Job Description:

Introduction

ASML gives the world's leading chipmakers the power to mass produce patterns on silicon, helping to make computer chips smaller, faster and greener. ASML is the leading supplier to the semiconductor industry, driving lithography system innovation.

Our Metrology department facilitates solutions that can quickly measure imaging performance on silicon wafers and feeds that data back into the lithography system in real-time, helping to keep lithography performance stable in high-volume chip manufacturing. 

At ASML our metrology software orchestrates the behavior of powerful mechatronic modules, so that together they achieve an extraordinary combination of speed and accuracy. For example, one such module (a wafer stage), accelerates faster than a fighter jet to enable the ASML machine to position a silicon wafer in less than a second, with nanometer accuracy! As well as using metrology systems to position wafers, ASML also uses metrology systems to measure and compensate for sub-nanometer inaccuracies that inevitably creep in due to material imperfections, temperature fluctuations, and/or atmospheric pressure changes. To achieve such challenging results, the best metrology systems ever imagined are required.

We are looking to hire strong Python Software Designers who enjoy translating functional requirements into lean software designs.

Job Mission

Unlocking the full potential of the Metrology scanner to do the perfect exposure in a nanometer world!
