• Process computers for climate control and the management of irrigation systems
• Electrical installations such as switchboards and cabling, (LED) lighting

Finally, if you wish, you can help with the drafting and design of electrical cabinets. You will contribute to schematics, cabinet layout and optimisations. You will combine your practical technical experience with design work.

• You enjoy combining hands‑on technical work with analytical thinking
