About this role

ZEISS Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology​

Enabler for smaller, more powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips​

Working for tomorrow today. ​

Around 80 percent of all microchips worldwide are produced using ZEISS technologies. As the centerpiece of every electronically controlled system, they have become an integral part of our everyday lives – whether in smartphones, smart homes or smart factories. ZEISS is a technology leader in the field of semiconductor manufacturing equipment. With high-precision lithography optics, photomask systems and process control solutions, ZEISS enables the production of ever smaller, increasingly powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips, and thus plays a pivotal role in the age of micro- and nanoelectronics.

In the Actuators and Sensors team, we investigate the physical and technical aspects of positioning and position metrology of the high-precision optics in our systems. Our task is to develop new products and to ensure the optical performance of these systems through modeling and simulation.

Your Role

• You will contribute to the development of high-end EUV lithography systems, thereby preparing the technological foundation for future microchip generations.

• In the project team, you will work on strategies to ensure the precise relative positioning of optical components

• You will build a deep understanding of the optical metrology systems used in the lithography scanner through physical modeling and simulations.

• You will develop a balanced system design, taking into account both performance and cost requirements.

• You will derive specifications for the system and its subcomponents, for both opto-mechanics and opto-electronics.

• You will develop numerical models of sensor behavior and their impact on system performance

Your Profile

• You have a very good university degree in physics, mathematics, computer science, or a similar field, ideally complemented by a PhD or relevant professional experience. • You have solid knowledge of physical and technical optics and the motivation to continuously expand this expertise. • You have very good simulation and programming skills, ideally in Python, which you have already applied in larger projects. • You have extensive knowledge in algorithm development, particularly in optimization. • You have professional proficiency in English; German language skills are an advantage.
