Production Architect focusing on System and Product Architecture for Actuators (m/f/x)

Enabler for smaller, more powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips

Work where tomorrow is created.

Around 80 percent of all microchips worldwide are manufactured using ZEISS technologies. As the heart of every electronically controlled system, they have become indispensable to our daily 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 increasingly smaller, more powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips – and thus decisively shapes the era of micro- and nanoelectronics with its innovations.

Daring to do something new, growing beyond oneself, and redefining the limits of what is possible. This is exactly what our employees are allowed and encouraged to live every day. In order to set the pace with our innovations and enable greatness. Because behind every successful company stands a whole lot of fascinating people.

ZEISS employees work in an open and modern environment with numerous development and further training opportunities. Our culture is characterized by expert knowledge and team spirit. All of this is supported by the special ownership structure and the long-term goal of the Carl Zeiss Foundation: to advance science and society together.

Dare today. Inspire tomorrow.
