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.
Do you want to drive the digital transformation forward with us?
Join us as a Software Architect Algorithms in Semiconductor Technology (f/m/x) in our Semiconductor Mask Solutions (SMS) business unit in Jena, Roßdorf or Oberkochen and shape the digital future of ZEISS in the Global Algorithms & Software Semiconductor Mask Solutions team!
Our sophisticated algorithms evaluate enormous amounts of image data in a highly efficient manner. Only in this way we enable the performance of our complex photomask systems - the essential building block to manufacture defect-free microchips.
Your Role

Our high-tech measurement systems for semiconductor lithography are characterized by extreme demands on measurement precision. Design and performance of these devices require highly accurate numerical models of the physical device – a digital twin.

• your role is to design and improve the architecture of the virtual measurement process and the associated data processing pipeline
• your modular & scalable design will bridge the gap between mathematical-optical models, numerical algorithms and the high-performance compute infrastructure
• you will join an agile team of algorithm developers, system engineers and simulation experts
• as a software architect you will closely align with other architects to ensure a scalable, modular and maintainable architecture for a high-end microscope
• your innovation-driven mindset makes you follow the latest technical developments, and your efficient communication will continuously expand your network within and beyond our company

Your profile

• a very successfully completed university degree in computer science, engineering, applied mathematics or similar (PhD preferred)
• very good knowledge in optical/physical simulations, image processing, and numerics
• 5-10 years of experience in scientific computing and software engineering
• 3 years+ professional experience as a software architect
• 5 years+ practical programming experience with Python, Matlab or C++ and preferably also with parallel computing
• excellent communication skills and lateral leadership experience
• very good English and German skills
