About the Job

Requirements

  • A bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field.
  • At least 5 years of relevant work experience.
  • Strong object-oriented programming skills in C# and/or C++, with experience delivering production software.
  • Experience with Windows-based software development such as .NET, MFC, WPF, or WinForms.
  • Experience with multithreading, multi-process architectures, inter-process communication, or mathematics-based algorithm development.
  • Written and verbal English communication skills.
  • No restrictions on overseas business travel.

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, test, and maintain semiconductor equipment control software using C# and C++.
  • Develop software for PEALD/PECVD/EPI products, process modules, cluster tool scheduling, and wafer-handling platforms.
  • Develop scheduler logic, wafer-flow management functions, unit-level operations, and interfaces integrated with higher-level control systems.
  • Develop WPF- or WinForms-based user interfaces for equipment monitoring and control.
  • Develop and integrate equipment drivers and communication interfaces using DeviceNet, EtherCAT, TCP/IP, Serial, RS-232, and RS-485.
  • Validate software using simulators, demo equipment, and production-representative systems; support software updates, upgrades, and functional verification.
  • Analyze software defects, scheduling conflicts, runtime issues, and customer or manufacturing-site problems through troubleshooting and root-cause analysis.
  • Create and maintain software requirements, design information, test evidence, and technical documentation.
  • Collaborate with hardware, process engineering, quality assurance, customer support, and global engineering teams.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience developing semiconductor or display equipment software in fab or production-equipment environments.
  • Experience with equipment control, wafer scheduling, wafer-flow management, EFEM/WHC, wafer-handling robots, motors, pressure, temperature, or motion-control systems.
  • Experience developing interfaces using EtherCAT, DeviceNet, TCP/IP, RS-232, or RS-485.
  • Familiarity with TwinCAT, PLC Structured Text, real-time controllers, or automatic control theory.
  • Knowledge of SEMI standards such as GEM300, E40, or E94.
  • Experience with Visual Studio, Git/GitLab, Jira, and Confluence.

About the Company

ASM International

Semiconductor deposition equipment and ALD tech

ASM International designs and supplies equipment and technologies for semiconductor fabrication, focusing on thin-film deposition processes such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and atomic layer deposition (ALD). Its products are used in making microchips by depositing ultra-thin material layers with precise control at the atomic level, enabling smaller and more powerful devices. The company built a global footprint through operations in the Netherlands, the US, Hong Kong, and Japan, and separated ASML Lithography (a joint venture with Philips) to focus on deposition while ASML develops photolithography systems. In recent years, ASM has sharpened its strategy around ALD, a process that creates uniformly thin layers one atomic layer at a time, allowing continued scaling of semiconductor devices. The goal is to be a core supplier of deposition technology and tools that enable chip manufacturers to produce smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient semiconductors.
