Graduate Field Service Engineer

Start your engineering career at the heart of cutting-edge technology

What if your first engineering role could take you from Ireland to some of the world’s most advanced semiconductor manufacturing facilities?

At ASM, we develop the technologies used to manufacture the computer chips powering modern life, from AI and smartphones to 5G, autonomous vehicles and medical technology.

For more than 50 years, innovation has been at the heart of what we do. Today, our engineers work at the forefront of semiconductor technologies including Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), epitaxy, PEALD, PECVD, vertical furnaces and silicon carbide epitaxy.

We are now looking for a Graduate Field Service Engineer to join our team in Ireland.

If you are an engineering graduate who enjoys hands-on problem solving, working with complex technology, travelling internationally and learning by doing, this could be the start of an exciting career with ASM.

What will you do?

As a Graduate Field Service Engineer, you will receive training and support to build your expertise on some of the most advanced semiconductor manufacturing equipment in the world.

You will:

• Install and commission advanced semiconductor equipment at customer sites.
• Support the qualification, preventative maintenance, troubleshooting and repair of ASM systems.
• Work hands-on with complex electrical, mechanical and electro-mechanical systems.
• Help install ASM's latest-generation equipment and new technologies at customer sites.
• Troubleshoot technical challenges, identify root causes and help develop long-term solutions.
• Work alongside experienced engineers and collaborate with international and cross-functional teams.
• Build strong relationships with customers and provide high-quality technical support.
• Develop your skills in technical reporting, project management, problem solving and customer communication.
• Work in highly advanced cleanroom environments where semiconductor devices are manufactured.

You'll be doing real engineering from the start, with the opportunity to see the impact of your work firsthand.

Where could this role take you?

This isn't a typical desk-based graduate role.

You'll be based in Ireland and spend significant time working directly at customer sites. As part of ASM's international Field Service organization, you will also have opportunities to travel to customer and ASM locations across Europe, North America, Asia or the Middle East.

Travel can represent up to 75% of the role, combining work at local customer sites with assignments at other locations.

For graduates who enjoy variety, meeting new people and gaining international experience early in their career, this is a unique opportunity to develop both technically and professionally.

What are we looking for?

You don't need years of industry experience. We're looking for graduates with the curiosity, practical mindset and motivation to learn.

You could be a great match if you have:

• A Bachelor's degree (Level 8 or higher) in Mechanical, Electrical, Electronic, Mechatronic Engineering or a related engineering discipline.
• An interest in hands-on engineering, equipment and technology.
• A practical approach to solving problems and learning new systems.
• Strong communication skills in English. Additional European languages are a plus.
• Basic working knowledge of Microsoft Office. Experience with SAP or similar systems is beneficial but not essential.
• A willingness and ability to travel extensively.
• A valid driver's license.
• A collaborative mindset and enthusiasm for working with people from different cultures and backgrounds.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who is curious, adaptable and excited to learn.

What will you get from ASM?

Your first role after university should help you build a career, not just give you a job.

At ASM, you'll have the opportunity to:

• Start your career with a global leader in semiconductor process technology.
• Receive advanced technical training at ASM's global training facilities.
• Learn directly from experienced engineers and technical specialists.
• Gain hands-on experience with highly advanced semiconductor manufacturing equipment.
• Build valuable expertise in troubleshooting, customer engineering, project management and semiconductor technology.
• Work in an international environment and gain exposure to customers and colleagues around the world.
• Access ongoing career development and learning opportunities within ASM.
• Receive a competitive graduate package, including base salary, bonus, pension and private healthcare.
• Join a supportive, collaborative and international engineering community.

Please note: Candidates must already have the right to work in Ireland to be considered for this position.
