The posting

"At NTS, we make it possible together. Technology inspires and drives us; it is our passion. Every day, we work on unique solutions for complex challenges. Whether it's ultra-complex or ultra-precise solutions, we are proud of what we do and what we deliver."

Do you want to discover together what is possible? Do you immediately see where manufacturability will be challenging on a drawing, and do you get energy from solving that together with the customer and the shop floor? Do you want to take new products from the first prototype to stable series production and make a difference yourself? Then start as a Manufacturing Engineer at NTS Drachten and let's make it possible together!

Job description

As a Manufacturing Engineer within the engineering team of NTS Drachten, you are the link between customer demand, engineering, and the shop floor. You design, analyze, and optimize our production processes and production tools, ensuring that what is designed on paper is actually manufacturable, repeatable, and affordable.

At NTS Drachten, we manufacture high-precision parts for customers in the semiconductor, analytical, medical, and high-tech industries. We work with small and medium series, challenging tolerances, and complex materials that are not always easy to control. This means that each new product is a puzzle again: what machining sequence, what clamping, what measuring method, and where is the risk?

Introducing new products (NPI) is an important part of your work. You assess drawings for manufacturability, advise engineering and customers on adjustments that make the product better or cheaper, and document the process including test methodology and PFMEA. After that, you remain involved during the scale-up to volume production.

You work in a compact organization where the lines are short. Operators, work preparation, quality, and engineering are close to each other, so an improvement you come up with can be on the shop floor next week. Your proposals for new machines, processes, tooling, and measuring instruments carry significant weight in investment decisions.

Furthermore, your tasks include:

  • Translating customer requirements into efficient and manufacturable production solutions;
  • Assessing drawings for manufacturability and advising engineering and customers;
  • Developing and validating production processes, including test methodologies and PFMEAs;
  • Identifying production bottlenecks and proposing concrete improvements;
  • Designing and implementing new or improved processes and measuring instruments;
  • Advising on the purchase of machines, tooling, and measuring instruments;
  • Supporting production with prototypes and in scaling up to volume production.

Requirements

We are looking for an analytical and practically oriented engineer who feels equally at home on the shop floor as at the conference table, with the following background:

  • A completed HBO education in a technical field, such as Mechanical Engineering or Technical Business Administration, or a comparable level of education and thinking;
  • At least 5 years of experience in a technical production environment, preferably in machining or precision mechanical production;
  • Knowledge of manufacturing processes and quality assurance, and demonstrable experience with PFMEA;
  • Result-oriented and proactive in identifying and seizing improvement opportunities, even if persuasion is required;
  • Good command of the Dutch and English language in speech and writing, due to drawings, work instructions, and communication with colleagues and customers.

Your benefits

At NTS, we combine our passion for technology with innovative solutions for complex challenges. You will have the freedom and trust to fully utilize and develop your talents in a dynamic and energetic environment. We invest in both technology and you as a future colleague!

With this challenge, we offer the following benefits:

  • Salary ranging from €4,700 to €6,000 gross per month, depending on experience and qualifications;
  • Over 40 days off: 27 vacation days and 13 ADV days with a full-time position;
  • Personal development and growth opportunities, for example through training and education;
  • Yearly budget of €150 gross, freely spendable, for vitality, bike plan, or gym via the Alleo app;
  • Travel allowance of €0.21 per kilometer (minimum 10 and maximum 50 km one way) or full reimbursement of public transport costs;
  • Excellent pension scheme via PME;
  • Laptop;
  • Free fresh fruit at work.

About NTS

We provide unique solutions for complex challenges and drive the technological progress of our customers. By combining development, production, and assembly, we play an integral role in bringing together the supply chain. We combine the best skills and smartest ideas into a working system for the most advanced Semiconductor, Opto-Mechatronic, and Analytical solutions in the world. That is why we have grown into a Tier-1 supplier for OEMs and an international player operating from various locations in Europe, Asia, and the US.

Although we offer our teams a great workplace all over the world, we do not forget to remain firmly rooted locally. Ultimately, the core of NTS is formed by our people. Their excellent manufacturing skills, customer-oriented mentality, and clear technical solutions have made NTS what it is today. Together, we create a culture that everyone can be proud of because we make it possible together. That is why we seize every opportunity to celebrate our people, our craftsmanship, and our successes.
