Work where the morning arises.

About 80 percent of all microchips worldwide are manufactured using ZEISS technologies. As the heart of any electronically controlled system, they are no longer to think away from our everyday life – whether in smartphones, smart homes or smart factories. ZEISS is a technology leader in semiconductor manufacturing equipment. With high-precision lithography optics, photomask systems and solutions for process control, ZEISS enables the production of increasingly smaller, more powerful and more energy-efficient microchips – and thus decisively shapes the age of microelectronics and nanoelectronics with its innovations.

Are you looking for a new challenge in a highly expanding, technologically groundbreaking environment? Do you want to implement innovations in electron microscopy for the Zeiss MeRiT product range with world-leading partners in the semiconductor market? Then you are right with us! At the Carl ZEISS MultiSEM you are connected to the Carl ZEISS SMT, the world's leading provider of optical lithography for semiconductor chip production. We offer you the opportunity to develop advanced technology in an interdisciplinary, multicultural team.

In the Electron Optical Design group, we form the future of electron-optical solutions for the semiconductor market with electron-optical designs and physical-electronic modeling. Our task is to ensure the outstanding optical performance of our systems – from idea-finding to technology development to series maturity and further development. We stand for high expertise, high self-responsibility, an incredibly motivating environment and a culture of common growth.

For multi-beam electron microscopy systems used in the semiconductor industry, they will make an essential contribution to their success, develop, investigate and optimize electron-optical designs. In particular, you will: Select, develop, optimize and apply electron-optical calculation and simulation methods
