Computer Science

The Scientific Computing team within ASML’s IT R&D Hardware Engineering department supports engineers and researchers developing advanced software solutions used in the world’s most complex semiconductor equipment. Based in Veldhoven, the team helps create reliable and efficient software environments so specialists can focus on innovation. During this internship, you will contribute to improving software quality across multiple development projects. Your work will help establish a consistent testing approach and explore how artificial intelligence can support modern software testing practices. This internship offers the opportunity to make a visible impact within a collaborative and international engineering environment. Your assignment As part of the Scientific Computing team, you will help improve the quality, consistency, and maintainability of software testing across MATLAB-based repositories. You will define a standardized testing framework, investigate the use of AI-supported testing techniques, and help create guidelines that can be adopted by development teams. The results of your work will directly support engineers and researchers working on innovative technology solutions. Your main responsibilities will be:

• Analyze existing test structures and identify opportunities for improvement.
• Develop a standardized approach for writing and organizing automated tests.
• Evaluate how AI tools can support test generation, maintenance, and review activities.
• Explore methods to migrate existing test suites to a standardized format.
• Create practical guidelines and documentation for future adoption.
• Collaborate with software developers and engineering specialists to validate solutions.

• Ensure compatibility with automated build and testing processes., This is a bachelor internship (non-thesis) for minimum 4 months, minimum 4 days per week (2 days on-site). The start date of this internship is as of January/February 2027. The internship provides the opportunity to work on a meaningful challenge in a professional engineering environment. Throughout the internship, you will collaborate with experienced software engineers, researchers, and platform specialists while gaining exposure to software quality practices at scale., This internship is ideal if you enjoy software development, testing, and exploring innovative technologies.
