Job Description

In the application software team in Brno we are passionate about the development of automation/application software for Transmission Electron Microscopes (TEM). This software offers solutions to our life sciences, material sciences and semiconductors customers, by providing dedicated workflows.

We are working on an automated TEM imaging system which is the world's first commercially released scanning transmission electron microscope to use machine learning to automate high-quality data collection. Designed exclusively for the semiconductor industry, this innovative solution removes the barriers to automation by enabling semiconductor labs to automatically acquire and measure critical dimensions on semiconductor devices during development or in support of manufacturing. Our applications have been primarily developed in C#.Net on Windows platform by distributed scrum teams. In addition to .Net, Machine Learning part has been mostly written in Python.
