You will contribute to establishing Applications Engineering capability for a development line in Texas and a future high-volume manufacturing (HVM) site.As a Senior Applications Engineer, you will be among the initial cohort of engineers responsible for enabling site success. You will build strong customer relationships and drive technical execution from early wafer introduction through pilot-line execution and ramp to volume.You will be assigned to a primary platform (e.g., YieldStar, EUV, DUV) or project area (e.g., NPI Startup, New Technology Projects), with responsibility for on-product performance within your scope. You will collaborate closely with Applications, Equipment, and customer engineering teams to ensure successful node transfer and ramp execution.This position is initially based in Austin, TX, and will transition toward the future HVM location as the customer footprint expands. During the initial phase, you may travel to other ASML and customer sites to build platform expertise, support process transfer, and learn system configurations.You will report to the local Applications Manager and work within a broader network of Applications Engineers across regions, leveraging global best known methods (BKMs) and expertise.Role and responsibilitiesThis role requires strong ownership of technical deliverables, disciplined execution, and the ability to operate independently while collaborating across ASML and customer organizations. As a Senior Applications Engineer, you will lead technical problem solving and project execution within your scope and contribute to broader team outcomes.You will:Lead technical execution for your assigned platform or project area (e.g., YieldStar applications performance, control loops, or metrology optimization)Own workstreams within larger cross-functional programs, including NPI, pilot-line execution, and ramp-to-volume readinessServe as a key technical interface between ASML and the customer for on-product performance topicsTranslate customer challenges into structured problem statements and actionable solutionsDrive alignment with local teams, global stakeholders, and ASML headquarters to ensure effective issue resolutionExecution Phases:{{b}}Initial phase:{{/b}} Build platform expertise, support process transfer, and develop understanding of customer configurations and operating models{{b}}Pilot-line phase:{{/b}} Support tool qualification, wafer introduction, and performance stabilization{{b}}Ramp-to-volume:{{/b}} Drive yield improvement, process optimization, and sustaining performanceResponsibilities include, but are not limited to:Lead or drive technical projects supporting new node introduction or ramp of existing technologiesOwn and execute project plans, track progress, and communicate updates to internal and customer stakeholdersDefine and conduct experiments in collaboration with customers to validate performance and demonstrate product valueAnalyze large datasets from scanner and metrology tools to identify performance drivers and improvement opportunitiesTranslate on-product issues into lithography or metrology-related problem statements and drive resolutionOptimize YieldStar and scanner performance through data-driven insights and control strategiesPartner with product, system engineering, and project teams to influence product improvements and tool configurationsPrepare and deliver technical presentations, including to customer technical leadershipContribute to identifying new applications opportunities aligned with customer needsProvide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers within the teamEducation and experienceBachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Chemistry, Mechanical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or related fieldMinimum 8 years of experience in IC manufacturing, lithography, metrology, or process technologyExperience supporting NPI, ramp, or high-volume manufacturing environmentsStrong experience in data analysis and coding (e.g., Python, MATLAB, R, JMP)Demonstrated ability to work independently and lead technical workstreamsExperience collaborating across cross-functional and global teamsStrong communication and stakeholder engagement skillsSkillsStrong analytical and problem-solving capabilities applied to complex semiconductor processesAbility to interpret large datasets and derive actionable insightsStructured approach to experimentation and hypothesis-driven problem solvingHands-on experience with programming and data analysis toolsAbility to lead technical workstreams and influence without formal authorityEffective communication with technical and non-technical stakeholdersStrong collaboration within matrixed and global environmentsProactive ownership and accountability for deliverablesHigh level of initiative and self-directionAdaptability in fast-paced and evolving environmentsContinuous learning mindset and drive for technical growthAttention to quality, detail, and execution disciplineOther informationRole is based primarily onsite at ASML and customer locationsSome work will be conducted in a cleanroom environmentUp to ~30% travel required, with potential for higher travel during initial onboarding and startup phasesTraining may include international locations (e.g., Taiwan, the Netherlands)Ability to work under time-sensitive conditions and support critical milestone.This position requires access to controlled technology, as defined in the United States Export Administration Regulations (15 C.F.R.730, et seq.).
