Job description

We are expanding our Mechanical Design Team and are looking for a motivated Mechanical Engineer who enjoys working in a technically challenging and creative environment. You’ll be part of a small, dynamic team that designs and develops high-precision systems involving lasers, ultrasound, and robotics. From concept development to commissioning, you’ll play a key role in turning complex ideas into functional, high-quality machines.

About the Role

As a Mechanical Design Engineer, you will be responsible for the full design process of precision mechanical systems — from 3D modeling and prototyping to testing and implementation. You’ll collaborate with other engineers across disciplines, contributing your expertise in mechanical design, manufacturing methods, and product integration.

You’ll have a great degree of freedom to bring creative ideas to life. Every project is unique — whether you’re helping finalize a new design, developing inspection systems, or integrating robotics into existing equipment. This is not a purely theoretical role: we’re looking for someone who enjoys combining hands‑on work with technical problem-solving.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop mechanical components and assemblies for advanced high-tech systems.
• Translate concepts into manufacturable, reliable, and cost-effective designs.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (electrical, control, and software).
• Contribute to testing, validation, and commissioning of new equipment.
• Take ownership of projects from start to finish and support continuous improvement efforts.

Your Profile

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or similar.
• Experience with 3D CAD software (Inventor preferred; other tools such as SolidWorks or Creo are also suitable).
• Affinity with precision mechanics, mechatronic systems, or robotic automation.
• Hands‑on mentality — not afraid to build, test, and iterate.
• Creative, analytical, and self‑driven, with good communication skills in English (Dutch is a plus).
• Open-minded team player who enjoys working in a collaborative environment.
