Contenuto del lavoro

Introduction
ASML brings 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, such as GLOBALFOUNDRIES, Bosch, Infineon Technologies and Intel – to reduce the size and increase the functionality of their microchips, which in turn leads to smaller, more powerful consumer electronics.

You will be working at our Customer Support (CS) department, but at ASML it is not what the term typically brings to mind. At ASML thousands of our engineers are dedicated to the simple goal of making sure that our lithography systems at our customers’ sites are running smoothly, 24/7. The real ‘magic’ namely begins after a system is shipped to a customer.

Job Mission

As a Customer Support Engineer (CSE) – based in Dresden, Germany you will be an ambassador for ASML at our customers’ sites and you are the first line of support for the repair and maintenance of our DUV lithography and our YieldStar systems around the clock.

In the rare case that a machine goes ‘down’, our CSE’s spring into action and work together to get it back up and running as fast as possible.
Working in customer support is challenging due to the changing dynamics and pressure to repair machines as quickly as possible. But the work is also very rewarding since you work directly with the customer and the impact of your solutions delivered is directly visible and the end result is always a happy customer.
