Are you a hands-on technician who thrives in high-stakes environments and enjoys solving technical issues quickly and safely?
We’re looking for a Service Technician to join a Control Room Team at one of the Netherlands’ most advanced and complex technical facilities.

In this critical role, based near Eindhoven, you’ll monitor building systems, respond to technical disruptions, and ensure that essential operations continue without interruption.

Carry out safe, on-site repairs using LOTO (Lock Out-Tag Out) procedures.
Perform regular technical inspections and report anomalies.
Act as part of the High Priority Team during emergencies such as fire alarms, gas leaks, and elevator faults.
Work on a 3-shift rotation (3 mornings, 3 afternoons, 3 days off), with a planned transition to a 5-shift system.

What We’re Looking For

You’re calm under pressure, a quick thinker, and love solving technical problems. You’re safety-conscious, proactive, and a strong team player.

Your background includes:

Experience in a hands-on technical role (e.g., service technician, maintenance engineer, or support specialist).
A completed N2 or higher technical qualification (Electrical, Mechanical, or similar).
Previous work in high-tech or critical environments (data centers, hospitals, industrial plants, etc.).
Understanding of electrical and/or mechanical systems.
Willingness to work shifts and respond to on-site emergencies.
Familiarity with LOTO and safety-first procedures.

Education

N2 or higher in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related technical fields.

Apply now and become part of a mission-critical team that keeps operations running 24/7 in the heart of the Netherlands.
