Step into a career with ASM, where cutting edge technology meets collaborative culture.

For over 55 years ASM has been ahead of what’s next, at the forefront of innovation and what’s technologically possible. With more than 4,500 ASMers representing 70 nationalities, our people and our advanced semiconductor devices are playing a crucial role in trends such as 5G, cloud computing, AI, and autonomous driving. But we’re more than just a tech company. We value diversity, inclusion and sustainability as we strive to make a positive impact on the world. Our development programs help support your growth, shaping your future and pushing the boundaries of innovation to unleash potential.

As a Field Service Engineer Intern, you’ll gain hands-on experience supporting advanced semiconductor equipment while learning how engineers help customers keep complex manufacturing systems operating safely and reliably.

Based at our customer site in Hillsboro, Oregon, this internship gives you the opportunity to put your engineering education into practice in a high-tech semiconductor manufacturing environment. You’ll work alongside experienced Field Service Engineers, receive hands-on training and mentorship, and contribute to real technical projects and equipment-support activities.

Throughout the internship, you’ll gain exposure to technologies such as vacuum systems, plasma, chemical delivery, robotics, sensors, advanced metrology, electrical and mechanical systems, and complex hardware-software interactions.

You’ll also have a defined internship project with clear objectives and deliverables, allowing you to apply your technical knowledge to a real engineering challenge. At the conclusion of the internship, you’ll have the opportunity to present your project, results, and key learnings to the team.
