What You'll Do
  • Your role involves transforming customer needs into system definitions and architecture based on analysis and modeling both individually and as part of a team of multidisciplinary subject matter experts.
  • You will generate system architectures and guiding design documentation.
  • Systems engineers at Lam are responsible for:
    • Creating the requirements
    • Coordinating modeling or simulation of key design principles and concepts
    • Architectural design options and down selection to preferred approach(es)
    • High level product structure
    • System level design documentation
    • Reliability analysis
    • Gap and risk analysis of proposed solutions
    • Test plans and coordinating test execution for verifying designs and validating tool performance.
