Responsibilities
The Research Scientist will analyze manufacturing processes to develop and improve data management solutions while coordinating software development activities. They will also ensure effective adoption of these solutions through stakeholder engagement, training, and hands-on user support.
Requirements
Candidates must hold an excellent university degree in a STEM discipline, with a PhD preferred and several years of research experience. Strong skills in structuring requirements, understanding complex interdependencies, and a solid foundation in software engineering principles are required.
Full job description
Enabling smaller, more powerful and more energy-efficient microchips.
Where tomorrow is created.
What is one component no smartphone can do without?
That's right – the microchip, the core of every electronically controlled system. Around 80% of all microchips worldwide are manufactured using ZEISS technologies. With highly precise lithography optics, photomask systems, and process control solutions, ZEISS enables the production of ever smaller, more powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips, playing a key role in shaping the era of micro- and nanoelectronics through continuous innovation.
Do you want to help drive the digital transformation with us?
Manufacturing our highly sophisticated products requires a wide range of interconnected processes and software solutions that make our complex dependencies manageable. These processes need to be designed, data flows modeled, and software development activities coordinated and supported.
This is exactly what we do – and we're looking for you to strengthen our team.
Your role
Analyze manufacturing processes in their overall context and develop, continuously improve, and take ownership of practical data management solutions for development projects and end users
Drive the strategic evolution of existing data management systems for product and specification data in close collaboration with stakeholders from R&D, manufacturing, and IT
Independently plan, coordinate, and oversee the implementation of software enhancements together with internal and external software development teams
Ensure the effective adoption of developed solutions by providing training, guidance, and hands-on user support
Present your concepts, project results, and recommendations to project teams and internal stakeholders
Your profile
You have an excellent university degree in a STEM discipline (Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics) and several years of experience in scientific research, ideally gained as part of a PhD program
You are experienced in structuring and formalizing requirements and have the ability to understand and resolve complex interdependencies. Ideally, you have also gained initial experience in analyzing and documenting technical processes
You have a strong affinity for data and software, are familiar with working with different data types and formats, understand the principles of sustainable and maintainable software, and are familiar with the fundamental concepts of modern software engineering
You are motivated to gain a deep understanding of real-world manufacturing processes, their challenges, and their constraints, and are passionate about developing practical, sustainable solutions
You demonstrate a high degree of initiative, independence, structured thinking, and a pragmatic, solution-oriented approach to your work
You are business fluent in both German and English, with excellent written and verbal communication skills
