Introduction to the job
This position is in diagnostics platform group (EPS) at the ASML Software department. This department focusses on improving system availability at customer’s production processes by process optimization for ASML Engineers in factory and field. The software is developed to increase the service capabilities of the engineering department. The software is deployed on a server rack inside the customer’s data center. It takes data from ASML devices as input for diagnostics on system performance and availability. This data is processed via feedback loops towards the engineers and headquarter to continuously monitor, improve and optimize the efficiency of our work processes.

You will ensure the stability of the existing platforms in the field and the introduction of the new platform with all its new opportunities and issues. You are profound in troubleshooting hardware, virtualization, network and software issues even if these go beyond the platform. You understand the impact containerization may or may not have in these cases. Robust definition of software and platform, install and upgrade (Ansible, Shell script) is one of your hobbies. In the end you take pride in robust and stable platforms, as you are a true Engineer.
Responsibilities:
- Creating Ansible playbooks (maintaining + optimizing) that are used in software deployment;
