Job description

Are you currently working as a Maintenance Engineer, Field Service Engineer, Electrical Maintenance Engineer, Electromechanical Engineer, Service Engineer or Senior Service Technician? Your current job title matters less than your technical level and what you can do.

As a Maintenance Engineer, you will join an international maintenance team at one fixed, highly automated logistics site in Utrecht. Together, you keep approximately 14 kilometres of automated systems running 24/7.

Your work combines electrical, mechanical and control-related maintenance. One moment you are tracing an electrical fault or replacing a damaged sensor; the next you may be working on a motor, bearing, shaft or conveyor system. You perform preventive and corrective maintenance, troubleshoot complex faults and investigate root causes to prevent failures from happening again.

Experience with Siemens S7/TIA Portal, Profinet, CAN-bus or comparable industrial control systems is a strong advantage. You do not need to know every system from day one, but you should bring a solid electrical and controls background and feel comfortable diagnosing faults in automated equipment. Further system knowledge can be developed through internal training and on-the-job learning.

You will be part of an international maintenance organisation of around 38 professionals. During each shift, you work in a team of 6-7 colleagues and normally carry out technical work together with one or two team members.

The working language is English; Dutch is not required.

Maintenance can be unpredictable: one shift may be quiet, while the next requires immediate troubleshooting to keep the customer’s operation running.

You work in a 5-shift schedule:

• 2 morning shifts: 06:00-14:30
• 2 afternoon shifts: 14:00-22:30
• 2 night shifts: 22:00-06:30
• followed by 4 days off

You start directly in your own shift team, supported by experienced colleagues, structured on-the-job training and an extensive internal learning platform.
