  • You work accurately, with strong attention to detail and consistency
  • You enjoy working in a multidisciplinary, international team
  • You take ownership, meet deadlines, and help others do the same
  • You are curious about technology and eager to continuously improve documentation standards

Nice to have:

  • Experience with Solidworks composer and MadCap Flare

  • A Bachelor in Engineering, English, or another relevant field – or equivalent practical experience
  • Knowledge of the Machinery Directive and ISO 20607
  • Experience with 2D and 3D illustration software
  • Experience with authoring, publishing, and content management tools
  • Understanding of the operational and technical aspects of food processing machinery is a strong advantage

🏬 Why Join JBT Marel?
