Enabler for smaller, more powerful, and more energy-efficient microchipsWorking for tomorrow today.
Your Role
You design optics for new products or generations, optimize their functionality, and ensure the optical performance of our systems-analytically, numerically, and in close collaboration with colleagues from mechanics, electronics, and other optics-design teams.
As a team member, you translate complex, interdisciplinary requirements-thermal influences, packaging constraints, and manufacturing limits-into robust optics and system designs.
You bring initiative, challenge existing approaches, and actively contribute to continually rethinking solutions.
Your Profile
- Completed science-based Master's degree or PhD (preferably Physics, Optics, Photonics, or related fields)
- Professional experience in academia or industry (e.g., as a Postdoc) is a plus but not required
- Basic knowledge of scientific programming (e.g., Matlab, Python)
- Experience in designing optical systems, both imaging and non-imaging optics, with ray-tracing methods and automated optimizers - the specific tool is secondary (e.g., Zemax/OpticStudio, CodeV, etc.)
- Strong natural science curiosity and willingness to independently dive deep into the physics of lithography systems and their modeling
- Experience with AI methods (e.g., for optimization or data analysis) is welcome but not required
- Communication strength: you can explain complex technical concepts to colleagues from other disciplines
- Enjoyment of self-motivated, structured work and learning in an interdisciplinary team
