Job Description

Are you a skilled technician who wants to work with more than just one type of machine or technology?

Do you enjoy understanding how complex machinery works, solving technical problems and continuously learning new technologies?

Then this could be the next step in your technical career.

We are looking for a Maintenance Technician with a strong mechanical background and experience in TIG welding, who wants to develop into a versatile all-round technician.

You will work in a high-tech industrial environment, surrounded by complex machinery, production installations and different technical disciplines.

Think of it as a technical playground: you start with what you already know, but you will constantly encounter new technology, new machines and new challenges.

Your foundation may be mechanical engineering and TIG welding, but over time you can develop further into electrical engineering, instrumentation, pneumatics, automation, PLCs and troubleshooting.

You don't need to know everything from day one.

We are looking for someone who is technically curious and wants to learn.

Your role

As a Maintenance Technician, you will be responsible for keeping complex industrial machinery and installations running reliably.

Your work can include:

  • Preventive and corrective maintenance.
  • Troubleshooting mechanical and technical issues.
  • Repairing, modifying and improving machinery.
  • TIG welding and mechanical fabrication.
  • Disassembling, assembling and aligning machine components.
  • Carrying out maintenance and modifications on industrial installations.
  • Supporting technical projects, upgrades and overhauls.
  • Identifying the root cause of recurring technical problems.
  • Working with experienced senior technicians from different disciplines.
  • Developing your knowledge of electrical systems, instrumentation, pneumatics and automation.

The goal is not simply to fix a machine and move on.

We want you to understand why something fails, how the system works and how it can be improved.

That is what makes this role different.

You will work closely with experienced senior technicians who have years of practical knowledge.

They will teach you how to approach complex technical problems, understand machinery and troubleshoot faults effectively.

You bring the curiosity. We provide the environment and the knowledge to help you grow.

Who are you?

We are looking for a hands-on technician with a strong technical mindset.

You don't have to be an expert in every discipline.

What matters is that you enjoy technology, like solving problems and are eager to learn.

You bring:

  • At least MBO level 3 or an equivalent technical qualification.
  • Experience in industrial maintenance or mechanical engineering.
  • Experience with TIG welding.
  • A solid mechanical engineering background.
  • A practical and hands-on mentality.
  • Strong problem-solving skills.
  • Attention to quality and safety.
  • The ability to work independently as well as part of a technical team.
  • A willingness to develop your knowledge across multiple technical disciplines.
  • Good command of Dutch is essential.
  • A no-nonsense mentality: you see a problem, take ownership and work towards a solution.

Experience in a high-tech, production, process, food or chemical environment is an advantage.

What do you get?

  • Salary of up to €57,000 gross per year.
  • Primarily working day shifts.
  • A high-tech environment with a wide variety of machinery and technical challenges.
  • A strong and experienced senior technical team.
  • The opportunity to develop into an all-round Maintenance Technician / Technical Specialist.
  • Training and certification opportunities, including VCA, NEN 3140 and Siemens S7/Step7.
  • Exposure to multiple technical disciplines.
  • The opportunity to work for large international production and process companies.
  • A varied role where you can continuously expand your technical knowledge.
  • An organisation that genuinely invests in the development of its people.
  • A professional, practical and no-nonsense working environment.

Your next technical challenge

Maybe you are currently a mechanical technician.

Maybe you are a TIG Welder who wants to move into maintenance.

Or perhaps you are already working in industrial maintenance but want to work in an environment with more complex machinery, more technology and more opportunities to develop.

Then this could be the right move for you.

You don't need to know everything. You need to want to learn.

You bring your mechanical skills and TIG welding experience.

We give you the technical playground to become a true all-round Maintenance Technician.
