Job Description:
Job ID: J-00298192Introduction to the jobAs the worlds leading
semiconductor equipment manufacturer, ASML enables chipmakers to
produce cheaper, speedier chips and to produce them faster thereby
enabling all the technology you use today. The systems we produce
integrate several large and sophisticated machines, themselves each
a feat of engineering innovation, precision, and speed.In the CLS
division in San Diego, we design and manufacture Deep Ultraviolet
(DUV) lasers, used directly in the chipmaking process. Far from a
basic consumer laser, these machines are complex, powerful, and
flexible. The lasers we make require: durable and high-speed
precise motion-controlled optics to maintain wavelength to
femtometer accuracy under high laser powers; advanced materials to
endure the harsh Fluorine-rich environments and high powers; clever
mechanical designs to allow high performance and fit all the parts
within a confined space, but still allow easy manufacturing and
servicing; very fast high power electronics and electrical designs
to deliver short high voltage pulses at precise timing to control
pulse energy within hundredths of a percent; gas flows at hurricane
speeds to keep the laser discharge area clear; cutting edge
controllers and algorithms to deliver stable and consistent
performance and automate all operations; and advanced real-time
electronics, firmware and software to control the laser and
interact with other equipment. The laser needs to minimize use of
expensive or rare resources like energy or Neon gas. It needs to
actively control temperatures, pressures, gas concentrations and
voltages precisely to maintain good performance. It must react
instantly to changing customer demands and environmental
conditions. And it needs to do all of this, operating continuously
and reliably for months while producing billions of perfect light
pulses, without any human intervention or downtime.Solving these
challenges requires expertise in system engineering, optics,
physics, controls, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering,
test engineering, embedded software and firmware, manufacturing,
industrialization, and more. If you like extreme challenges, and
passion for technology and innovation, and want to help bring the
next generation of technology to the world, then come join
ASML.Role and responsibilitiesThe Cymer Light Source team in San
Diego operates in a fast-paced, innovative, and challenging
environment to develop DUV lasers and support technologies to
enable both current and future lithography generations. Our
technological solutions deliver both new-to-industry products and
important enhancements that improve performance and reliability and
reduce costs. The projects are characterized by rapid
productization to support an aggressive deployment plan for the DUV
technology within ASML. The Algorithms Team is responsible for the
development and engineering of the control loops and automation for
the laser system. The DUV source is complex, dynamic,
high-precision, and powerful; it demands the control engineers on
the Algorithms Team to engage in the design and development of
sophisticated feedback controllers, algorithms, signal processing,
and data analysis.Serve as a technical expert for one or more
control subsystems or features, capable of independent decision
making for critical technical issues.Applies broad knowledge in
sensors, actuators, control algorithms, automation, software,
signal processing, and data analysis methods and tools to drive
control system improvements to enable improved laser light
properties and higher system availability.Leads the development and
integration of innovative control system solutions to enable
stable, efficient, and reliable production of DUV light.Leads the
design and building of tools that allow debugging, analysis, and
evaluation of control system performance. Leads the root cause
analysis for control system failures in products for integration
and fielded units during escalations.Performs integration
activities including troubleshooting the control system, designing
and executing test plans and test automation, to ensure the
algorithms functions as designed.Documents work results with
requirements, design specifications, procedures, and training
materials.Mentors junior engineers.Education and experienceRequires
minimum of a Masters degree in Engineering or Physics.A PhD with
specialization in control systems and 5+ years of industry
experience is strongly preferred.SkillsLinear systems, feedback
control, discrete-time control, signal processing, filtering and
estimation, system identification, and non-linear systems
postgraduate courses and experience will be highly regarded.Good
Matlab skills and experience.Experience designing practical
discrete-time feedback control systems of significant
complexity.Ability to design and analyze feedback control and
estimation systems using classical, modern or nonlinear techniques
and theories.Ability to quickly process and analyze large data sets
from variable sources, including data translation, statistical
analysis, and effective reporting through written and/or graphical
formats.Some background in data science is a plus.Working knowledge
of C/C++ desirable.Understanding of embedded software systems
desirable.Good written and verbal communication skills.Has led a
successfully completed project.Ability to carry a product design
from conception into production.Project Engineering experience
including leading small technical teams is a plusAbility to cross
functional boundaries to build relationships with all areas in the
company, to understand and reconcile higher level company and
customer needs.Ability to use MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and
electronic e-mail systemPHYSICAL DEMANDS AND WORK ENVIRONMENTThe
