About the role
About us
AIM Solutions is an early-stage deep-tech startup in Eindhoven building inspection and metrology equipment for the semiconductor industry. We are in active build phase, small, and growing.
The role
You own everything that moves in our tool. You are responsible for the wafer stage, the wafer handling and the focusing system, and for any other active component in the machine. You work between mechanics, electronics and software, and you become our in-house expert on precision motion.
You will:
Integrate and tune the wafer stage and its control together with embedded engineers and electrical engineers
Develop the wafer handling, from loading to alignment, together with the mechanical engineer
Develop the focusing system and keep the wafer in the right place throughout a measurement
Own the other active components in the system: actuators, sensors and their control
Synchronize motion with the rest of the tool, together with the embedded and software engineers
Characterize performance in the lab, such as accuracy, settling and drift, and turn the data into design decisions
Your profile
3+ years of hands-on experience in mechatronics or precision motion in high-tech equipment (5+ years preferred)
Practical experience with precision stages, actuators and position sensors
Good knowledge of control engineering: feedback and feedforward control, system identification, loop shaping
Experience with commercial motion controllers and scripting them
You enjoy debugging across mechanics, electronics and software, and you turn vague problems into repeatable tests
Full professional proficiency in English
Bonus:
Wafer stages, wafer handling or focus and level sensing in semiconductor equipment
Error budgeting and dynamics for nanometer-level systems
Experience with FPGA-based control systems
Hardware triggering and real-time systems
Wafer handling robots, EFEMs or SEMI standards
We care more about rigor and learning speed than about a perfect match. If you have fewer years but have built and tuned a precision motion system, apply anyway.
What we offer
Ownership of all moving parts of a tool that does not exist anywhere else yet
Small team, short feedback loops, real impact on the product
Competitive salary for the Dutch market
