About the position.

As a breakdown technician, you are the one who gets called when things go wrong. You quickly analyse what is going on, take safety measures and solve the problem — ideally in a way that stops it from coming back. You work under time pressure but keep a cool head.

What will you be doing?

  • Analysing faults in mechanical, pneumatic and electromechanical systems
  • Carrying out structured diagnosis based on symptoms, measurement results and diagrams
  • Repairing defects in drives, sensors, actuators and cabling
  • Documenting the cause of the fault, the action taken and advice to prevent recurrence
  • Coordinating the order and scheduling of repair work with production
  • Identifying structural causes and recommending improvements to the maintenance department

What we ask of you.

  • MBO level 3 or 4 in Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering
  • At least 3 years' experience in a comparable breakdown or maintenance role
  • Proven knowledge of PLC controls (Siemens, Omron or similar) is a strong advantage
  • Resilient under pressure and able to reason systematically under production pressure
  • Driving licence (category B); willing to be available occasionally outside office hours
