Job Description
Complex automation systems. Technical challenges every day. A role where your mechanical skills really matter.
Are you the mechanic who wants to understand the problem?
When an automated system stops, you don't just replace a component and move on.
You investigate. You listen. You inspect. You test. You find out what is really causing the problem and make sure the system gets back into operation safely and reliably.
If you enjoy troubleshooting, working with automation and solving technical problems on-site, we want to meet you.
Working with automation in a high-tech environment
You will work on a large industrial site with a wide variety of automated systems, machinery and technical installations.
As a Service Mechanic, you will be responsible for keeping automated equipment operational and supporting the resolution of technical issues.
You will work closely with other mechanics, technicians, engineers and operators. Because of the variety of systems and equipment, you will face new technical challenges on a regular basis.
What will you do?
Your main focus will be service, troubleshooting and maintenance of automated machinery and installations.
Your responsibilities include:
- Diagnosing mechanical and technical faults in automated systems
- Troubleshooting conveyors, motors, gearboxes and moving equipment
- Investigating recurring faults and identifying root causes
- Carrying out corrective and preventive maintenance
- Repairing, adjusting and replacing mechanical components
- Supporting troubleshooting of sensors, actuators and automation systems
- Working together with automation and electrical technicians
- Testing machinery after repairs and ensuring it is ready for operation
- Supporting improvements to system reliability and performance
- Documenting faults, repairs and technical findings
- Sharing technical knowledge and solutions with colleagues
You don't simply fix what is broken.
You want to understand why it broke in the first place.
Who are we looking for?
You have a strong mechanical background and enjoy working with automated machinery.
You are:
- Hands-on and technically minded
- Experienced in mechanical troubleshooting
- Curious about automation and technology
- Comfortable working independently
- A practical problem solver
- Able to work under pressure when equipment is down
- Willing to work with both mechanical and technical systems
- Interested in developing your knowledge of automation
- A team player who enjoys working with engineers and technicians
Experience in industrial maintenance, machine building, logistics automation, manufacturing, automotive, mechatronics or technical service is an advantage.
You don't have to be an automation specialist already.
We are looking for someone with strong mechanical skills who wants to grow further into automation.
What do we offer?
- Salary up to €4,600 gross per month, depending on experience
- Up to 30% shift allowance
- 27 vacation days
- Holiday allowance
- Overtime compensation
- Travel allowance
- Paid technical training
- A modern and professional industrial environment
- Exposure to advanced automation technology
- Experienced technicians and engineers to work with
- Opportunities to develop your mechanical and automation skills
- Long-term career opportunities
Why this job?
Because this is more than just maintenance.
You will work with automated machinery, mechanical systems and modern industrial technology, solving problems that require both practical skills and technical thinking.
One day you may be troubleshooting a conveyor system. The next, you could be investigating a gearbox failure, replacing mechanical components or working together with an automation technician to identify the cause of a system fault.
If you are a mechanic who wants to move further into automation and technical service, this is an opportunity to develop your skills while working with complex machinery.
