Field Applications Engineer - Yieldstar
About The Position
The Field Applications Engineer is part of the Yieldstar Applications Engineering team supporting Samsung. The role analyzes large-scale metrology data to characterize EUV and DUV scanner and on-product performance, uses Yieldstar measurement data to detect issues, and explains potential effects on product performance. The engineer proposes application product improvements involving tool setup and usage, process-control strategies, metrology mark selection and design, and optimization. The work is performed closely with the customer and is often tied to introducing a new technology node into high-volume manufacturing. The position can provide opportunities to develop technical expertise or pursue project or management leadership roles. The engineer supports customer transitions to new technology nodes and technology ramps, helps define customer requirements, and translates on-product issues into lithography- or metrology-related problem statements. The role also includes data analysis, technical reporting and presentations, coordination with internal and external stakeholders, and learning and applying ASML’s photolithography product portfolio. Up to 10% travel is required for training and cross-site support.
