The position

YER Tech Solutions (TS) is looking for an entrepreneurial Systems Engineer who wants to be at the forefront of something new. You will play a key role in shaping the way we define and deliver engineering solutions for our customers. By translating customer challenges into clear system requirements and architectures, you will help ensure our projects are delivered successfully from concept through implementation.

You won't inherit a mature organisation with fixed processes and legacy structures. Instead, you'll help create the foundation of a growing engineering business with ambitious plans in the Netherlands and beyond

If you've ever wanted to combine systems engineering, customer interaction and multidisciplinary engineering in an entrepreneurial environment, this is your opportunity.

Your role

As Systems Engineer, you will bridge customer requirements, engineering disciplines and project delivery.

You are responsible for translating customer needs into clear system requirements, architectures and interfaces. You ensure that mechanical, electrical and software elements work together as one integrated solution and that projects remain aligned with customer expectations throughout the development process.

While Mechanical Engineers focus on designing and realising the physical solution, you focus on defining what the system must do, how the different subsystems interact and how compliance with requirements is demonstrated.

You will work closely with the Lead Engineer, Delivery Manager and multidisciplinary engineering teams to support successful project execution.

Your responsibilities

  • Participate in customer and project discussions from a systems engineering perspective
  • Translate customer challenges into system design requirements and measurable project outcomes and describe these in a Statement of Work
  • Define and maintain system architectures, requirements and interface definitions
  • Support trade-off analyses and engineering decision-making
  • Ensure requirements traceability throughout the project lifecycle with e.g. IBM Doors
  • Coordinate technical alignment between mechanical, electrical and software disciplines
  • Lead integration, verification and validation activities
  • Identify and communicate system-level risks, assumptions and dependencies
  • Contribute to knowledge topics such as engineering methodologies, templates and best practices
  • Work closely with the Lead Engineer and project teams to successfully deliver customer projects
