Internship- Mechanical Analysis Engineer

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 energy-efficient 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 in Chandler 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 on-site in Wilton CT which has both R&D and manufacturing operations. We design and produce multiple sub-system modules that are shipped to our headquarters in Veldhoven The Netherlands where they are integrated into the full lithography machine.

This position may require access to controlled technology as defined in the Export Administration Regulations (15 C.F.R. 730 et seq.). As a condition of employment qualified candidates must be legally authorized to access such controlled technology prior to beginning work. Business demands may require the Company to proceed with candidates who are immediately eligible to access controlled technology.

Role and responsibilities

As a Summer Intern in Mechanical Analysis you will participate in developing analytical and numerical models of portions of the lithography system and/or associated tooling that show technical feasibility and provide guidance to design engineers. You will work on sub-systems involving robotics mechatronics precision mechanics and/or opto-mechanics. Precision machine design at ASML starts with understanding the functional requirements deriving specifications and ensuring those performance specifications are met through a combination of analysis and testing. You will collaborate with design engineers and other analysts in a multidiscipline project team to perform engineering analysis build and test prototypes and support system integration and testing. You may also be involved system optimization by addressing technical concerns providing guidance and modeling assistance in a wide variety of application areas particularly those involving structural mechanics heat transfer fluid dynamics electromagnetics and optics.
