Development Engineer Actuation with a Focus on Piezo Technology (f/m/x) in Oberkochen

ZEISS Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology 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

Your Role

• Technical responsibility for high-precision actuation systems throughout the entire product lifecycle, from development to series products.
• Further development of actuation systems with a focus on design verification, manufacturability, integrability, and risk management.
