinary organization within Lam’s Global Products Group (GPG), focused on delivering industry‑leading wet processing solutions for advanced semiconductor manufacturing. The WETS organization develops liquid‑based process equipment supporting both wafer and panel‑level applications, with strong emphasis on new product introduction (NPI), technology differentiation, and manufacturing scalability.
Our teams work closely across mechanical, electrical, controls, software, systems, and process engineering—partnering globally to bring complex, high‑performance tools from concept through production while meeting aggressive cost, schedule, and quality targets.
## The impact you’ll make
As a Mechanical Engineer 4 in the WETS Product Group, you will contribute directly to the design, development, and delivery of next‑generation wet processing equipment for advanced semiconductor manufacturing. Your work will support critical NPI programs, shaping mechanical designs that meet performance, reliability, cost, and manufacturability goals.
In this role, you will translate system‑level and subsystem requirements into robust mechanical solutions, working closely with Systems, Process, Electrical, Controls, and Manufacturing Engineering partners. Your contributions will help reduce development risk, accelerate schedules, and enable high‑quality products to reach customers on time.
This is an execution‑focused role with meaningful ownership, where strong fundamentals and good engineering judgment make a visible impact on product success.
