About Trinamics

Trinamics is a well-known, specialized name in technical recruitment in the Netherlands — a familiar and trusted partner not only for candidates, but also for employers. We help technical candidates, from experienced specialists to promising talent, secure a permanent position with strong employers in the high-tech industry. We work on a secondment-to-permanent basis: you start on assignment through Trinamics, with the genuine prospect of a direct contract with the client afterwards. Throughout the assignment, your employment conditions mirror those of the client's own workforce, since the client sets these terms itself.

About our client

Our client is a development and engineering organization in the Eindhoven region and part of a large international industrial group. Working closely with leading customers in the semiconductor industry, (autonomous) robotics, precision positioning and optical communication, they develop and build complex high-tech systems and modules — from first concept and prototype through to qualified end product. Development, engineering and production come together on one site, which means ideas move quickly from the drawing board to a working machine.

What you'll do

As Control Systems Integrator you take the lead in the detailed design and integration of control systems for high-tech applications: semiconductor equipment, (autonomous) robotics, positioning stages and laser-based communication modules. You work side by side with system architects, software engineers and mechatronics teams to bring systems from prototype to end product.

• Designing and implementing controllers, including SW and FW interfaces, on both custom-made and off-the-shelf control platforms (such as PLC software in Beckhoff TwinCAT).
• Integrating, configuring and troubleshooting real-time controllers.
• Carrying out machine calibrations and controller tuning to achieve optimal performance and stability.
• Analyzing system behaviour and identifying improvements based on test results.
• Building tools for simulation, data analysis, diagnostics and visualization.
• Developing and maintaining Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation setups.
• Acting as the technical point of reference within a multidisciplinary engineering team, where testing and validation determine whether a complex system runs reliably and reproducibly.

What you bring

• A Master's or Bachelor's degree in Control Engineering, Mechatronics or a comparable technical discipline.
• At least 5 years of relevant work experience in a lead-engineering or senior engineering role.
• Demonstrable experience with real-time controller integration, controller design, machine calibration and controller tuning.
• Proficiency in one or more of the following: MATLAB/Simulink, TwinCAT, Python, LabVIEW.
• Experience in a high-tech environment such as semiconductors, robotics, positioning stages or laser-based communication modules.
• Good command of English, both spoken and written.

What's on offer

• Employment conditions that are identical to those of the client's own employees, since the client sets these terms.
• Holiday days and ADV in accordance with the client's collective labour agreement.
• A full-time position with a genuine prospect of a direct contract with the client.
• Complex, one-of-a-kind systems for demanding customers, with real ownership over the control architecture.
• A working environment where development, engineering and production are on one site, so you see the result of your work in hardware.

Please note: this role is not suitable for freelancers or self-employed contractors (zzp'ers).
