Within ASML, the sector of Development & Engineering (D&E) is responsible for the specification and the design of ASML products. The Proto Operations team in the Foundation support the Top (TMM RMM) and Module integrations with (sub-)system level Test-Rigs; drive the planning of these test activities; report on status and progress; maintain and drive the configurations and needed adjustments to the Test-Rigs; Ensure an integral test-rig roadmap for Wilton D&E.
As a Proto Engineer you will be part of an interdisciplinary team, of the Foundation Proto Engineering team and the members of the System Integration guild, that tests and integrates our systems for Development and Engineering (D&E). Our Wilton prototype modules consists of an intricate network of optics, electronics, mechatronics, and control systems. As a member of the Machine Integration Team (MIT), your role as a Proto Engineer is key to building a better product though testing, issue identification and resolution, and finding potential design and process improvements. Being responsible to build in and test proto hardware and software (reticle stage & handler, wafer alignment sensor, wafer table, etc) on an fully functional Twinscan Prototype or Test Rig with minimum lead-time and maximum quality. Be expert on Top module and system operations and troubleshooting to optimize uptime availability and minimize downtime. For operating and maintaining test rigs used for design qualification, integration, reliability, and issue resolution. Also contribute towards an optimal design for the complete product and the creation of the product documentation necessary for pilot production
