Staff System Integration Engineer

Halo Industries, Inc., a pioneer in manufacturing innovation with light-based technologies, seeks a highly skilled System Integration Engineer to join our dynamic team. Our proprietary advancements replace traditional processes with novel light-based equivalents, offering higher quality, lower cost, and enhanced functionality. As we rapidly expand our operations, we're looking for a team to oversee our prototype systems' integration and verification activities.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled Staff System Integration Engineer to join our dynamic team. This role is crucial for the successful integration, testing, and deployment of our cutting-edge laser-based wafer manufacturing systems. The ideal candidate will possess a strong understanding of complex electro-mechanical systems, software integration, and data analysis, with a proven ability to troubleshoot and resolve technical challenges in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead cross-functional collaboration during early design phases to define system interfaces and resolve electro-mechanical, optical, and software mismatches before the physical build begins.
• Actively execute the physical integration of complex laser-based manufacturing prototypes, working directly with the hardware to seamlessly bring together diverse subsystems.
• Architect the overarching system test strategy and execute complex test plans, ensuring complete coverage from subsystem characterization to full-scale validation.
• Get hands-on with the tools to perform deep-dive, system-level root cause analysis and resolve complex multi-disciplinary issues.
• Write scripts, build automation tools, and analyze complex performance data to actively configure, tune, and optimize system parameters for peak stability.
• Serve as the technical anchor for integration workflows, making critical upstream decisions while mentoring junior engineers on the floor to elevate their practical troubleshooting skills.
• Partner with manufacturing teams for smooth system handoffs, actively authoring robust documentation (assembly/test procedures, manuals) and presenting performance reports to engineering leadership.

Requirements

Basic Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Optical Engineering, or a highly related technical field.
• 8+ years of hands-on experience in system integration, ideally within a semiconductor, laser, or precision manufacturing environment.
• Proven, highly hands-on experience assembling, integrating, and testing complex electro-mechanical systems, including optics, lasers, motion control, and automation hardware.
• Strong proficiency with data acquisition and analysis tools (e.g., MATLAB, LabVIEW, Python, etc).
