Introduction

ASML US, including its affiliates and subsidiaries, bring 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 - to reduce the size and increase the functionality of their microchips, which in turn leads to smaller, more powerful consumer electronics. Our headquarters are in Veldhoven, Netherlands, and we have 18 office locations around the United States including main offices in Chandler, Arizona, San Jose and San Diego, California, Wilton, Connecticut, and Hillsboro, Oregon.

Job Mission

ASML is seeking a highly skilled Senior Data Scientist to join our Analysis Group. This role is crucial for driving innovation by applying machine learning and data-driven modeling approaches to complex, physics-based data, particularly in the context of transient data. The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in physics-based modeling, such as Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) and Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs), and experience in developing Reduced Order Modeling (ROM) and  machine learning techniques.

This position requires access to controlled technology, as defined in the Export Administration Regulations (15 C.F.R. § 730, et seq.). Qualified candidates must be legally authorized to access such controlled technology prior to beginning work. Business demands may require ASML to proceed with applicants who are immediately eligible to access controlled technology.”
