Job description

Alberts is an innovative FoodTech startup based in Brussels & Antwerp, founded in 2015 by 3 young entrepreneurs. Our mission? Making a healthy life the easiest option through technology. That’s why we made the first smoothie & soup robot in the world. Interested to join our adventure? We’re hiring an Electro-Mechanical Lead Engineer !

Job Description

As the Lead Mechatronics & CAD at Alberts, you are responsible to lead the design, development and production of the Alberts' product portfolio.

As we have passed the company’s start-up phase, you will not be asked to develop a product prototype, but rather to develop & improve our existing products, including all components and their design in order to help us launch our machine production in a cost efficient way together with our production partner(s). You will be charged with the organization and coordination of continuous reliability and quality tests to make sure our products are fully compliant with all health and safety rules..

Mostly you will be active in our HQ in Wijnegem (Antwerp), but you may be required to visit foreign suppliers as well on a regular basis.

Are you ready to carry out Alberts’ vision for a healthier world and join our young, dynamic team?

If you are the driven, positive team member we’re looking for... then let’s look at some requirements you ideally have in your toolkit:

• You have 10y work experience (specifically in Food Design is a bonus).
• People management: you are able to lead a team and communicate constructively.
• You know your way around Solidworks and have a passion for CAD.
• You are fluent in Dutch & English.
• You have a Master in Electro-Mechanical Engineering or equivalent.
• You have a driver’s license.
