Enabler for smaller, more powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips
Working for tomorrow today.
Around 80 percent of all microchips worldwide are produced using ZEISS technologies. As the centerpiece of every electronically controlled system, they have become an integral part of our everyday lives – whether in smartphones, smart homes or smart factories. ZEISS is a technology leader in the field of semiconductor manufacturing equipment. With high-precision lithography optics, photomask systems and process control solutions, ZEISS enables the production of ever smaller, increasingly powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips, and thus plays a pivotal role in the age of micro- and nanoelectronics.
But what would lithography optics be without the electronics and software that control them? Achieving the required imaging precision would be impossible. The control electronics of a lithography optic, in combination with the associated sensors and actuators, ensure that the optical elements are aligned with extreme precision in a closed control loop up to tens of thousands of times per second – enabling the necessary precision in the exposure process.
Our work in the Product Electronics and Product Software departments focuses on all areas of electronics development: analog and digital hardware development, real-time and non-real-time software development, FPGA design and verification, as well as electrical design. We cover all steps from requirements management, design, prototype development, and testing to industrialization.
If you are ready for exciting and challenging tasks that allow you to shape the future of tomorrow, join us at our Oberkochen site and take on the following responsibilities. This position is also available on a part-time basis.
