Job description

As an NPI Engineer at NTS Eindhoven you industrialise customer designs into scalable, cost-efficient, first-time-right production processes in a low-volume, high-complexity environment. In a close-knit team of eight NPI Engineers you take ownership of the entire trajectory—from proof of principle to hand-over to production.

Your main responsibilities are:

• Industrialise customer designs by translating specifications into manufacturable, cost-efficient concepts and defining the full product and process flow;
• Design the series-production process: layout, tooling, qualification strategies, ERP configurations, quality checks and work instructions;
• Lead NPI projects (average duration 1.5–2.5 years) and report to the NPI Project Manager;
• Safeguard cost, quality, delivery reliability and risk;
• Facilitate process validation through Design/Process FMEA, SPC studies and 8D problem-solving to achieve a zero-defect introduction;
• Coordinate with international suppliers on manufacturability, lead times and quality assurance.

Job Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics or a comparable field.
• Experience with NPI/industrialisation, preferably in a high-tech environment.
• Knowledge of assembly and production processes, tooling and test equipment.
• Experience with FMEA, SPC, 8D and statistical analysis methods.
• Strong personality with persuasive power and a commercial mindset.
• Excellent communication and organisational skills in English at minimum; Dutch is a strong plus.

Your terms of employment

• Salary € 4,000–€ 5,500 gross per month (depending on experience);
• 27 vacation days plus 13 ADV days;
• Excellent pension scheme with PME;
• Travel allowance: fixed monthly reimbursement up to 50 km one way at € 0.21/km;
• Personal growth and development opportunities (training/education);
• Laptop and mobile phone;
• Free fresh fruit at work.
