As an Advanced Processing Lithography Production Engineer, you will directly support ASML's mission to enable the world's most advanced chip manufacturing. You will contribute to the development, stabilization, and continuous improvement of lithography processes used to manufacture precision glass components. In this role, you will work in a dynamic, collaborative manufacturing environment, partnering with production teams, development groups, and cross‑functional engineering organizations to create safe, stable, and highly reliable processes that meet demanding quality and performance requirements.
Job Responsibility
Own and drive performance of lithography processes, contributing to safety, quality, yield, and process stability
Support the development, execution, and maintenance of process control strategies, acceptance criteria, and monitoring methods
Track and analyze process performance metrics to support technical decision-making and continuous improvement
Lead and execute investigations and resolution of process-related issues, deviations, and escalations
Drive continuous improvement initiatives to reduce variation, improve capability, and increase first-pass yield through data-driven analysis and structured problem-solving methods
Identify and raise process-related safety risks, supporting mitigation through process design, controls, and documented operating practices in partnership with Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS)
Develop and maintain technical documentation, including work instructions, qualification reports, test plans, and safety-related analyses, to support compliant and repeatable execution
Partner with engineering, operations, and development teams to support daily production, sustain stable processes, and enable new product introduction
Requirements
4+ years of experience in semiconductor, optics, or advanced manufacturing environments
Hands-on experience with contact photolithography, resist coating, and wet etching in semiconductor, optics, or other contamination-controlled manufacturing environments, with strong understanding of defectivity and process sensitivities
Ability to communicate clearly and effectively across engineering, operations, and all levels of management to drive alignment and execution
Ability to independently analyze data, identify trends, and apply structured problem-solving methods to define root causes and support corrective actions
Strong technical problem-solving skills, with curiosity, attention to detail, and a systematic, data-driven approach
Ability to work proactively, adapt quickly, and contribute effectively in a fast-paced manufacturing environment
Ability to organize work logically, manage multiple priorities, and drive issues to closure with appropriate escalation as needed
Experience operating in controlled manufacturing or laboratory environments, with disciplined adherence to procedures and standards
High comfort level working directly with hardware and spending significant time in cleanroom and manufacturing environments
Mindset oriented toward identifying and reducing risk, improving process robustness, and driving continuous improvement
Ability to build strong working relationships and contribute positively to a collaborative, team-based engineering culture
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Materials Science and Engineering, Physics, or a related technical field
You must be work authorized in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship
Nice to have
Familiarity with common manufacturing and problem-solving tools (e.g., DMAIC, A3, 8D, FMEA, DOE)
Working knowledge of statistical process control (SPC)
