About Our Group

The Head Disc Mechanical (HDM) team is at the heart of innovation in hard disk drive (HDD) technology. We serve as the key connection between the Recording Head Technology (RHT) team, the Process & Product Development Integration team, and the manufacturing operations in Thailand. Our team leads mechanical design efforts and supports experimental validation to ensure engineering best practices are applied and learning is well-structured. We focus on collecting and analyzing critical data, conducting failure analysis (FA), and driving root cause investigations to deliver fast, high-quality solutions.

About The Role - You Will

Demonstrate the ability to rapidly absorb new technical knowledge and develop a solid understanding of hard disk drive (HDD) technology, manufacturing processes, and product performance metrics.
Provide support for ongoing engineering activities, including performance monitoring, root cause analysis (RCA), and the development of data-driven solutions to improve product quality and reliability.
Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams of engineers and analysts to gather technical insights, validate findings, and recommend actionable improvements.
Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives by identifying and exploring opportunities to apply artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to enhance workflow efficiency, predictive capabilities, and operational performance.
Gain practical experience in system integration by assisting in the design, testing, and deployment of engineering prototypes in production-representative environments. #internship

Location:

Home to over 4,000 employees, our Teparuk site specializes in producing nano-recording heads—a crucial component for the read/write functionality of hard disk drives. At our Teparuk facility, work is both productive and enjoyable. You and your colleagues can grab breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks at our 24/7 on-site canteen and coffee shop. Stay active by taking a few laps around our running track or participating in volleyball, basketball, table tennis, badminton, or football at our on-site gymnasium and fitness center. We also offer a variety of activities, including music, dance, and aerobic classes. Alternatively, unwind in our lush green areas. Consider joining any of our employee resource groups (ERGs), such as Seagate Women in Leadership Network (SWLN), Seagate PRIDE: Thailand chapter, or Seagate's parents and caregivers group. These ERGs provide educational and fun activities. Additionally, enjoy on-site festivals, celebrations, and opportunities to give back to the local community.
