Description du poste

Location: Brussels – 3 days onsite, 2 days remote
Sector: Automation & IT
Company: System Integrator – Engineering & Technology

This position covers the full project lifecycle of IT-driven automation solutions, from concept and development to implementation and support. Focus is on delivering robust SCADA systems, alongside server and infrastructure integration, for a varied range of clients in close collaboration with technical teams.

• Develop and optimize SCADA solutions, with a focus on visualization, user interfaces, and customization (C# or similar languages).
• Work on server and IT infrastructure to enable and maintain automation platforms and related solutions.
• Customize existing SCADA platforms —current projects use an Austrian-developed platform, but experience with any leading SCADA systems (such as WinCC, Ignition, Aveva, Beckhoff) is welcomed.
• Guide customers from requirements mapping and design to system delivery, configuration, and post-implementation aftercare.
• Collaborate closely with Dutch-speaking clients and internal engineering teams to ensure technical alignment throughout all project phases.
• Utilize knowledge of relevant protocols (e.g., OPC UA, Modbus, BACnet, Profibus), server systems, and security systems in support of each project’s long-term performance and reliability.

We are looking for candidates who thrive at the crossroads of engineering, IT, and automation.

• Experience & Background: You have 3 to 5 years of hands-on experience in automation or IT/automation integration. You will receive several months of training.
• Educational Foundation: You hold a bachelor’s degree in Electromechanics, Automation, IT, or a related field. A master’s degree is considered an asset but not essential—we care more about your proactive mindset and applied technical know-how.

We value driven professionals who integrate security best practices into their automation work and are motivated by the thrill of building robust, future-ready systems. If you enjoy merging automation with IT, and thrive in dynamic project environments, you will feel right at home with us.

The perfect match is only one step away.

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all qualified candidates.
