About the job

Location: Brussels – 3 days onsite, 2 days remote
Sector: Automation & IT
Company: System Integrator – Engineering & Technology

This position covers the full project lifecycle of IT-driven automation solutions, from concept and development to implementation and support. Focus is on delivering robust SCADA systems, alongside server and infrastructure integration, for a varied range of clients in close collaboration with technical teams.

  • Develop and optimize SCADA solutions, with a focus on visualization, user interfaces, and customization (C# or similar languages).
  • Work on server and IT infrastructure to enable and maintain automation platforms and related solutions.
  • Customize existing SCADA platforms—current projects use an Austrian-developed platform, but experience with any leading SCADA systems (such as WinCC, Ignition, Aveva, Beckhoff) is welcomed.
  • Guide customers from requirements mapping and design to system delivery, configuration, and post-implementation aftercare.
  • Collaborate closely with Dutch-speaking clients and internal engineering teams to ensure technical alignment throughout all project phases.
  • Utilize knowledge of relevant protocols (e.g., OPC UA, Modbus, BACnet, Profibus), server systems, and security systems in support of each project’s long-term performance and reliability.


We are looking for candidates who thrive at the crossroads of engineering, IT, and automation.

  • Experience & Background: You have 3 to 5 years of hands-on experience in automation or IT/automation integration. You will receive several months of training.
  • Educational Foundation: You hold a bachelor’s degree in Electromechanics, Automation, IT, or a related field. A master’s degree is considered an asset but not essential—we care more about your proactive mindset and applied technical know-how.

We value driven professionals who integrate security best practices into their automation work and are motivated by the thrill of building robust, future-ready systems. If you enjoy merging automation with IT, and thrive in dynamic project environments, you will feel right at home with us.
