This is how you make an Impact

As a Test Engineer, you are responsible for using your electronics expertise to develop both the test strategy and the test setup for our products. You work with both hardware and software, designing and programming the test setup and implementing it in the production environment where the testing takes place. This is a development‑focused role, with a strong emphasis on creating electronic test solutions.

You analyze existing designs and determine the most complete and effective test strategy. You do this in close collaboration with colleagues and electronics developers, both internally and externally at the customer. After defining the strategy, you implement the tests in production. Based on the test results, you define and execute improvement actions to optimize the test strategy. We develop tests for PCBA’s as well as complete end products. Together with your colleagues—a team of four Test Engineers—you ensure that production issues are detected quickly and that defective test setups are repaired promptly.

This is what we offer you

  • A challenging and informal working environment within the Engineering department of an international organization.

  • Plenty of opportunities for personal development and growth.

  • Strong coaching and guidance in a growing company that values people and sustainability.

  • A competitive salary based on your knowledge and experience (full‑time).

  • 27 vacation days plus 13 additional ADV days.

This is what you bring to the Team

  • You have a bachelor’s degree in Electrical/ Electronics engineering.

  • You are familiar with electronic design and how electronics function.

  • You can read, interpret, and analyze technical product documentation.

  • You have an affinity with software development.

  • Soft skills such as:

    • Analytical thinking

    • Problem‑solving

    • Communication

    • Teamwork

    • Attention to detail

    • Proactivity

Your daily responsibilities include
