Control Technology Datascience/ Vision Engineering Mechatronics Software Technical Informatics

Are you a proactive team player with experience as a software engineer in a machine building environment? Do you want to work on innovative and technically challenging mechatronic projects and have experience with machine vision? Then this position at DEMCON is for you!

About Demcon

Our companies each distinguish themselves in their own fields with unique expertise and skills. With these, they help clients to perform better and achieve more. Driven by a passion for technology, our companies can join forces. By sharing knowledge and collaborating, we make a greater societal impact.

Our business unit Demcon Industrial Systems (DIS) develops and realizes a wide variety of projects for the (complex) machine building market. The projects range from partial development or a proof of principle setup to complete machines and total system solutions for our customers in the industry. Our projects are often at the interface of machine control, machine vision, data science, and artificial intelligence.

For our branch in Groningen we are looking for a versatile, enthusiastic software engineer.

What are you going to do?

As a software engineer, you translate customer specifications into the required software solutions. You work within a multidisciplinary team, with short lines of communication with your colleagues from the other disciplines. You structure the system design into a working machine control system. To do this, you use BRIX, our standard machine control platform based on TwinCAT 3 (ST) and Beckhoff hardware. You are involved in testing and commissioning machine controls. In addition, you are a sparring partner for your fellow engineers and the customer.

What are you bringing?

  • A completed bachelor's or master's degree in a software-related technical field;
  • Proven experience in a similar role within industrial automation, machine building or mechatronic systems;
  • Erving with object-oriented software development;
  • Experience with TwinCAT 3 (ST) and Beckhoff is desired;
  • Relevant knowledge of machine vision / smart cameras is a plus;
  • Relevant knowledge of machine safety, motion, drives and/or robot control is a plus.

What do we offer you?

At DEMCON, you work on technically challenging projects where your experience is directly visible in the quality of our solutions. You are given the space to steer software choices, coach colleagues technically, and contribute to the further development of our standard platforms, including BRIX.

In addition, we value a pleasant workplace, personal attention, and a healthy work-life balance. We deliberately discourage overtime because we know how important home is.

In addition, you can count on:

  • A good, competitive salary;
  • 31 days off and 8% vacation allowance;
  • A good pension plan with Zwitserleven;
  • The opportunity to follow training and courses through the Demcon Academy that will allow you to further develop your knowledge;
  • A laptop and phone from work;
  • Bicycle plan;
  • Active staff association (monthly activities such as get-togethers and an annual Demcon weekend) and annual sporting events.
