The Equipment Engineer role can be broadly defined as the responsibility for the installation, functionality, and maintenance of an equipment toolset. This includes all the hardware and software in the toolset, as well as the interface to any other systems that the tool must connect to for its proper operation. A successful equipment engineer maintains the tool performance as measured by availability to production and primary quality metrics. Utilizing data analysis to drive the priority equipment engineering within the area.

Safety & Quality:

Safety and quality are primary characteristics of the work being performed. This includes completing the required safety training and conducting all work in accordance with safety policies and laws. A safe and high-quality demeanor means following up and looking out for related issues immediately and works towards resolution with partners.
