Java Software Engineer - with Data Structures & Algorithms skills

Java developers at ASML are passionate about engineering. They create software crucial to the development of next-generation microchips. People often refer to ASML lithography systems as ‘the most complex machines in the world’, and these unique machines need unique software engineering solutions. There are no borrowed patterns or published designs to use: every line of code is a result of technical conversations and brainstorming between colleagues with diverse engineering backgrounds.

The work of our software developers combines extreme complexity and large volumes of data to find solutions to correct nanometer-sized inaccuracies in the chipmaking process. They work in multi-skilled teams alongside physicists and mathematicians, to determine the best combination of parameter adjustments to meet customer’s goals.

The Job Mission is to design, develop and test application software for the semiconductor industry. The software supports our customers to set up, analyze and execute on improvements for their IC manufacturing process.

You and your team are responsible for requirement engineering, design, implementation, testing and integration. It is an Agile team and consists of software development engineers, tester, functional experts, product owner and scrum master.

In ASML, we mainly use Java to develop Litho InSight, software with a user-friendly interface that our customers use to optimize the chip manufacturing process. Our software takes the vast amount of metrology data produced by YieldStar systems and translates it into instructions that the chip manufacturing equipment can use to correct for production inaccuracies.
 
Java is also used for our diagnostic tools. You’ll use Java to further develop these tools that analyze the logs and data produced by ASML lithography systems. Diagnostic tools help our customer support engineers get insights in the cause of distortions in the chipmaking process. 

As a senior java developer, you’ll: 

• Work with product development and engineering teams, from initial idea to full delivery of features.

• Pro-actively seek interaction with software architects to review designs and contribute to the improvement of our software architecture.

• Communicate with customers and end users to get the correct requirements.

• Continuously improve our product’s code structure and architecture to achieve a better quality, scalability and maintainability.

• Have a strong drive to acquire domain knowledge; you are not just a programmer but you also join the team in taking functional responsibility.

• Have the flexibility to work on analytics, algorithms, front-end or back-end.

• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Computer Science or similar.

• At least 6 years of experience with Java languages.

• Experience in the complete software development life cycle and Scrum framework.

• Strong in coding practices, including conducting peer code reviews, developing unit tests, debugging skills, documentation and experience with agile methods.

• Experience in designing, developing, and testing for performance, scalability and availability.

• Strong in Data Structures & Algorithms.

• Experience with formal design methods like UML.

• Experience in UI development using preferably JavaFx and ReactJS.

• Experience with Git repository and Git workflow and CI/CD DevOps tools (e.g. Bitbucket, Bamboo or similar).

• Fluent in English.

Working at the cutting edge of tech, you’ll always have new challenges and new problems to solve – and working together is the only way to do that. You won’t work in a silo. Instead, you’ll be part of a creative, dynamic work environment where you’ll collaborate with supportive colleagues. There is always space for creative and unique points of view. You’ll have the flexibility and trust to choose how best to tackle tasks and solve problems.
To thrive in this job, you’ll need the following Skills: 

• You’re enthusiastic about solving complex problems and translating them into modern, elegant and simple solutions.

• You have a passion to work with your team members to deliver high-quality products.

• You are a team player who fosters collaboration and willing to help each other.

• You communicate effectively with technical and non-technical people.

• You like to discuss technical challenges and you’re motivated to push the boundaries of technology.

• You have Strong interpersonal analytical skills, and the drive to understand the context.

• You have a continuous improvement mindset and can-do attitude.
