ZEISS Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology

Enabler for smaller, more powerful and more energy-efficient microchips - work where the morning is created.

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.

In the Optics and System Design Lighting team, we deal with the physical issues behind the high-precision optics of our systems for semiconductor lithography and their environment. Our task is to develop new products and to ensure the optical performance of the systems through analytical and numerical modeling and simulation.

You work in one of the development teams for our latest product generations

here you optimize (continuous, discrete or combinatorial) system parameters for the best possible design solution

They develop software-based performance reviews and thus ensure the quality of our products

you agree with requirements and interfaces with other project teams

They are responsible for the design and organization of work packages within the framework of the respective work package.

With a wide range of training and further training catalogues, we promote your development in specialist, project or personnel runway. Depending on your experience and objectives, we select tasks from a wide range to promote your development in a targeted manner. Knowledge gaps in individual fields, such as e.g. Optics or lithography, we conclude with a long-tested and continuously improved onboarding concept (paternity, incorporation plan, seminars, events etc.). In addition, a network of experienced colleagues is available to you, especially at the beginning.

You have a successfully completed scientific master's or graduate studies (preferably physics, Computational Physics/Math, Simulation Technology, etc.) ideally with first professional experience in the academic and/or industrial environment (low doctorate or postdoc)

They show a pronounced scientific curiosity and are ready to work deep into the physics of lithography systems, especially in the context of lighting

You feel comfortable in an interdisciplinary, team-oriented environment and have shown in various projects that you like to work self-motivated by scientific methods

You can communicate excellently and bring the most important aspects of your work to people with other technical backgrounds

good knowledge of programming, preferably in Matlab and Python. Experience and interest in sustainable software development

Your very good knowledge of German and English complete your profile

Please provide proof of the information in your CV in the systems of your application (e.g. certificates including grades, certificates of work and qualifications).
