Mechanical Engineering | Systems Engineering internship: strategic utility master plan
Cymer, LLC. (US01) · Veldhoven
Introduction
You will join the Process Technology team in Veldhoven, where engineering, data, and long-term infrastructure planning come together. As ASML continues to grow, utility infrastructure must be planned years ahead to support future manufacturing demand. This internship focuses on transforming an existing framework into a practical and scalable planning and decision-support system. Together with another intern, you will help shape the next stage of ASML’s Five-Year Utility Master Plan. This internship offers the opportunity to create lasting impact on future infrastructure, capacity, and investment decisions.
Your assignment
During this Mechanical Engineering | Systems Engineering internship: strategic utility master plan, you will work as part of a two-person project team to develop a working prototype of ASML’s Five-Year Utility Master Plan.
