Our client is one of the world's leading manufacturers of lithography equipment and a majority of the world's microchips receive their critical lithographic patterning in their machines.
In addition they also produce metrology tools and advanced applications to analyze and optimize the performance of the production process. In their applications department they develop analytics & control solutions that improve the accuracy of performance metrics (such as overlay, focus, critical dimension) as measured on the end product of a fab process (wafers with chip structures).
The collaboration with our client has reached the 10 years threshold and we have more than 300 talented colleagues working alongside the client.
Business trips to the client site in the Netherlands might happen 1-2 weeks/quarter (every 3 months)
