I have always viewed MKS as a team of collaborative problem-solvers, invested in the future of science, technology and the success of our customers. Our passion, creativity and focus drive us to continuously improve and push the boundaries of possibility.

We want to enhance the world around us. We want to innovate. We want to do more. We know this is possible when we have an exceptional team working together.

MKS enables technologies that transform our world. We deliver foundational technology solutions to leading edge semiconductor manufacturing, advanced electronics and specialty industrial applications. We apply our broad science and engineering capabilities to create instruments, subsystems, systems, and process control solutions that improve process performance, optimize productivity and enable unique innovations for many of the world’s leading technology and industrial companies. Our solutions are critical to addressing the challenges of miniaturization and complexity in advanced device manufacturing by enabling increased power, speed and feature enhancement for optimized connectivity, as well as ever-increasing performance requirements across a wide array of specialty industrial applications.

Chances are you have purchased or own a product that has been made possible by our technology. I am very proud of that.

Founded in 1961, MKS is organized into three divisions:

  • The Vacuum Solutions Division (VSD), provides a broad range of instruments, components and subsystems, which are derived from our core competencies in pressure measurement and control, flow measurement and control, gas and vapor delivery, gas composition analysis, electronic control technology, reactive gas generation and delivery, power generation and delivery, and vacuum technology.
  • The Photonics Solutions Division (PSD), provides a broad range of instruments, components and subsystems, which are derived from our core competencies in lasers, photonics, optics, temperature sensing, precision motion control and vibration control.
  • The Equipment Solutions Division (ESD), provides a range of laser-based systems and test products, including laser-based systems for printed circuit board ("PCB") manufacturing, which include flexible interconnect PCB processing systems and high-density interconnect solutions for rigid PCB manufacturing and substrate processing, and multi-layer ceramic capacitor test systems.

Our culture is based on our Guiding Principles:

  • Grow: Enabling Sustainable & Profitable Growth
  • Win: Win as a Team
  • Innovate: Innovation is a Core Capability
  • Own: Own It!

We are committed to diversity, equity & inclusion. Our employees are encouraged to bring new thinking & ideas to life. Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) is a priority to us; we are proud of our ongoing commitment to environment, social and governance initiatives. If you are excited about pushing the boundaries of technology, we would love to have you join our team.
