Drachten
We are seeking an experienced System Engineer to join our engineering organization as a consultant, bringing proven expertise in managing technical complexity and driving end-to-end system development. In this role, you will act as the technical integrator and systems thinker, ensuring that mechanical, electrical, software, and human factors come together into a cohesive, high-performing product. You’ll support critical projects from concept to market, applying structured systems engineering methods to define requirements, manage interfaces, and validate performance. If you thrive on connecting disciplines, solving integration challenges, and delivering robust, compliant solutions—this is your opportunity to make a high-impact contribution.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the end-to-end system development process, ensuring alignment across mechanical, electrical, software, and usability domains.
- Translate user needs and business goals into clear, traceable system requirements and high-level architectures.
- Apply systems engineering methodologies such as the V-model, FMEA, Risk Management (RMM), and requirements decomposition throughout the product lifecycle.
- Manage and maintain system requirements using requirements management tools (e.g., DOORS, Jama, Polarion), ensuring full traceability from concept to verification.
- Drive system integration, define interfaces, and lead cross-domain trade-off analyses to optimize performance, reliability, and manufacturability.
- Lead verification and validation planning, ensuring all requirements are tested and evidence is captured for compliance and certification.
- Conduct root-cause analysis of production issues, field failures, and customer feedback—driving corrective actions across design and process.
- Apply modeling and simulation tools (e.g., Matlab, Ansys, CREO, Cameo, or equivalent) to predict system behavior and support decision-making.
- Collaborate with global, multidisciplinary teams—including R&D, quality, manufacturing, and external partners—to ensure technical coherence and project success.
- Champion Design for Six Sigma (DfSS) principles, applying Green Belt (or higher) knowledge to create robust, user-centered designs.
- Support product lifecycle transitions, including handover to manufacturing, launch support, and post-market evaluation.
- Act as a technical reference point, resolving conflicts and guiding teams through complex system challenges.
Qualifications & Skills
- Master’s degree in Electronics, Mechatronics, Physics, (Bio)Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field.
- Minimum 5 years of experience in a lead systems or integration role, managing complexity across multiple engineering domains.
- Proven track record of successfully bringing complex products to market, particularly in regulated or high-reliability environments (e.g., medical, consumer health, industrial).
- Strong expertise in systems engineering tools and processes: V-model, requirement management, interface control, risk assessment.
- Hands‑on experience with requirements management tools—preferably DOORS, or equivalent (e.g., Jama, Polarion).
- Proficiency in modeling and simulation tools such as Matlab/Simulink, Ansys, CREO, Cameo System Modeler, or similar.
- Solid understanding of regulated product development (e.g., IEC 60601, ISO 13485, FDA, or equivalent standards).
- Demonstrated ability to think abstractly, analyze complex systems, and generate creative, practical solutions.
- Strong quality mindset—driven by excellence, not compromise.
- Excellent communication, influencing, and collaboration skills in English; effective with engineers, managers, and external stakeholders.
- Motivational leader—able to inspire teams and drive alignment across disciplines.
Preferred Attributes
- Certified Design for Six Sigma (DfSS) Green Belt or higher, with applied project experience.
- Familiarity with Agile or hybrid development frameworks in system contexts.
- Experience with PLM systems and configuration management.
- Knowledge of safety‑critical systems, human factors, or usability engineering.
- Proven success in consulting, interim, or project‑based engineering roles.
- Ability to mentor junior engineers and strengthen systems engineering capabilities.
