Advanced Processing Bonding & Contacting Production Engineer

Introduction

As an Advanced Processing Bonding & Contacting Production Engineer you will directly support ASMLs mission to enable the worlds most advanced chip manufacturing. You will contribute to the development stabilization and continuous improvement of optical bonding and contacting 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 crossfunctional engineering organizations to create safe stable and highly reliable processes that meet demanding quality and performance requirements.

Role Overview

The Optical Bonding & Contacting Production Engineer (PE) supports assigned manufacturing processes contributing to their stability capability and continuous improvement under the guidance of senior engineers. The PE develops technical depth in optical bonding and contacting processes translating design intent and production requirements into wellcontrolled repeatable operations.

The PE partners closely with production equipment engineering safety quality and new product development organizations to identify process risks reduce variation improve yield and resolve technical issues. This role builds a strong foundation in understanding and controlling critical process variables applying datadriven problem solving and implementing sustainable improvements.

This is a highly handson role that requires regular direct engagement with production hardware and a strong presence in cleanroom and manufacturing environments. The PE supports process documentation equipment qualifications and process changes throughout the manufacturing lifecyclefrom introduction and rampup to sustained production and continuous improvement.
This role is well suited for earlycareer engineers seeking handson manufacturing experience and the opportunity to grow into increased technical and process ownership.

Key Responsibilities

• Support ownership of optical bonding and contacting processes contributing to safety quality yield and process stability under guidance of senior engineers.
• Support the development execution and maintenance of process control strategies acceptance criteria and monitoring methods.
• Track and analyze process performance metrics to support technical decisionmaking and continuous improvement.
• Participate in investigations and resolution of processrelated issues deviations and escalations.
• Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives to reduce variation improve capability and increase firstpass yield through datadriven analysis and structured problem-solving methods.
• Identify and raise processrelated 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 safetyrelated 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.

Qualifications

• Ability to communicate clearly and effectively across engineering operations and all levels of management to drive alignment and execution.
• Ability to analyze data identify trends and apply structured problemsolving methods to define root causes and support corrective actions.
• Strong technical problemsolving skills with curiosity attention to detail and a systematic datadriven approach.
• Ability to work proactively adapt quickly and contribute effectively in a fastpaced manufacturing environment.
• Ability to organize work logically manage multiple priorities and drive issues to closure with appropriate guidance.
• 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 teambased engineering culture.

Education

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Optical Engineering Materials Science and Engineering Mechanical Engineering Physics or a related technical field.
• 2 years of related experience

Preferred Experience

• Handson experience working directly with mechanical systems tools fixtures equipment or custom hardware including troubleshooting and rootcause identification through physical experimentation.
• Experience working with contaminationsensitive processes or precision components.
• Exposure to semiconductor optics or advanced manufacturing environments.
• Familiarity with common manufacturing and problemsolving tools (e.g. DMAIC A3 8D FMEA DOE).
• Working knowledge of statistical process control (SPC).
• Experience with scripting or software development for manufacturing or engineering applications; C# experience a plus.
