高级工艺工程师 - 粉末冶金

The role

We are expanding our industrialization capabilities and are looking for a Senior Process Engineer with experience in powder metallurgy technologies to join our Factory Engineering team in Amsterdam. Operating as a technical focal point at the intersection of process design, equipment procurement and high-volume production scaling, you will play a pivotal role in translating complex product requirements into stable, efficient and safe manufacturing solutions.

Focused on powder metallurgy technologies such as powder mixing and sintering, you will take full technical ownership of a set of core manufacturing process steps, bridging the gap between R&D and mass production. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional stakeholders and international equipment suppliers to define process parameters, establish engineering methodologies and lead vendor fulfillment through installation and commissioning. As a senior member of the team, you will lead by example, mentoring junior engineers and driving a culture of best practices.

This is a hands-on, execution-heavy role in a fast-paced, early factory design environment that requires a structured problem solver comfortable navigating ambiguity.
