Responsibilities

As an image processing algorithm engineer in the Product Engineering team, you will have opportunity to research and develop new image processing and machine learning techniques using high level languages such as Python or Matlab. You will get opportunities to use fundamental CS/EE/Math skills in finding and developing best in class software algorithms for various applications such as SEM image enhancement, critical geometrical information extraction, object detection and segmentation. The candidate is also expected to get their hands dirty in digging through source code, testing prototype and proposing solutions to complex problems.
Key Deliverables:
Numerical code for implementing an empirical model to accurately capture the SEM signal interaction among multiple semiconductor patterning layers.
Numerical code for critical value extraction (i.e. CD: critical dimension, OVL: overlay between two layers) based on the acquired SEM images.
Numerical code for accurately detecting objects/shapes and their locations in SEM images.
Numerical code for enhancing SEM image qualities.
Evaluation results of a variety algorithms using the key accuracy KPIs, based on both simulated and experimental SEM images.

Mission & Purpose

Who are we? ASML is an innovation leader in the global semiconductor industry. We make machines that chipmakers use to mass produce microchips. Founded in 1984 in the Netherlands with just a handful of employees, we’ve now grown to over 40,000 employees, 143 nationalities and more than 60 locations around the world. What do we do? We provide chipmakers with hardware, software and services to mass produce patterns on silicon through lithography. Our lithography systems use ultraviolet light to create billions of tiny structures on silicon that together make up a microchip. We push our technology to new limits to enable our customers to create smaller, faster and more powerful chips. Who are our people? While you may think that only engineers and mathematicians work at ASML, you'll be surprised to find out that our people come from a wide variety of backgrounds. Across ASML, we have dedicated teams that manage customer support, communications and media, IT, software development and more. Every team in the company is essential for pushing our technology and the industry forward. If you love to tackle challenges and innovate in a collaborative, supportive and inclusive environment with all the flexibility and freedom to unleash your full potential, ASML is the place to be.
