Job description

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
