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.
Join our Research and Development department, "Verification Engineering," composed of 20 highly dedicated engineers. Together, we push the boundaries of technological feasibility.

Your Role
1. You perform challenging engineering tasks in your area of deep expertise
2. You coordinate and review all engineering areas to ensure a comprehensive overview
3. As project scope grows, you take on the technical leadership of engineering project teams, consisting of analysis engineers, test engineers, as well as design and development engineers
4. You define and manage the design, development, and verification processes across the various phases of a complex project
5. You are responsible for specification and verification management, including the creation of a compliance matrix
6. You conduct conceptual designs and system analyses, making architectural trade-offs for mechatronic systems
7. You create and review technical documentation such as sub-specifications, design descriptions, and test plans
8. You track technical risks, support root cause analysis with your expertise, and implement the defined mitigation measures
Your Profile
9. Master's degree or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related fields
10. At least 5 years of experience in the technical development of actuators, including expert knowledge in actuator technology (Piezo, stepper motor, etc.), particularly in voice coil systems
11. Broad engineering knowledge in several of the following disciplines: machine dynamics, sensors, mechanical modeling, abstraction of physical systems, electrical engineering, mechanical and electrical testing, development for clean room environments
12. Experience with high-tech applications, e.g., in aerospace or vacuum technology, semiconductor equipment, scientific instruments, or in the field of MedTech
13. Willingness to be on-site 60 - 100% depending on the project phase
14. Fluent English skills (at least C1) and solid knowledge of the German language (at least B2)
