Work History

Technical Support Escalation Office

ASML
07.2018 - Current

Support Twinscan Factory manufacturing operations by solving technical disturbances, creating containments, improving solving speed, driving zero repeat, managing technical escalations and increasing solving power of the manufacturing departments.

Software Developer

Amadeus IT Group
12.2012 - 05.2018

Taking part in developing our main product (Cytric expence) that was focused on expense and travel management software and is used by major German companies.

I used Javascript to do programming in the browser on the basis of MVC design pattern.

Research Assistant

VU University Amsterdam
01.2007 - 12.2013

Using state-of-the-art experimental setup (based on Velocity Map Imaging) to advance the understanding of molecular photodissociation. Investigation of pulsed molecular beams generated by a novel piezovalve.

Optical Engineer

Ushio Xtreme Technologies
01.2012 - 06.2012

Development of Extreme UV lithographic sources. I took part in the assembly of the Collector Module and Debris Mitigation System.

Physicist

University of Groningen
