Job Description

Introduction to the job

The employee will be responsible for applied R&D in the areas of:

• Numerical techniques for Process Modeling and Optimization
• Machine Learning for Computational Lithography and Image Enhancement
• Software prototyping and development

Role and responsibilities

As part of the ASML Brion Advanced Technology Team you will be part of a dynamic team working on holistic solutions for semiconductor patterning. You will have the opportunity to work on a wide range of feasibility studies and prototype development to enhance our existing products and develop new solutions to extend Moore’s Law. In particular the candidate will have the opportunity to work on a variety of challenging problems such as:

Machine Learning (ML) based feasibility study to improve our current Optical Proximity Correction (OPC) and Process Model solutions, including ML based SRAF - Sub Resolution Asist Features extractions, ML based OPC speed up, Machine Learning model accuracy improvement, Image Quality Improvement, OPC Multi-variable-solver improvement, CTM solver improvement.

Investigate Pattern Coverage/Selection Technology for different Machine Learning Algorithm

Work with R&D and Product Engineering to integrate and verify new Machine Learning algorithm and utilities on our platforms (CPU/GPU).

Education and experience

• Ph.D. or Master’s degree in Mathematics, Physics, Electrical / Computer Engineering, or related fields.
• Three or more years of experience in Computational Lithography, Semiconductor process technology, Simulation, and analysis
• Good working knowledge of Optical Lithography and Computational Lithography products.
• Application of machine Learning to technical problems
• Data mining and reduction techniques
• C++ / Java/Python and Scripting coding
• Demonstrated capabilities for conducting independent R & D and contributing to cross-functional, team-based feasibility studies and prototyping.

Skills

Working at the cutting edge of tech, you’ll always have new challenges and new problems to solve – and working together is the only way to do that. You won’t work in a silo. Instead, you’ll be part of a creative, dynamic work environment where you’ll collaborate with supportive colleagues. There is always space for creative and unique points of view. You’ll have the flexibility and trust to choose how best to tackle tasks and solve problems.
To thrive in this job, you’ll need the following skills:

• Excellent team, communication and organizational skills.
• Willingness to work independently and think ‘outside the box’ to identify, analyze and solve both simulation and experimental challenges in a dynamic, applied R&D organization.
