Introduction to the job

Do you want to contribute and participate in the design of most advanced ASML scanners? You have a passion for physics understanding of our systems and diffraction based imaging? Are you fascinated by lithography?

Then EUV Imaging performance is where you need to be!

As an EUV Imaging Performance Design Engineer you contribute to the development of ASML products by testing, analyzing, qualifying, troubleshooting – and understanding our systems. We are responsible for the imaging performance of the system as a whole.

You will be a key player in making the performance of our scanners meet our customer’s needs and will be working with our EUV flagships both on low NA (install base and NXE3800) and our brand newly introduced imaging records breaking high NA EXE5000 tools.

Role and responsibilities

As EUV Imaging Performance Design Engineer you will be responsible for:

  • Assessing, trouble-shooting and optimizing imaging performance of real scanners who have just come into existence,
  • Developing advanced imaging tests to assess scanner budgets,
  • Your learnings based on data will feed into the design of our products.
  • Generating proof book data of our advanced scanners and support marketing,
  • Predicting imaging performance of our tools using our litho simulation package taking scanner optics, mask, resist and illumination settings into account.
  • Communication with a wide range of stakeholders such as (System) engineers of various scanner components, marketing, suppliers (e.g. Zeiss), external partners (e.g. IMEC) and possibly ASML customers, and
  • Travelling to customer and partners, publications and participation in conferences is a possibility.

You will be working in the imaging team which is placed in the EUV system performance agile release train. The team has members with diverse backgrounds, experience levels and character. We want to enable you to be a great engineer and will – together with your drive an engagement – take care that you can grow far!

Education and experience

For this role you need a solid technical background, MSc/PhD in e.g. Optical Engineering, applied Physics, Physics. Also, you need the following experience:

  • Solid theoretical and/or experimental skills, supported by experience with mathematical modeling, statistics and model verification.
  • programming / scripting skills in python is a strong pre
  • Lithography imaging and simulations is a strong pre
  • ASML EUV scanner knowledge is a pre
  • Lithography understanding is a pre
  • Ability to generate and analyze large data volumes

Skills

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 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.

  • eager to learn and go in depths to understand the physics
  • out-of-the-box thinker
  • ability to extract valuable information, even from incomplete data

Other information

Within ASML the sector Development & Engineering is responsible for the specification and the design of the ASML products. The department System Performance is responsible for timely and cost-effective qualification of overlay, focus, imaging and productivity performance of functional modules, machines and customer applications. You will be working in a multidisciplinary project team, in a dynamic and high-tech environment.

Imaging competence will allow you to learn the basic principles of our lithographic system, to be in the heart of its development, understand contribution of various system components (aberrations, focus, dose, illumination, dynamics etc.) on the basic imaging functionality, collaborate with various functional clusters as well as our supporting competencies (resist, reticle, wafer metrology).

This position requires access to controlled technology, as defined in the United States Export Administration Regulations (15 C.F.R. § 730, et seq.). Qualified candidates must be legally authorized to access such controlled technology prior to beginning work. Business demands may require ASML to proceed with candidates who are immediately eligible to access controlled technology.
