Advanced Laser Seperation International, ALSI, is the next Philips spin-off that is changing the rules of the semiconductor equipment market by strategically applying innovative technologies to bolster its growing position in the wafer dicing market. Latest developments in the field of mechatronics, extreme short pulse lasers, and opto-electronics are core areas of ALSI’s innovation: submicron magnetically driven wafer-stages, automatic wafer-handling, machine control, Diffractive Optics, Multiple Beam Laser Cutting, etc.

ALSI’s technologies have lead to breakthrough in the LED and RF-IC industry; wafers of High Brightness LED’s and GaAs RF-IC’s for mobile communication are increasingly diced by ALSI’s Multiple Laser Beam Process.
The next step in ALSI’s market strategy is the dicing of Silicon IC wafers for memories, mobile communication, and micro processors. In these segments the growing need for laser-dicing is driven by the use of low-k material and the trend to extreme thin wafers for stacked die IC’s and RF-ID’s.
ALSI technology challenges for these new segments are the development of a twelve inch wafer-stage, automatic handling of twelve inch wafers, adaptive machine control platform, and laser processes down to the pico-second range.

To keep up with the success and follow our growth we need to strengthen and expand our capabilities in various disciplines and are looking for:

A Software engineer

The Software Engineer maintains and develops software of our laser seperation system. The Software Engineer works in a small software team and works together with the other disciplines, (mechanics, electronics, optics and laser) to solve problems and to create new functionality. Besides maintaining software the Software Engineer specifies, develops, integrates and tests software and supports our suppliers.The software engineer also supports and plays an active role to define and guard the software architecture to create a robust platform for current and future control and software functionalities.

• The creation, maintenance and review of the overall software architecture, the software specifications and the software designs;
• Provide strategic direction and leadership of the software development for the ALSI Laser Separation Systems.
• Design, implementation (coding) and testing of the software;
• Set-up the content of Software Testing;
• Capturing and developing of software development knowledge in the Knowledge Management System of ALSI;
• Contribute to innovation regarding new ideas and functionality.
• Maintain software, is able to analyze (also at customer sites) and solve complex problems
• Support other disciplines (hardware, optics, mechanics, laser) in product developments
• Support software suppliers with setup, integration and testing of new functionality
• To create software versions and releases in our configuration management system

• Relevant experience in Industrial machine control (distributed I/O, CAN, RS232, Ethernet)
• Profound knowledge of object oriented design, software design methods (UML)
• Experience with the full software life cycle – requirements capturing, design, implementation, test & integration, sustaining
