Group/Division
With over 40 years of semiconductor process control experience, chip makers around the globe rely on KLA to ensure that their fabs ramp next‑generation devices to volume production quickly and cost‑effectively. Enabling the movement towards advanced chip design, KLA’s Global Products Group (GPG), which is responsible for creating all of KLA’s metrology and inspection products, is looking for the best and brightest research scientists, software engineers, application development engineers, and senior product technology process engineers.

Central Engineering is KLA's largest engineering organization comprised of 9 Centers‑of‑Excellence (CoE) in various disciplines applied across all product groups in the company. These CoEs include Handling & Automation, Precision Motion Control, Sensors & Image Acquisition, Platform Design, and Packaging Engineering, among others. Talent includes over 500 engineers across global centers in Israel, China, India, and the US. Each CoE contributes not just talent and deliverables per discipline toward product programs, but also subject‑matter expertise, best practices, roadmaps, specialized facilities, apparatus, models, and analytics.

Job Description / Preferred Qualifications
Are you an Electrical Engineer who thrives on solving complex, cross‑disciplinary challenges? Join KLA’s multifaceted and hands‑on engineering team, where innovation meets execution. We’re looking for a top‑tier engineer to help design and develop the next generation of integrated power systems and modules for our groundbreaking tools. In this role, you’ll collaborate with electrical and mechanical engineers to design, detail, and test new electrical subsystems.

If you’re a self‑motivated engineer who enjoys turning concepts into reality and brings a “get it done” mentality, this is the role for you.

• Lead the design and development of electrical parts, modules, and subsystems for integrated measurement systems.
• Manage the full design lifecycle— from requirement specification and feasibility studies to component selection, cost analysis and scheduling. Perform detailed analyses including circuit, timing, thermal/cooling, and electrical load balancing calculations for 120–480
  
  VAC single‑phase, 3‑phase, and low‑voltage DC power distribution systems that comply with applicable standards (NEC, NFPA 79, IPC, SEMI, IEC).
• Program PLCs (e.g., Siemens, Allen Bradley) and integrate control and safety‑interlock systems.
• Create conceptual and detailed designs using tools such as AutoCAD and CREO, including drawings, BOMs, test procedures, and fixtures.
• Lead design reviews and collaborate across subject areas (mechanical, software, systems, manufacturing).
• Procure prototype parts, conduct testing, and support system integration and manufacturing handoff. Bring strong problem‑solving and diagnostic skills.
• Work closely with suppliers to ensure design requirements are met and resolve issues throughout the product lifecycle.

• Experience in electrical system integration.
• Strong background in AC power delivery,…
