01ASML's overlay / eBeam bench is 434 current seats, 351 of them in the Netherlands
As of August 26, 2026, 6:44 a.m. PT (8/26), ASML maps 434 current overlay / metrology / litho process-control seats against KLA 42, with 16 open jobs on that slice.
ASML maps 434 current overlay / metrology / litho process-control seats. This page reads the function seat at two litho / metrology names; it does not lead with company-wide totals.
351 of ASML's 434 mapped current seats are in the Netherlands. The United States holds 42. Named countries 351 + 42 = 393 are not a full cover of 434.
KLA maps 42 current. The two add 434 + 42 = 476.
Eindhoven 191, Veldhoven 21, and KLA's 13 of 16 jobs sit in later sections. The first screen cites 434 versus 42.
02Eindhoven maps 191 ASML seats; HQ city Veldhoven maps 21
ASML named cities: Eindhoven 191, Veldhoven 21. The headquarters city is not the thickest layer.
03KLA's 42 are Overlay Metrology Specialist / eBeam seats, and 13 of 16 jobs sit there
KLA maps 42 current overlay / metrology / litho process-control seats and 13 jobs. 13 of the 16 headline jobs sit at KLA.
04476 / 16 is litho process-control, not fab hourly, and not overseas-chip 58
Headline sum adds ASML and KLA only: mapped current 434 + 42 = 476, mapped open jobs 3 + 13 = 16.
