Why work for ZEISS?

Global technology leader in the production of systems and modules for microchip production with semiconductor manufacturing optics, photomask systems and process control solutions, ZEISS supplies key technologies for the production of ultra-fine conductor track structures on silicon wafers – the raw material used to make microchips. Advances in computer technology largely rely on the ongoing development of optical lithography – every new generation enables even finer structures to be produced on the microchips. This makes circuits more compact, resulting in more powerful and more energy efficient microchips every year.

ZEISS has been driving the development of semiconductor manufacturing technology right from day one. The company's unique extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography is enabling a series of further generations of microchips with even higher integration and performance.

ZEISS microscopes make tiny structures in nano dimensions visible, and highly efficient metrology systems guarantee productivity and quality in industry. Prominent scientists put their trust in ZEISS microscopes when conducting their research. Robert Koch, who discovered the bacterium that causes tuberculosis in 1900, was just one of our famous customers. To this day, researchers from all over the world use light, electron/ion and X-ray microscopes from ZEISS to make even the smallest structures and fastest processes visible.

Industrial metrology can also look back on a tradition spanning over 100 years. Measuring technology and software solutions from ZEISS provide perfect results in many sectors of industry, such as e-mobility, medical technology, additive manufacturing and aircraft construction, where precision, quality and efficiency are essential success factors. With a strong, broad technology and software portfolio, comprehensive expertise and a global presence, ZEISS is the preferred partner of industry. In addition to extensive service offerings, innovative technologies such as 3D X-ray metrology round off the portfolio.

ZEISS medical technology helps doctors all over the world to diagnose and treat diseases more effectively. Doctors around the world use surgical microscopes from ZEISS for their microsurgical procedures. The spectrum extends from visualization possibilities for neuro, ENT and spine surgery to dental microscopes and medical loupes for dentistry. In addition, ZEISS offers a system for intraoperative radiotherapy. The company offers one of the widest product portfolios on the market in ophthalmology and enables efficient workflows with specific workflow solutions – from the treatment of chronic eye diseases to surgical ophthalmology and refractive surgery. Digitalization is an opportunity for the healthcare sector that ZEISS medical technology is actively shaping: digitally networked workflow solutions form the ZEISS Medical Ecosystem – a fully integrated environment consisting of devices, software applications and a cloud-based data platform. The ZEISS Medical Ecosystem supports connectivity, the integration of data and digital applications in clinical workflows.

ZEISS is also synonymous with better vision. Every year millions of people opt for ZEISS eyeglass lenses and thus for optimum visual comfort. From instruments and apps for precise vision analysis to customized eyeglass lenses, ZEISS offers the unique combination of ophthalmological and optometric expertise unmatched by any other manufacturer.

Innovative lenses from ZEISS provide relaxed, natural vision in all situations to meet all requirements. ZEISS is also synonymous with breathtaking moments: photographers and videographers rely on ZEISS camera lenses to capture unforgettable moments and stories. Consumers rely on ZEISS technology when they use their smartphones to capture the most beautiful moments in photos and videos. A large proportion of movies are filmed using ZEISS lenses – for both the silver screen and for streaming services. ZEISS optics used in spotting scopes and riflescopes are highly regarded worldwide.
