Bharat Atomic exists to build India's first commercial Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and, through it, the technical foundations of a real semiconductor-equipment ecosystem.
We are designing and manufacturing a Field Emission SEM for sub-nanometer imaging - this will be one of the first high-tech analytical instrument built in the country.
You will own the complete mechanical design and all computer-aided design work.
This is an instrumentation engineering position requiring precision, vacuum, and integration experience.
Responsibility
- Design all mechanical systems : vacuum chamber, column supports, sample stage, detectors, lock-lock, and frame.
- Produce complete computer-aided design assemblies, manufacturing drawings, and bill of materials with clear tolerances.
- Design for high and ultra-high vacuum : flanges, seals, feedthroughs, viewports, and bake-out strategy.
- Develop precision motion systems for sample positioning and beam alignment with micron-level stability.
- Control vibration, drift, and thermal expansion through careful structural layout and material selection.
- Integrate mechanical, electrical, and optical components with correct alignment, grounding, and shielding.
- Work directly with in-house equipment on design for machining, welding, finishing, cleaning, and vacuum qualification.
- Build and test prototypes; refine designs based on measurement and performance results.
Minimum Qualifications
At least 5 years of experience designing precision scientific or semiconductor instruments such as electron microscopes, lithography tools, metrology systems.Expert user of professional computer-aided design software with strong command of tolerances and geometric dimensioning.Demonstrated experience designing for high or ultra-high vacuum, including materials, seals, and leak testing.Experience designing precision motion assemblies using bearings, flexures, piezoelectric or stepper-driven mechanisms.Ability to perform structural, thermal, and vibration analysis and validate results through testing.Hands-on experience with prototype fabrication, supplier management, and assembly documentation.Skills Required
