About the position

The EUV Research Scientist position at ASML offers a unique opportunity to join a dynamic and innovative Technology Development team focused on the advancement of high-power extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light sources. This role is pivotal in conceiving and demonstrating the technologies necessary for the next generation of EUV sources, which are critical for the lithography industry. The EUV source technology development team is tasked with identifying system-level operating points for stable EUV production generated from laser-produced plasmas, charting the path to increase EUV power to meet future industry needs. As a member of the EUV Source Technology Research team, you will be based in San Diego, where you will engage in identifying novel solutions that define the next generation of EUV source architecture. Your work will encompass a wide range of activities, from concept definition and design to prototyping and full-scale performance testing of complete EUV source systems. This comprehensive approach allows for system-level performance demonstrations that can be directly transferred to product development. You will collaborate closely with System Engineering and Development and Engineering (D&E) teams to establish a roadmap for future generations of EUV sources. We are seeking candidates with a strong background in applied physics, plasmas, metrology, optics, systems dynamics, control theory, lasers, and experimental design. Your expertise will be instrumental in pushing the boundaries of these technologies and contributing to the future of EUV products. This position requires access to controlled technology, and candidates must be legally authorized to access such technology prior to beginning work. Business demands may necessitate ASML to prioritize applicants who are immediately eligible to access controlled technology.

Responsibilities

  • Designs EUV performance/plasma controls experiments at the system/sub-system level.
  • Performs tests, analyzes test results, and extracts actionable knowledge from the data.
  • Familiar with previous results and able to contextualize new experimental outcomes.
  • Breaks down complex problems, identifies knowledge gaps, and develops technical strategies and test plans.
  • Works independently and in teams to deliver on a stated objective, whether it be the pursuit of new knowledge, the demonstration of a new capability, or the characterization of existing performance.
  • Leads and/or participates in preliminary and critical design reviews.
  • Delivers technical and progress reports and presentations to upper management and internal/external customers.

Requirements

  • Requires a MS or PhD in either Electrical or Mechanical Engineering with focus on Robotics or Dynamical Systems or Controls or Systems or Physics or other related science disciplines.
  • Minimum of 4 years in technical engineering roles.
  • Hands-on experience with complex system design and build, characterization, and troubleshooting.
  • Ability to understand software written in C++ or other object-oriented programming language is highly desired.
  • Must be proficient with performing data analysis using Python, Matlab, or other similar tools.
  • Skills for creating application software or writing automated test scripts (e.g.: using Python or Matlab) are highly desired.
  • Strong understanding and experience on signal processing theory and techniques is highly desired.
  • Experience with image processing is a plus.
  • Understanding of control theory with educational experience is desired.
  • Understanding of scientific research methods and strong curiosity.
  • Ability to clearly and logically communicate ideas and knowledge to various audiences.
  • Familiar with technical aspects of engineering modules with multiple challenging mechanical, material, physical and optical constraints and interfaces.
  • Possess a good understanding of lasers, sensors, actuators, mechanics, physics and/or metrology/optic.

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience with image processing is a plus.
  • Understanding of control theory with educational experience is desired.
