About Veeco You probably don’t realize it, but what we do at Veeco touches the lives of every person, every day. It’s a bold statement, but it’s true. From the smartphones in our pockets that access the world’s collective knowledge, to the cloud-based services where all that information lives, to high-speed wireless communication and computing power needed to drive artificial intelligence, augmented and virtual reality, gaming and so much more, our technology is all around us.

We design, develop, manufacture, and service highly complex, cutting-edge machines used by our customers to create the essential devices that drive the digital age, connect the world, and improve the human experience. Along with the world’s leading technology companies, many of which are household names, we help solve their most difficult material science challenges, enabling technologies for a more connected, sustainable, and convenient world.

Are you energized by solving complex manufacturing challenges, working directly with cutting-edge technology, and building scalable production processes from the ground up?

Veeco is seeking a hands-on Equipment Manufacturing Engineer to help launch and scale production of an advanced optical deposition system supporting the semiconductor industry. In this highly visible role, you will work at the intersection of Manufacturing, Engineering, Quality, and Operations, serving as a key technical resource responsible for troubleshooting complex electromechanical systems, driving process improvements, implementing engineering changes, and enabling production readiness.

This is a floor-first role where success is measured by your ability to solve problems, improve processes, and partner closely with technicians during active builds. You’ll tackle challenges ranging from assembly and integration issues to root cause investigations, process development, configuration management, and production scaling. As production ramps, you’ll have the opportunity to shape manufacturing best practices, influence product manufacturability, and become a technical leader on a sophisticated capital equipment platform.

For engineers who enjoy hands-on problem-solving, production ownership, and driving measurable business impact, this is an exceptional opportunity to help build the future of semiconductor manufacturing technology.

Work Location: This position is based on-site at our manufacturing partner’s facility in Beverly, MA.
