ASML Holding N.V. announced plans on Monday to hire 1,000 additional employees in Taiwan this year.
This target increases the company's original recruitment plan of 600.
The expansion raises ASML's Taiwanese workforce from over 4,500 employees.
The total headcount will exceed 5,500, representing a substantial portion of its global staff.
ASML currently operates two factories in Taiwan.
The company is building a new facility in New Taipei.
Surging client demand drives this expansion to boost local customer support, manufacturing, and supply chain capabilities.
The hiring aligns with customers like TSMC increasing capital expenditures to meet high demand for AI chips.
