Job Description:
Job ID: J-00296556INTRODUCTIONASML US, including its affiliates
and subsidiaries, bring together the most creative minds in science
and technology to develop lithography machines that are key to
producing faster, cheaper, more energy-efficient microchips. We
design, develop, integrate, market, and service these advanced
machines, which enable our customers - the world's leading
chipmakers - to reduce the size and increase the functionality of
their microchips, which in turn leads to smaller, more powerful
consumer electronics. Our headquarters are in Veldhoven,
Netherlands, and we have 18 office locations around the United
States including main offices in Chandler, Arizona, San Jose and
San Diego, California, Wilton, Connecticut, and Hillsboro,
Oregon.SUMMARYThe EUV Source team in San Diego operates in a
fast-paced, uniquely innovative, and challenging environment to
deliver new-to-industry products supporting the commercialization
of EUV technology by ASML. The Plasma and Laser Physics engineer
will be part of the EUV Source Performance team within ASML San
Diego. Due to high complexity of the EUV light source, we, as
Source Performance, are a dedicated team with the mission to
validate and ensure that EUV sources meet or exceed customer
performance requirements and expectations. In order to execute this
mission, EUV Source Performance acts as the critical enabler of
knowledge acquisition and transfer throughout the product
development process.This role will be supporting analytics projects
designed to enable the transfer of complex physics based knowledge
and product solutions to the rest of the organization in an
automated way. The goal of the project is to accurately predict the
optimum performance settings for individual EUV sources, ensuring
our customer service teams have all the necessary information to
quickly and effectively tune the performance with minimal impact to
availability. To be successful, the candidate must combine strong
technical skills, preferably plasma and laser expertise, problem
solving and numerical analysis skills (using MATLAB, Python,
Databricks, Julia, etc.), experience developing physics based
simulations, and knowledge of data science techniques in a cloud
environment.In addition, to be effective in the role, candidates
must possess interpersonal skills to cross functional boundaries
and to build constructive and effective relationships across the
organization and promote cross-functional and cross-sector
collaboration.This position requires access to controlled
technology, as defined in the Export Administration Regulations (15

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.Duties
and ResponsibilitiesDevelop and continuously improve models of the
EUV source. These models will be both physics based and leverage
advanced data science/analytics techniques.Define the requirements
of the data pipelines supporting those models. This will include
the application of intelligent context filters, the creation of new
KPIs that are not directly measured on the product, and data
density requirements that balance sufficient statistical accuracy
while minimizing cloud costs.Design scientific experiments to test
the performance and accuracy of models and to validate, maximize,
document and communicate the results.Work closely with and lead
cross-functional groups (systems engineering, development
engineering, scientists, global customer support personnel,
manufacturing personnel, senior management, marketing, external
customers) to set clear technical direction.Collect test data
(on-tool and using executable automatic codes) and analyze test
data, to assess performance capabilities, validate systems,
operations and service, identify potential risks, and make
suggestions for system improvement.Produce clear, concise technical
documentation in defined company formats, present results and align
with cross-functional teams.Provide feedback to the design
engineers on performance, serviceability, and reliability
improvements.Prepare and/or review system and sub-system functional
test plans and create traceability from system functional
requirements.Work with global customer support organization in
response to escalations from customer sites, by providing technical
support; including remote and on-site troubleshooting and data
analysis, developing action plans, and performing system recovery
actions.Travel as required for the purposes of alignment, planning,
