Embedded Software Engineer

Embedded Software Engineer - Recent College Grad-0002302

Description

Join Cymer and you will be involved in designing, improving and maintaining the software for a product that defines the limits of invention. The control loops involve data exchange at speeds up to 100 kHz while data collection for diagnostics purposes is done at up to 1Khz rate. You will be on the team that is defining the interaction between control loops running on quad core boards and platform software that runs on IBM bladecenter. Data is stored on board in postgres databases and is shipped via the fab network to Cymer's data servers in San Diego. And our graphical user interface developed using Qt serves a complex set of users - operators, engineers, scientists and customers. And we don't forget safety, the control system has a Siemens PLC to ensure both human safety is ensured and machine damage is prevented.
