We're recruiting a Senior Field Service Technician for an established smart energy technology company. This is a hands-on role combining complex troubleshooting, customer contact and team mentoring, with the independence to take ownership of your work.

• Perform measurements, testing and commissioning support on LV/HV installations in accordance with NEN 3140/3840.
• Produce clear service reports and help meet contractual uptime and response targets.
• Feed practical insights back to engineering and product teams to improve equipment and service.
• Guide and mentor colleagues, sharing your technical knowledge and safe working practices.
• Participate in on-call duties and shift work when required.

What you bring

You're an experienced electrical specialist who enjoys solving problems, takes safety seriously and communicates confidently with customers and colleagues.

• MBO-4 or HBO qualification in Electrical Engineering or Industrial Automation.
• At least seven years of relevant field service experience, including supervisory experience in a B2B environment.
• Strong knowledge of LV/HV installations and power electronics.
• NEN 3140/3840 certification, VCA VOL and IV/WV authorizations-or willingness to obtain the authorizations promptly.
• Strong Dutch and English communication skills.
• A category B driving license and flexibility for frequent travel, on-call duties and occasional evening or weekend work.

Experience with Siemens PLCs and embedded software is an advantage, as is BHV certification.

What's on offer

An independent, varied position with room for your ideas, continued technical development and the opportunity to help colleagues grow.

• Competitive salary in line with the Metalektro CAO.
• 27 holiday days plus 13 ADV days, with the option to sell up to 10 days.
• PME pension, with the employer contributing more than half of the premium.
• Company laptop and unlimited access to an online learning platform.
• Travel allowance of €0.25 per kilometer, up to 50 km each way.
