Electronics Specialist

What are you going to do?

As an Electronics Specialist at Nedap, you play an important role in ensuring the quality and consistency of all PCB designs within our organization. You support our R&D teams by maintaining reliable component libraries, clear design guidelines, and a streamlined design process. In doing so, you contribute directly to scalable and future-proof hardware development.

In this role, you work closely with experienced R&D engineers who develop PCBs for a wide range of applications. The complexity varies from 2-layer to 12-layer designs (with 4-layer as the mainstream), involving technologies such as high-power, high-voltage, high-speed, RFID, and HF.

You are not responsible for independently designing PCBs. Instead, you ensure that designs meet quality standards, are manufacturable, and align well with production processes. You will also have the opportunity to further professionalize and standardize our PCB design methodology. In doing so, you will develop into the specialist within Nedap in the field of PCB design quality and tooling.

Your responsibilities

Component library management

Maintain and develop component libraries across different systems such as PLM, Altium, and SolidWorks.

PCB design reviews

Review PCB designs and identify potential issues early, so they can be resolved together with R&D.

Generating manufacturing data

After a design is released, generate and store manufacturing data in our PLM environment.

Developing 3D models

Create 3D models of PCB assemblies in SolidWorks based on released bills of materials.

Technical point of contact

Support R&D engineers with questions related to PCB design methodology and tooling.

Application management

Manage PCB design software such as Altium and Pulsonix, including updates, user management, and maintenance of server and client software.

Component lifecycle management

Manage lifecycle changes of components and ensure compliance data such as RoHS and REACH remains up to date.

Your team

You will become part of the PLM team, a central team that plays an important role in supporting hardware development within Nedap. The team ensures that R&D engineers can work with reliable data, well-configured tools, and consistent processes.

The team currently consists of specialists, including PCB design specialists, a PLM application manager, and a CAD application manager. Together, you operate at the intersection of R&D and IT and work closely with other teams such as IT Infrastructure and the Service Desk.

What's in it for you?

As an Electronics Specialist at Nedap, you make a valuable contribution to our goal: making people happier and more successful in their professional lives. In addition to your salary, you are entitled to a thirteenth month, a good pension scheme, and profit sharing with the opportunity to become a shareholder of Nedap.

Everything we do revolves around trust and autonomy. That’s why, along with your colleagues, you decide on your own working hours and vacation days to maintain a healthy work-life balance. We also place great value on personal and professional growth. You will receive a comprehensive introduction, and we encourage you to continually develop yourself.

Required skills

We are looking for a specialist who works accurately and enjoys improving design processes and the technical quality of products. You work in a structured way and have a strong focus on quality. In addition, you enjoy collaborating with colleagues from different disciplines and are able to communicate effectively in a multidisciplinary R&D environment to achieve the best solutions together.

• Demonstrable knowledge of electronics
• Experience with PCB design, preferably using Altium Designer
• Affinity with 3D CAD design, preferably SolidWorks
• You have a good command of both Dutch and English.
