ASML, the Dutch maker of the lithography machines that print chip circuits, has had employees in Arizona since 1984 and runs its U.S. head office and the U.S. hub of its Global Support Center in Chandler, Arizona. ASML's Chandler engineers serve Intel. ASML's Phoenix training academy, inaugurated in November 2025, trains engineers on its EUV, DUV, metrology and inspection systems. ASML said that month, in an announcement published by the Arizona Commerce Authority, that it employs about 700 people in Arizona, including engineers stationed inside the state's chip factories.

Modern AI runs on physical silicon, and that silicon passes through several hands before it ever answers a question. Here is the path, and where ASML sits on it. Stages not marked below are shown for context and are not claims about ASML.
ASML, headquartered in Veldhoven in the Netherlands, makes the lithography machines that chipmakers use to print circuit patterns onto silicon wafers. It describes itself as the world's only manufacturer of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography systems, the machines used for the most critical layers of the most advanced chips, and it also makes the older deep ultraviolet (DUV) machines that print most other layers. ASML was founded in 1984 as a venture between Philips and ASM International.
ASML had 2025 net sales of 32.7 billion euros and employs more than 45,500 people.
Customers: Its customers are the world's leading chipmakers; its largest single customer bought 23.9 percent of its 2025 sales.
Arizona history: ASML has had employees in Arizona since 1984: its company history places a handful of staff in Tempe that July, and Tempe became its North American headquarters in 1985. In 2002 it opened a $72 million training center in the ASU Research Park in Tempe.
Chandler: It moved its U.S. head office from Tempe to Chandler by early 2014 and to its current building at 2625 W. Geronimo Place in 2021, and its 2025 annual report names Chandler as its U.S. head office. Chandler is also the U.S. hub of ASML's Global Support Center, one of three sites that give round-the-clock support to the company's field engineers worldwide. ASML said in November 2025, in an announcement published by the Arizona Commerce Authority, that it employs about 700 people in Arizona, many of them engineers stationed inside the region's fabs.
Fab customers: Those fabs are its customers. ASML says nearly 150 of its customer support engineers in Chandler serve Intel, whose Fab 52 there makes Intel 18A processors; reporters touring Fab 52 in 2025 saw ASML EUV machines at the heart of the building.
For TSMC, ASML built up a Phoenix office in 2022, 15 minutes from TSMC's new fab, reaching 140 staff and sending more than 100 engineers to Taiwan to train. The relationships run deep: ASML shipped its first EUV prototype to TSMC in 2010, and in 2012 Intel, TSMC and Samsung bought stakes in ASML and committed 1.38 billion euros to its EUV and 450 mm research.
Phoenix training academy: In November 2025 ASML inaugurated its U.S. Technical Training Academy at 1717 E. Grant St. in Phoenix, near Sky Harbor airport. The 56,000-square-foot academy began training engineers in 2024 and is the only ASML site in the country that trains engineers across all of its product lines. ASML expects it to train more than 1,000 engineers a year, eventually 2,000, and other chipmakers can pay to train their own engineers there.
Pinnacle Peak warehouse: City of Phoenix permits show ASML fitting out two new warehouse buildings at 600 and 650 E. Pinnacle Peak Rd. in north Phoenix in 2022, about 131,000 square feet in all, mostly warehouse, with "chip storage/repair" given as the type of business. Permits for the storage racks in both buildings are titled "DHL ASML", for "metal and plastic parts, tools and machinery used in the manufacture of semiconductor chips", and later fire permits name DHL Supply Chain as the occupant. Building B at 600 E. Pinnacle Peak Rd. was also fitted with an ASML cleanroom (2022) and purge equipment for two actuator sensor units, which control sensitive optical mirrors (2024).
AI demand: ASML ties its current growth to artificial intelligence. In October 2026 its chief executive said customers keep raising their equipment demand forecasts, "driven primarily by their views on the size and duration of AI-related investments", and ASML said it expects 2026 net sales of between 44 and 45 billion euros.
Worldwide technology: Its newest High-NA EUV machines are in volume production at Intel on select layers of some 18A chips, and TSMC plans to use them in high-volume manufacturing from 2030.
In January 2026, ASML said proposed changes to its Technology and IT organizations could result in a net reduction of about 1,700 positions, mostly in the Netherlands and some in the United States, while it would also create new engineering jobs. In June 2026, Dutch union members approved a social plan with ASML that runs for two years from June 1, 2026, and Bits&Chips reported that no compulsory layoffs will take place before May 1, 2027. ASML has not published a revised total.

Arizona AI is currently tracking 15 open ASML roles in Arizona, across Chandler and N Phoenix. The count updates automatically as ASML adds and removes postings, and duplicate listings for the same role are merged.
The largest categories among current listings at ASML in Arizona are internships & early career (4), facilities, construction & utilities (2), manufacturing technicians & skilled trades (1), supply chain & procurement (1). Categories are derived from job titles by Arizona AI.
ASML lists Arizona roles in Chandler and N Phoenix. Locations are shown exactly as ASML publishes them. Employers sometimes label roles with the metropolitan area rather than the specific campus city.
Each listing on this page links through to ASML's own application page. Arizona AI does not collect applications or charge job seekers, and roles are aggregated from the employer's official careers system rather than from third-party recruiters.
ASML's U.S. head office is in Chandler, where it runs the U.S. hub of its round-the-clock Global Support Center along with sales and corporate teams. It also runs a technical training academy near Phoenix Sky Harbor airport and an office in North Phoenix, and city permits show it fitted out a warehouse with a cleanroom on Pinnacle Peak Road in north Phoenix. ASML said in November 2025, in an announcement published by the Arizona Commerce Authority, that it employs about 700 people in Arizona, many of them engineers stationed inside the region's fabs to operate and service lithography machines.
No. ASML makes the lithography machines chipmakers use to print chips, and it builds them mainly in Veldhoven, the Netherlands; its annual report lists its manufacturing sites and none is in Arizona. Its Arizona work is customer support, training, sales and corporate functions, plus a north Phoenix warehouse with a cleanroom.
Intel and TSMC. ASML says nearly 150 of its customer support engineers work in Chandler serving Intel, whose Fab 52 there makes Intel 18A chips. In 2022 ASML built up a Phoenix office 15 minutes from TSMC's new fab to support it, and ASML names Intel, TSMC and Samsung as the customers its U.S. engineers support.
Lithography prints a chip's circuit pattern onto a silicon wafer with light. EUV uses light with a 13.5-nanometer wavelength, far shorter than older 193 and 248 nm machines, so it can print the tiny features in the most advanced chips, including AI processors and AI memory. ASML says it is the only company that makes EUV machines, and that AI is now driving demand for them.
Intel says it uses High-NA EUV in high-volume production on select layers of some Core Ultra Series 3 (Panther Lake) processors, but its September 2026 announcement with ASML does not say which fab. The High-NA sites Intel and ASML name are in Oregon: ASML's July 15, 2026 announcement says selected Intel 18A layers were qualified on High-NA EUV in Oregon, and Intel's release shows a High-NA tool in its Fab 25 in Oregon.
It is at 1717 E. Grant St. in Phoenix, near Phoenix Sky Harbor airport. The 56,000-square-foot academy has 14 classrooms and a cleanroom, opened formally on November 20, 2025, and is ASML's only U.S. site that trains engineers on EUV, DUV and metrology and inspection systems. ASML expects it to train more than 1,000 engineers a year, eventually 2,000.
Since 1984. ASML's company history says a handful of its employees were working in Tempe in July 1984, the year ASML was founded, and that Tempe became its North American headquarters in 1985. ASML opened a $72 million training center in Tempe in 2002, moved its U.S. head office to Chandler's Price Corridor by early 2014 and to its current Chandler building in 2021.
ASML does not publish prices. Reuters reported in November 2025 that the most advanced EUV tools cost roughly $400 million each and take several 747 cargo planes to ship from the Netherlands.
