Software Engineer, AI Engineer

Introduction to the job

We are looking for software engineer who has a passion for designing and coding software for a distributed control system. They should also be excited about the opportunity to integrate AI into existing systems and processes to improve efficiency and efficacy.

Join ASML and you will be joining a team that operates in a fast-paced, uniquely innovative and challenging environment to create world class EUV technology within ASML.

You will work with software and control system engineers in an Agile team as you develop software in response to the system requirement and design documents. You will get to participate in designing for excellence, keeping in mind all the –cities and –abilities like reusability, modularity, simplicity, maintainability, In addition you will determine the best test methodologies, and contribute in all aspects of the software development, build, test and release cycle.

In this role, you will collaborate closely with AI engineers to identify and integrate artificial intelligence into advanced calibration systems. These systems support the operation of highly complex plasma-generating equipment. You will also partner with software architects and functional engineers to design, test, and deploy innovative software solutions for our global customer base. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting‑edge technology in a fast-paced, multidisciplinary environment.

Control system software overview:

The control loops involve data exchange at speeds up to 100 kHz while data collection for diagnostics purposes is done at up to 1 Khz rate. There is interaction between control loops running on quad core boards and platform software that runs on IBM bladecenter. Data is stored on board in postgres databases and is shipped via the fab network to data servers in San Diego.

Our graphical user interface developed using Qt serves a complex set of users - operators, engineers, scientists and customers. And we don't forget safety, the control system has a Siemens PLC to ensure both human safety is ensured and machine damage is prevented. CPDs are user facing applications that allow operators to perform diagnostics and maintenance. As well as Drivers which provide programmatic interfaces for changing physical components of the machine.

Role and responsibilities

As a Software Engineer your responsibility includes:

• Working in a team of highly skilled software and cross functional engineers responsible for delivering software solutions that enables the ever-increasing miniaturization of semiconductor technology.
• Using Agile methodology to develop the software using C++ and Python.
• Creating designs and Implement code that are modular, scalable, robust and meet customer requirements.
• Perform unit testing and on target testing to ensure the software meets the high-quality standards our customers expect.
• Evaluation of technical issues, risks, and dependencies for projects.
• Interfacing with stakeholders to gather a complete understanding of their requirements.
• Verify stability, interoperability, portability, security, or scalability of system architecture.
• You will also participate in continuous process improvement activities aimed at ensuring the processes and tools used throughout software development lifecycle are increasing the team’s ability to develop high quality software in the most efficient manner.

Education and experience

• Requires Minimum of BS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering or other related Eng/Science fields. MS or Ph.D in relevant field is a plus.
• 0-2 years in technical development role with strong software engineering skills.
• 0-2 years of working C++ experience and/or Python required.
• Experience with ML algorithms and architectures such as CNNs, RNNs, and GANs.
• Experience designing, developing and deploying LLM for various applications as well as integrating with existing LLMs via API
• Experiencing developing CI/CD pipelines incorporating AI/LLM a plus
• Participated and assisted in the delivery of at least one complex software product working within the context of a team.
• Hands on experience with refactoring for performance and scalability – complex multi-processor…
