As an MSL Engineer, you will be responsible for characterising media, media processes, and media-related components using advanced surface analysis and evaluation techniques to ensure compliance with current and future product design requirements. You will support the development of surface characterisation methodologies, analyse media performance, and contribute to product reliability and quality improvement initiatives. Working closely with Process Engineering, Evaluation, Failure Analysis, and R&D teams, you will conduct validation, evaluation, and defect investigations, providing technical insights that support product development and manufacturing excellence. You will also assist in managing laboratory operations, ensuring analytical capabilities remain effective, reliable, and compliant with quality and safety standards. Key Responsibilities Support the management and execution of Media Surface Laboratory (MSL) activities involving validation, evaluation, and characterisation of media, media processes, and related components. Develop and improve surface analysis methodologies to assess compliance with design specifications and reliability requirements. Perform characterisation, analysis, and interpretation of media surface conditions, defects, and process-related variations. Review, analyse, and publish evaluation and failure analysis results to support engineering and development activities. Collaborate with Process Engineers, Evaluation Engineers, and R&D teams to assess analytical results and recommend improvement actions. Support daily laboratory operations and prioritise evaluation and failure analysis activities to ensure timely completion of assigned work. Coordinate with external laboratories for specialised surface analysis services and benchmarking activities when required. Manage laboratory equipment performance, including maintenance, calibration, troubleshooting, and vendor coordination. Ensure compliance with ISO quality standards, laboratory procedures, and safety requirements. Prepare technical reports, presentations, and documentation to support engineering reviews and management discussions. Perform any other duties and responsibilities assigned by the supervisor.
Education Bachelor's Degree in Materials Science, Chemistry, Physics, Chemical Engineering, Materials Engineering, or a related discipline. Experience Fresh graduates are welcome to apply. Prior experience in materials characterisation, laboratory analysis, failure analysis, semiconductor, HDD, or advanced manufacturing environments will be an advantage. Experience working with analytical instruments and laboratory testing methodologies is preferred. Technical Skills (Must Have) Basic understanding of materials science, chemistry, surface analysis, or characterisation techniques.
