Experimental Specialist

Main responsibilities 

Our partner houses state-of-the-art facilities where we conduct experiments on gas flow, nanoparticle detection, plasma analysis, and more. One of our key goals is to support the development of EUV lithography for high-volume manufacturing and extend our expertise across other high-tech domains.  

You will also be responsible for maintaining and enhancing lab setups. With your engineering skills, you’ll either build new experimental setups or improve existing ones. You may become the Setup Owner for specific equipment, taking responsibility for maintenance, safety, and overall quality.

This is a unique opportunity to advance your career in a dynamic environment at the forefront of technology and innovation.

• Design, execute, and analyze experiments to support project teams.
• Collaborate with scientists to ensure experimental plans are feasible and address unforeseen challenges.
• Build, upgrade, and maintain lab setups with a focus on high-quality data collection.
• Take ownership of specific setups, ensuring safety, maintenance, and quality standards are met.
• Contribute to the development of new equipment and metrology solutions.
• Work in a hands-on, experimental setting, with plenty of opportunities to further shape your career.

Requirements 

• A Bachelor's degree (HBO) or equivalent in a technical field with experience in experimental research in an R&D or academic setting.
• Knowledge in areas such as high vacuum, cleanliness/contamination, nanotechnology, optics, plasma, thermal and gas flow, or material characterization.
• Strong teamwork and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with colleagues.
• Organized, precise, and quality-driven with the ability to work independently.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, changing environment.
• Fluent English is required; knowledge of Dutch is a plus.
• A hands-on mindset, enjoying practical/technical work (this is not a desk job!).
• Additional skills such as Python scripting or electrical engineering would be a bonus.
