Principal Mechanical Analysis Architect

Introduction to the Job

ASML 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 energyefficient microchips. We design develop integrate market and service these advanced machines which enable our customers the worlds 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 inChandler Arizona San Jose and San Diego California Wilton Connecticut and Hillsboro Oregon.

Founded in 1984 ASML is the worlds leading provider of lithography systems for the semiconductor industry manufacturing complex machines that are critical to the production of integrated circuits or microchips. The mission of the Mechanical Development department is to design and develop the complex mechanics for these machines which are some of the highest precision products ever produced in the world. This position is based onsite in Wilton CT which has both R&D and manufacturing operations. We design and produce multiple subsystem modules that are shipped to our headquarters in Veldhoven The Netherlands where they are integrated into the full lithography machine.
