Summary
Niels Disbergen is a software engineer and senior project manager with 11 years of experience applying a strong neuroscience and cognitive‑science research background to complex semiconductor lithography projects at ASML. Holding a research MSc (cum laude) in Cognitive Neuroscience, he translates deep analytical skills into coordinating cross‑platform EUV and DUV technology deployments from feasibility to field support. He leads seven multidisciplinary international core teams, managing high‑stakes escalations with customers, suppliers and internal stakeholders while shaping cross‑sector strategic roadmaps. Comfortable at the intersection of advanced R&D and productization, he builds multi‑level reporting structures that enable rapid, data‑driven decisions in dynamic technical environments. Outside optics, his Github persona reflects an ongoing interest in brains, data and machine learning—evidence of a rare blend of domain science, coding and systems leadership. Colleagues rely on him for quickly acquiring new technical knowledge and devising pragmatic strategies that align engineering outcomes with business goals.
