Development Engineer Mechatronics and Qualification

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.

We are seeking a dedicated and highly qualified Mechatronics Development Engineer (m/f/x) who solves technical problems in a structured manner within a team. You bring top-tier knowledge in mechatronics and control engineering and want to apply it to the development of qualification processes. A daily focus will be algorithm development in Matlab. You see yourself as a proactive communicator who can identify and bring together key stakeholders in technical projects.

Your Role:

• Process development for integration, commissioning, and qualification of mechatronic modules and systems
• Requirements management: define qualification-process and test-bench requirements concerning dynamics and process stability in collaboration with key stakeholders
• Work-package ownership: guide the development of test benches and processes, their commissioning, and handover to production; technical planning, detailing, and responsibility for work packages in system integration with a focus on mechatronic qualification
• Measurements and analyses: perform and evaluate measurements to determine mechanical, electrical, and dynamic properties of components, assemblies, and machines
• Software development: develop analysis algorithms and measurement software in Matlab

Your Profile:

• Successfully completed university studies in mechatronics, control engineering, computational engineering, electrical engineering or a related field; PhD is a plus
• Excellent knowledge in control engineering and mechatronics, particularly in system identification, system qualification, system tuning, and uncertainty analyses
• Very good programming skills, ideally in Matlab; first experience contributing to larger code repositories is desirable
• Practical experience commissioning, troubleshooting, and fault classification in mechatronic systems, plus knowledge of experiments and simulations
• Structured problem-solving approach and goal-oriented communication
• Strong teamwork, confident and friendly presence, and high proactivity
• Very good English and good German language skills, both written and spoken
