About the job
What is my role?
Our client requires reinforcement in the field of automation to expand the internal infrastructure. As production is steadily growing and the required machines are conceived and developed internally, we are looking for a profile like yours. You are involved in all steps from the idea to commissioning and develop in various areas. On the one hand, there is the electrical engineering part with the development of controls, electrical/electronic components, programming (PLC), etc. On the other hand, the mechanics, which includes the design of components, assemblies, and entire systems. You also take the lead during the subsequent commissioning and ensure that the machines transition into error-free continuous operation.
What do I need to be successful?
Ideally, you have training as an automation technician and have furthered your education in electrical engineering at a university of applied sciences.

The following attributes would be desirable: Electrical Engineering at university of applied sciences level, system technology, PLC, control development, robotics, mechanical + electrical design, development of special machines from A to Z, commissioning, troubleshooting, etc. The more you bring, the better. Do you only bring the electrical or the mechanical part? We are also happy to review your documents.
What are my advantages?
You can expect a highly interesting, production-related position in special machine construction, which is not available every day. Here you can deepen your knowledge in various topics and develop machines of the latest generation. Everything you have learned in further education or in your previous professional life can be applied here. Are you a developer through and through? Then you should not miss this opportunity.
