Industrial Automation

Would you like the freedom to work on long-term industrial automation projects without being tied to one site?

Would you like to apply your PCS7 expertise to technically challenging environments across multiple industries?

Would you like to collaborate with experienced engineers while maintaining your independence as a freelancer?

The client is currently scaling up several automation platforms across both brownfield and greenfield locations. They’re in the transition phase of consolidating fragmented legacy systems into standardized PCS7 environments. The biggest challenge? Balancing urgent system support while driving structured upgrades in live production settings.

I’m looking for someone who:

* Has a completed MBO+ or HBO in Industrial Automation, Electrical Engineering, or similar

* Brings 2-5 years of hands-on Siemens PCS7 experience

* Has additional experience with S7, TIA Portal, and WinCC

* Understands electrical schematics and industrial control systems

* Is VCA VOL certified and fluent in Dutch and/or English

* Lives in Brabant or Midden-Nederland and can work on-site

* Is self-motivated, communicative, and accurate

Who is interested in:

* Programming, modifying, and optimizing PCS7 control systems

* On-site service, testing, commissioning, and troubleshooting

* Working on maintenance and project-based assignments

* Delivering technical documentation and escalation reporting

* Collaborating closely with internal engineers and client-side teams

For a company who:

* Offers continuous freelance projects across multiple industrial sectors

* Pays market-competitive hourly rates (€80-€90 based on experience)

* Guarantees timely payment and clearly defined agreements

* Supports freelancers with strong engineering teams and documentation access

* Encourages long-term partnerships for reliable experts

We know we ask a lot but encourage you to apply even if you fit 80% to the role.
