Senior Mechanical Design Engineer – Foundry Engineering

Role Summary

Support internal and external customers to enable successful adoption of Qorvo Process Design Kits (PDKs) and Assembly Design Kits (ADKs), focusing on package design, documentation, training, and manufacturability.

This role combines hands-on mechanical/package design, CAD modeling and drawing creation, documentation development, and cross-functional customer support within the Foundry Engineering group.

Experience Level

Senior-level. Minimum of 5 years of relevant mechanical design, packaging, or product engineering experience (or equivalent combination of education and experience).

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include package design, documentation, training, and customer support for PDK/ADK enablement.

• Support customers in the use and adoption of PDKs and ADKs for RF and electro-mechanical product development.
• Design and develop laminate-based package solutions using options defined within PDKs.
• Create and maintain 3D models, 2D drawings, and package design collateral using CAD tools (e.g., SolidWorks).
• Develop and improve training materials, application notes, and ADK documentation.
• Partner with Foundry Engineering, Mechanical, Electrical, and Applications teams to ensure design accuracy and usability.
• Provide guidance on manufacturability, thermal considerations, and mechanical integration.
• Build and maintain Bills of Materials (BOMs) and package documentation aligned with releases.
• Support design reviews, customer engagements, and technical discussions related to packaging.
• Troubleshoot design, integration, and documentation issues and drive improvements to PDK/ADK content.
• Ensure documentation complies with GD&T standards, drafting practices, and internal specifications.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience; preferred qualifications listed separately.

• Minimum of 5 years experience in mechanical design, packaging, product engineering, or a related field (or equivalent combination of education and experience).
• Hands-on experience with CAD tools such as SolidWorks or equivalent.
• Experience creating mechanical drawings, assemblies, and managing BOMs.
• Working knowledge of GD&T and standard mechanical drafting practices.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills and ability to work directly with internal teams and external customers.
• Proven ability to work collaboratively in a cross-functional engineering environment.

Nice-to-have / preferred:

• Experience with RF products or electronics/semiconductor packaging.
• Familiarity with laminate package design and substrate technologies.
• Experience working with PDKs, ADKs, or similar design enablement tools.
• Experience developing technical training materials, user guides, or application documentation.
• Knowledge of PLM/PDM systems and configuration management processes.
• Experience supporting customer-facing engineering or applications roles and exposure to manufacturing processes for packaging.

Education Requirements

Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline is specified. The posting also accepts an equivalent combination of education and experience in lieu of the degree.
