About this role
ZEISS Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology Enabler for smaller, more powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips Working for tomorrow today. Around 80 percent of all microchips worldwide are produced using ZEISS technologies. As the centerpiece of every electronically controlled system, they have become an integral part of our everyday lives – whether in smartphones, smart homes or smart factories. ZEISS is a technology leader in the field of semiconductor manufacturing equipment. With high-precision lithography optics, photomask systems and process control solutions, ZEISS enables the production of ever smaller, increasingly powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips, and thus plays a pivotal role in the age of micro- and nanoelectronics Your Role To manufacture high-performance semiconductor chips using microlithography, we develop the world's most advanced projection and illumination systems. Solutions based on controlled mechatronic concepts play an important role in this work. * In your role as a Mechatronics Development Engineer focusing on dynamics and control engineering, you will serve as a key contact for developing, evaluating and documenting mechatronic system concepts for the projection and illumination optics of microlithography systems, with a focus on dynamics and control engineering * You will model, simulate and analyze highly complex mechatronic systems and independently develop and evaluate control algorithms for the rapid and extremely precise positioning of precision mechanical components. Based on your results, you will derive specifications and budgets for components. You will ensure the implementation and testing of prototypes and evaluate the results * You will be part of an interdisciplinary team and work closely with customers (internal/external) and development partners throughout the development process Your Profile * Several years of professional experience and/or a doctorate following an excellent university degree in mechanical engineering (specializing in control engineering), mechatronics, electrical engineering, engineering cybernetics or a comparable discipline * In-depth knowledge of control design (frequency- and time-domain methods, advanced control loops) and the dynamic analysis of mechanical systems (multibody simulation, FEM, structural dynamics, modeling methods), experience in validating dynamic models, and very good MATLAB skills * Ideally, knowledge of related disciplines such as actuators/sensors, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, technical optics and systems engineering * An independent and systematic way of working, very good organizational and communication skills, and strong sense of ownership * Enthusiasm for working as part of an interdisciplinary team in a highly dynamic environment, together with a high level of commitment and motivation * Very good written and spoken German and English Your ZEISS Recruiting Team: Ramazan Azgin Step out of your comfort zone, excel and redefine the limits of what is possible.
