Activities:
To support our very capable and friendly Automation Engineer, we are looking for an equally sympathetic and Hands-on Automation Mastermind. As an Automation Support Engineer in our pilot facility, you choose for an “out-of-the-ordinary” job in a particular working environment at the service of the fast-growing bio-based economy. The colleagues from our technical department are ready to welcome you into their team with open arms! They (and therefore you too!) keep our exceptional pilot facility operational and also take care of the many daily technical adjustments needed to keep all equipment and processes running. You will therefore work closely with our Automation Engineer who is responsible for process control, logging, electrical installations, utilities, ICT and network infrastructure. We are happy to entrust you with the care and updating of the software for process control. In addition, you also follow up the electrical work, including the necessary debugging, corrections and tests at/after start-up. As a true team player you support our technicians, process and maintenance employees and various projects when it comes to electrical, automation and control needs. You also operate "in the field" in other words, not only from your desk, but also in the laboratories and the pilot factory. Due to the vast diversity of projects, you stay far away from routine and get the opportunity to gain new insights and experience again and again. A healthy dose of curiosity is therefore recommended!
