Introduction

ASML brings together the most creative minds in science and technology to develop lithography machines that are key to producing faster, cheaper, more energy-efficient microchips. We design, develop, integrate, market and service these advanced machines, which enable our customers – the world’s leading chipmakers – to reduce the size and increase the functionality of their microchips, which in turn leads to smaller, more powerful consumer electronics.

The growing complexity of our machines and our aim to deliver higher quality faster, is creating a lot of focus on the area of Engineering Simulation at ASML. In our department of Engineering IT Services we are looking for an experienced MATLAB Application Support Engineer passionate about supporting engineers with running their workflows using MATLAB products, who likes working in a multidisciplinary environment and who would like to be part of one of the biggest high-tech communities worldwide.
