Vacature Project Engineer

We are looking for a Project Engineer!

This will make you happy:

• We offer you a work environment within a medium-sized company, big enough to offer you the right challenges when it comes to your own development, and small enough to know all of your colleagues. This scale also gives you the opportunity to work on the entire engineering process, rather than being just a small part of the chain.
• Just graduated, no work experience yet but still looking for an interesting challenge? We offer you this role!
• You are an absolute team player, but you also love to own your job! You like to independently translate and implement market and customer wishes in product documents, such as drawings, parts lists, construction files, calculations and manuals.
• You see magnet technology as an extra dimension to your acquired expertise.
• You love collaboration! You proactively provide technical support to your colleagues of the production, purchasing and sales departments.
• With your thorough knowledge and clear communication, you like to provide our customers and suppliers with sound technical support.
• As a driven self-starter, you like to own and coordinate various projects in different business units
• Fan of calculations? Yes please! You carry out structural calculations, using the Finite Elements Methods. If you have experience with magnetic calculations, great! If not, no problem, you will learn it on the job.
• In your mechanical designs you like to think ahead to decrease manufacturing and production costs.
• Do you enjoy improving processes? Be our guest! We believe in continuous improvement, so if you want to do your bit, you can!
• You thrive in a fast changing and dynamic environment. Colleagues walking in, meetings being held. You are able to make your contribution when necessary, but also to keep away from things that are less relevant to you at that moment.
• You know how to surprise others with your creative boost, you are able to think outside the box, and to challenge your own and other’s ideas.

More about the role:

You will work mostly for our MST (Magnetic Separation Technology) and MTA (Magnetic Technology & Assemblies) business units and to a lower extent, for our FMP (Flexible Magnetic Products) business unit. MST focuses on the recycling industry, food industry and separation industry. You will take part of R&D projects to design new machines and improve current designs. You will also prepare high quality drawings necessary for the customer orders to be produced according to the sales agreements. For MTA, you will design tooling to build safely and efficiently magnetic assemblies. It is a challenging task which requires creativity, good 3D visualisation and adaptability. In MTA, every project is different. You can therefore expect to be exposed to a large variety of customers, technologies and industries. You will learn about the world of magnets and how to work with them.

This is you:

• Bachelor or Master degree Mechanical Engineering (or equivalent)
• Experience is not a must, enthusiasm and a willingness to learn are!
• Relevant experience in using 3D CAD software (SolidWorks), producing professional 2D drawings, work instructions and PCP’s are a plus
• You have excellent communication skills, in both Dutch and English
• Knowledge of electrical cabinets, electrical motors and/or CE markings is a plus
• You are available for a minimum of 32 hours a week

This is what we offer:
