About The Position

ASML is seeking an Automation Engineer for Electrical Test systems in the Production Engineering Test department at its Wilton Factory. The role supports development, implementation, and release of multidisciplinary test equipment, as well as documented networking procedures and practices that improve the safety and reliability of network-connected production test stands. Daily work includes supporting electro-mechanical test equipment and module output in a manufacturing environment. The engineer leads electrical test and automation projects from requirements through validation and production deployment. The role develops, integrates, and maintains hardware, software, instrumentation, data-acquisition, database, analysis, and reporting solutions; troubleshoots issues across electrical, mechanical, software, computer, and network systems; and provides root-cause analysis and diagnostic guidance. It also involves installing and upgrading test software, backups, operating systems, programming environments, and network-connected factory equipment, while translating production needs into requirements, acceptance criteria, validation plans, procedures, and technical documentation. Approximately 50% of work time is spent in the cleanroom supporting production test engineering and resolving computer and network issues. The work takes place in a fully gowned ISO 9000/14000 cleanroom around production equipment and may involve overhead cranes, powered material movers, ladders, platforms, chemicals, lasers, strong magnetic fields, and high-voltage/high-current electrical systems. Travel may be required depending on company needs.

Requirements

Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
Strong software development background.
Electrical engineering design experience and supportive use of test equipment.
Networking experience with Windows, Unix, and proprietary operating systems.
Organized, disciplined, and assertive approach in a development and manufacturing environment.
Ability to interface with multidisciplinary groups, including senior leadership, take responsibility, and follow through.
Strong ownership and commitment to achieving results on time.
Ability to work in a team environment and communicate effectively in writing and orally with teams and senior management.
Focus on quality and continuous improvement.
Ability to work under deadlines and read and interpret data, information, and documents.
Ability to work in a fully gowned cleanroom environment and around production equipment and the listed workplace hazards.
For candidates with no full-time experience after completing their degree, preference is given to at least one year of combined internships, co-op assignments, undergraduate research, or equivalent relevant hands-on engineering experience.

Nice To Haves

Experience with LabVIEW, C#, C/C++, Python, Microsoft Visual Studio, or MATLAB.
Experience in manufacturing, industrial automation, electrical test, instrumentation, software development, data acquisition, and production support.
Exposure to OPC UA or similar industrial interfaces, statistical process control (SPC), manufacturing support systems, and production deployment of engineering tools.

Responsibilities

Lead electrical test and automation projects from requirements through validation and production deployment.
Develop, integrate, and maintain hardware, software, instrumentation, data-acquisition, database, analysis, and reporting solutions.
Troubleshoot electrical, mechanical, software, computer, and network issues; perform root-cause analysis and create diagnostic guidance.
Install and upgrade test software, backups, operating systems, programming environments, and network-connected factory equipment.
Translate production needs into requirements, scope, dependencies, acceptance criteria, validation plans, procedures, and technical documentation.
Apply disciplined software lifecycle practices and support secure, reliable factory output through cross-functional collaboration and knowledge transfer.
Spend approximately 50% of work time in the cleanroom supporting production test engineering and resolving computer and network issues.
Support development, implementation, and release of multidisciplinary test equipment and improve the safety and reliability of network-connected production test stands.
