Internship - Mechatronics Engineer - Summer 2026

ASML N.V.•Wilton, CT

63d

About The Position

ASML US, including its affiliates and subsidiaries, bring together the most creative minds in science and technology to develop lithography machines that are key to producing faster, cheaper, more energy-efficient microchips. We design, develop, integrate, market and service these advanced machines, which enable our customers - the world's leading chipmakers - to reduce the size and increase the functionality of their microchips, which in turn leads to smaller, more powerful consumer electronics. Our headquarters are in Veldhoven, Netherlands and we have 18 office locations around the United States including main offices in Chandler, Arizona, San Jose and San Diego, California, Wilton, Connecticut, and Hillsboro, Oregon. The DUV Reticle Stage Mechatronics Group in Wilton CT is seeking a well-rounded intern to work on mechatronics, sub-nanometer linear motion control, product and system integration and/or software functionality, all specific to ASML products. The main focus will be mechatronics and control systems on advanced modules in lithography tools. The job requires a strong technical individual contributor to: Technically own and drive the decisions necessary to complete the tasks. Work with designers from supporting engineering disciplines in order to converge on an overall design solution. Autonomously gather necessary information to conceive and propose options in order to meet the sub-module and sub-system level requirements. Interface with module architects to derive requirements for the sub-module. Write performance specification documents at sub-module level and feed sub-budgets down to the lower levels. Create sub-module level test protocol docs and subsequent test result analysis to prove sub-module and sub-system level performance specs are met. Understand and be able to communicate the implication of sub-module level errors on higher module level performance and on other sub-module. Work on solving an actual issue or design challenge the group is facing at the time. Specific tasks will also be tailored to match the education / experience level of the intern as well as the student's learning objectives for the duration. Perform some autonomous work (modeling, data collection, data analysis, test execution in the lab or clean room) as well as some supervised and/or collaborative work. Clearly communicate technical performance in both written and verbal presentations to stakeholders.

Requirements

Pursuing Bachelor's degree in a Science or Engineering discipline (such as Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, or Physics), with at least 2 years completed.
Pursuing Master's degree preferred
Strong MATLAB, Simulink skills are required
Direct experience in the design and test of mechatronic systems and control systems.
Candidate must have strong communicative skills with a commitment to achieving results on time.
Candidate shall be a demonstrated "team player" with a quality orientation and interpersonal skills.
Experience with PID controllers, linear and nonlinear calibrations, flexible dynamics.
Ability to interface with multidisciplinary groups and work effectively in a team. Willingness to take on responsibility, follow through and keep multiple simultaneous assignments on schedule.
Ability to quickly acquire technical knowledge from documentation and on-the-job training. Capability to thoroughly investigate technical issues (analytically and hands-on in a lab environment).
