Facility Design Engineer – Multiple Disciplines (Semiconductor)

IAQ ENGINEERING (SG) PTE. LTD.

This is a generic job description for multiple positions within our facility engineering team. We are hiring engineers with design and field experience in anyone of the following areas:

· ACMV / Cleanroom HVAC

· Process Utilities (chilled water, PCW, exhaust)

· Water Systems (UPW or WWTP)

· Gas & Chemical Systems

· Electrical (power distribution)

· Controls & FCMS (SCADA/PLC)

You do not need expertise in all areas. You only need deep, hands-on experience in at least one discipline and a willingness to coordinate across disciplines. Each team member owns their domain; we collaborate as a group to deliver end-to-end facility solutions.

Weare looking for engineers who want to move beyond siloed roles and become facility engineering specialists – bridging design intent with real-world field execution.

Key Responsibilities

1. In-House Engineering Design (Within Your Discipline)

Depending on your core discipline, you will:

  • Perform detailed engineering calculations, drawings, and specifications for your assigned facility systems (e.g., HVAC, water, gas, electrical, or controls)
  • Develop, review, and optimize designs for your discipline area within our core fab systems – whether that is ACMV/cleanroom, process utilities, water, gas/chemical, electrical, or controls
  • Ensure your designs comply with SEMI standards, local codes, and semiconductor industrial facility benchmarks

2. Multidisciplinary Coordination (As a Team Member)

  • Coordinate with colleagues across Mechanical, Electrical, Process, Gas, Controls, and Cleanroom disciplines to eliminate design clashes – each of you bringing your own domain expertise.
  • Review subcontractor and vendor detailed designs for technical accuracy, spatial routing, and constructability within your area.
  • Participate in technical workshops, 3D model coordination meetings, and formal design reviews.

3. Construction & Subcontractor Interface

· Work closely with subcontractors during construction, installation, and site execution

· Resolve site technical issues, routing conflicts, and design discrepancies under real-world conditions

· Support RFI responses and engineering clarifications within your discipline

· Ensure installation aligns with design intent and commissioning requirements

· Participate in site coordination meetings and progress reviews

4. Commissioning & System Readiness Support

· Ensure your systems are designed with commissioning in mind (proper test points, isolation valves, maintenance accessibility)

· Support FAT/SAT preparation and execution for your systems

· Assist in troubleshooting, system validation, and stabilization during startup

Technical Skills & Experience Requirements

Core Requirements (All Candidates)

· Industry Experience: Proven background in facility engineering or design within a semiconductor fab, cleanroom, or related high-tech industrial environment.

· Domain Expertise: Strong engineering design capability in at least one of the following domains:

  • ACMV/HVAC: Chilled water, air handling systems, and cleanroom air balancing.
  • Water Systems: UPW production and WWTP engineering.
  • Gas Systems: Bulk, toxic, flammable, or specialty gas piping and delivery matrices.
  • FCMS & Controls: SCADA/PLC interfaces, instrumentation, and hook-up control signaling.
  • Electrical: Power distribution, single-line diagram design/review, and load calculations.
  • Electrical: Power distribution, single-line diagram design/review, and load calculations.

· Software Proficiency: Hands-on capability in AutoCAD, Revit, or Navisworks for design validation and spatial coordination.

· Standards & Commissioning: Working knowledge of SEMI standards and commissioning principles (FAT/SAT, system turnover).

Discipline Note

We are hiring fora team, not a single hybrid role. If you have strong design and field experience in any one of the semiconductor facility disciplines listed above, you are encouraged to apply. Cross-disciplinary knowledge is a plus but not required.

Key Attributes

  • Strong construction mindset (not purely office-based engineering)
  • Problem solver in real-world site conditions
  • Comfortable working with subcontractors and vendors
  • Detail-oriented but practical engineering approach
  • Able to bridge design intent and field execution

· Team player who collaborates across disciplines
