Every day, more than 38,000 ASML employees around the globe come to work or sign on remotely with the reassuring knowledge that their jobs have real positive impact on the world. Though we’re diverse, we’re connected by our purpose and values. Together, we challenge, collaborate and care, pushing technology to new limits to unlock the potential of people and society.
It’s amazing to think that just about everyone has benefitted from the technology we enable here at ASML. From internet connectivity to advances in medical imaging devices, modern society relies on semiconductors to drive progress and solve some of its toughest challenges, now and in the future.
Small chips, big impact
The technology we work on at ASML is highly complex, and yet it makes up just one crucial part of the six key steps in semiconductor manufacturing. The EUV (extreme ultraviolet) lithography, DUV (deep ultraviolet) lithography and metrology & inspection systems we make are some of the most advanced chipmaking equipment in the world. They play a vital role in driving advances in semiconductors that, in turn, enable technology that helps move society forward.
Our unique contribution
It’s this opportunity to make a real difference that drives every employee who works here, from engineer to assistant, HR manager to CEO. And it’s why our new ‘We are ASML’ video follows the stories of four employees – Rakesh, Ingrid, Janine and Gidion – whose lives have been changed for the better by technological advancements made possible by ASML.

Changing the world, one nanometer at a time
“Rakesh, Ingrid, Janine and Gidion are representative of so many of us at ASML,” explains Eliza Menzel, head of creative content at ASML and driving force behind the ‘We are ASML’ video project. “None of us at ASML knows exactly how our technology will be used for good. We only know that it will be. I hope that this video helps demystify what ASML does, who we are and why we’re proud to work here.”
