## Description

**Location:** Eindhoven, the Netherlands (on-site, High Tech Campus) | **Type:** Full-time | **Level:** Medior, about 3 years of relevant experience
**About us**
AIM Solutions is an early-stage deep-tech startup in Eindhoven building inspection and metrology equipment for the semiconductor industry. We are in active build phase, small, and growing.
**The role**
You turn raw measurements into reconstructed images and explain what the images tell us. You work between the optics lab and the software team, and you become our in-house expert on this workflow and upcoming applications of our machine for the semiconductor manufacturing market.
You will:

- Run the path from measurement to result: decide what to measure, run scans on the lab setup, configure and run reconstructions in our Python/JAX pipeline, and judge the quality of the output

- Turn test cases from industry partners into measurement and reconstruction recipes, and automate them into a single-button-press workflow

- Analyze results rigorously and investigate when a reconstruction does not look right: artifacts, convergence, noise, alignment

- Drive the experiment loop with the optics and hardware engineers, and feed findings back into the algorithms and the tool design

**Your profile**

- About 3 years of hands-on experience in a technical role (industry, PhD, or equivalent) with imaging, optics, or scientific data analysis

- Practical experience with phase retrieval or coherent imaging, for example ptychography, CDI, holography, or Fourier-optics-based reconstruction. You have run reconstructions and interpreted the results

- Strong Python, with NumPy and SciPy. You write reproducible analysis code and maintain a pipeline from data ingest to results

- An experimental mindset: you design clean numerical experiments and know what to change to improve a result

- You work well with optics and hardware engineers and turn vague questions into repeatable tests

- Full professional proficiency in English

**Bonus:**

- Hands-on experience with computational imaging and iterative reconstructions

- PyTorch or JAX, GPU computing

- Numerical optimization (gradient-based methods)

- Machine learning on physics-based or scientific data

- HDF5 and large datasets, Linux

We care more about rigor and learning speed than about a perfect match. If you are earlier in your career but have worked with reconstruction data, apply anyway.
**What we offer**

- Ownership of the measurement-to-results workflow of a tool that does not exist anywhere else yet

- Small team, short feedback loops, real impact on the product

- Competitive salary for the Dutch market
