Introduction of the job

ASML is seeking a Mechatronics Design Engineer to join the Wilton CT development location as we break new ground in the emerging field of photolithography. As a Mechatronics Engineer you will specify design develop realize integrate and test modules and tools in a multi-disciplined team collaborating closely with cross-functional partners and suppliers. You will deliver within system specifications cost targets and project schedules ensuring timely realization of solutions that contribute to competitive achievable and serviceable products. The mechatronics engineer provides discipline specific expertise throughout the entire product life cycle. This Includes concept feasibility new product introduction existing product sustainment and customer facing problem resolution. The position requires highly motivated extremely organized and self-driven individuals.

The mechatronics engineer will work on mechatronics precision handling of delicate parts product and system integration and software functionality all specific to ASML products. The main focus will be mechatronics and control systems on advanced modules in lithography tools. Candidate should have direct experience in the design and test of mechatronic systems and control systems.

As job grade increases the role expands from executing well-defined engineering work to leading technical scope realizing complex modules driving roadmap direction and steering teams across multiple complex designs to ensure system-level integration and delivery.

This position may require access to controlled technology as defined in the Export Administration Regulations (15 C.F.R. 730 et seq.). As a condition of employment qualified candidates must be legally authorized to access such controlled technology prior to beginning work. Business demands may require the Company to proceed with candidates who are immediately eligible to access controlled technology.

Take the lead in developing complex parts of modules and deliver technically complex solutions with full ownership considering industrialization and cross-team impacts. Collaborate across multiple teams lead interfaces with suppliers and other disciplines in less defined environments and guide a small group of peers through technical execution.

Design:

• Design and develop custom mechatronics systems with a cross sector team including translating stages rotary motion multi-link positioners sensors servos actuators etc.
• Responsible for sustaining engineering tasks resolving equipment design issues in a timely fashion as they arise at customer sites.
• Participate in concept designs and experiments for future equipment and subsystems.
• Design quality products using six sigma and lean process techniques for robust designs.
• Work with external suppliers to define and develop certain aspects of new product design while collaborating with internal cross discipline teams.
• Perform Root Cause Analysis: Troubleshooting from System to Component Level
• Technical Writing: Define and Document Specifications Design Decisions and Operations to be used in a clean manufacturing environment.

Test & Integration:

• Develop and Implement the Product Validation and Verification (V&V) Strategy
• Troubleshoot designs to determine potential risks failure modes and corrective actions
• Run complex mechatronic systems for test and qualification of design changes
• Design Develop and Build Product Specific Test Tooling
• Test Validation and Verification (V&V) of Product Requirements
• Technical Writing: Define and Document Test Procedures and Test Reports

Responsibilities
