Linux Engineer Job Description
Introduction

We are at the heart of ASML and our hearts beat Linux!
Since the number of our projects is continuously growing, our department is growing as well. We are looking for people who are as passionate about Linux as we are. We also love Python, virtualization, abstracting operating systems and we love to put it all together and create unique, reliable systems which will enable our internal clients to create state of the art technical solutions.
