Test and Measurement Facilities Project Lead

Introduction to the job

ASML US, including its affiliates and subsidiaries, bring 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. Our headquarters are in Veldhoven, Netherlands, and we have 18 office locations around the United States including main offices in Chandler, Arizona, San Jose and San Diego, California, Wilton, Connecticut, and Hillsboro, Oregon.

The Test and Measurement Facilities (TMF) group aims to mitigate risks by testing hardware early in the design process. The strategy of TMF is to isolate failure mechanism and simulate environments on generic test equipment to quantify the risk. The TMF team is comprised of multi-discipline test engineers and architects who work in TMF owned and operated labs, with full control over the equipment and the work done in the labs.
