Job description

Workster is recruiting for a skilled E-Bike Mechanic to join a growing urban mobility team in Amsterdam. You will maintain, diagnose and repair a fleet of electric bicycles and light electric vehicles, ensuring safe, reliable service for customers across the city. This is an excellent opportunity for a hands‑on technician who enjoys troubleshooting electrical and mechanical systems in a fast‑paced, customer‑focused environment.

Your Role

• Perform routine maintenance, inspections and servicing on e‑bikes and associated components (motors, batteries, controllers, brakes, drivetrains, suspension).

• Diagnose and repair electrical faults, mechanical issues, and connectivity or software problems using diagnostic tools and technical documentation.

• Assemble and prepare new e‑bikes for deployment, including final quality checks and test rides.

• Replace and fit parts (tyres, tubes, brake pads, cables, batteries) and manage stock of common spare parts and consumables.

• Log work completed and fault findings accurately in the maintenance system, including recommendations for recurring issues and preventive actions.

• Collaborate with operations and customer support to prioritise repairs and respond to urgent service requests across Amsterdam.

• Advise colleagues and customers on basic e‑bike care, safe operation, and battery handling/storage best practices.

• Maintain a clean, safe workshop environment and follow health & safety procedures at all times.

Your Qualifications

• Proven experience as a bicycle mechanic, ideally with specific experience repairing e‑bikes or light electric vehicles.

• Good understanding of electric drivetrain components, battery systems, wiring, and basic electronics; able to read wiring diagrams and use multimeters.

• Competence with standard mechanical tools and workshop equipment, and experience with wheel truing, brake adjustment, and gear indexing.

• Fluent in Dutch and comfortable working in English; clear, customer‑focused communication is important.

• Strong problem‑solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently and as part of a team across a busy urban operation.

• Right to work in the Netherlands and willingness to work occasional early starts or weekends as required by operations.

• Relevant vocational qualifications (e.g., cycle mechanic certificate, electrical or mechanical apprenticeship) are desirable but practical experience will be considered.

The Offer

• Permanent full‑time contract based in Amsterdam with competitive salary depending on experience.

• Paid training on company‑specific e‑bike systems and safety procedures.

• Comprehensive benefits package including contributions to health insurance and transport allowances.

• Opportunity to work with a sustainable mobility provider and contribute to greener urban transport in Amsterdam.

• Supportive, multicultural team environment and clear progression routes within operations and technical roles.

• Modern workshop facilities in Amsterdam, with supplied tools and PPE.
