Open position

‍

(Junior) Technician / Operator - Shopfloor + Warehouse

Part-time or Full-time / 20-40 hours a week / Flexible working hours

‍

At Vertico, we develop advanced robotic additive manufacturing solutions for concrete printing that push the boundaries of large-scale 3D printing. We combine robotics, motion control, software engineering and industrial automation to create technologies used by innovators in architecture, infrastructure and construction worldwide.

‍

We are looking for a (Junior) Technician / Operator with a sharp practical eye and a strong work ethic — someone who thrives on the shop floor and takes pride in mastering the

operation and maintenance of advanced machinery.

‍

Your role

‍

You will play a key role in operating and maintaining our robotic 3D concrete printing system. By handling machine setup and preparation, staying on top of daily maintenance, troubleshooting minor issues and keeping the shop floor organised, you will help ensure that our equipment operates smoothly, reliably and efficiently.

‍

The work is varied: you will not be printing every day. Operating the system alternates with maintenance, assembly, testing, logistics and improving the workshop. You enjoy practical, hands-on challenges and are motivated by maintaining an optimised, high-precision environment where advanced automation meets real-world execution.

‍

Responsibilities

• Operate our industry-leading 3D concrete printing system, including an industrial robot, pumping hardware and digital interface.
• Assist with testing new robotic fabrication tools and experimental equipment.
• Perform regular maintenance, inspections and repairs to keep the printer and shop tools fully operational.
• Receive shipments, track shop inventory, load materials and package finished products for transport.
• Help assemble mechanical and electrical components to build a strong understanding of how our systems function.
• Provide performance feedback to designers and engineers to support future equipment development.
‍

What we’re looking for

‍

• We welcome applicants with a wide range of backgrounds and skill levels.
  
  • You do not need to know everything from day one. We will teach you how our equipment works and what is expected in the role.
  • A technical diploma or practical experience in machine building, manufacturing, construction, mechatronics, mechanical engineering or electrical engineering is useful, but not a strict requirement.
• Experience with hand and power tools, technical drawings or mechanical and electrical troubleshooting is an advantage. A willingness to learn is more important.
• Good communication skills in Dutch or English. Functional English is required to use machine software and technical manuals comfortably.
• Most importantly, you bring a strong work ethic: you take initiative, follow through on commitments, are eager to learn and enjoy figuring out how automated equipment works.
• A reliable, punctual team player who enjoys hands-on shop-floor work and is ready to work with us on site in Eindhoven.

‍

What we offer

‍

• Varied work: printing is only one part of the job, alongside maintenance, assembly, testing, logistics and workshop improvement.
• Hands-on experience with cutting-edge 3D concrete printing and industrial robotic systems.
• Practical training and guidance so you can learn our systems, develop your skills and grow into the role.
• A place in a successful startup that is growing and where your contribution has a visible impact.
• Flexible options to work full-time or part-time, with predictable daytime working hours agreed together.
• A friendly, international team and projects for world-class innovators, with optional opportunities to travel abroad for system installations.

• Help create and optimize HMI interfaces focused on usability, clarity, and operator experience.
• Integrate software, robotics, sensors, drives, and peripheral systems into cohesive machine platforms.
• Develop supporting tools and automation workflows using Python.
• Support commissioning, testing, debugging, and performance optimization of systems both remotely and on-site.
• Implement remote connectivity, diagnostics, software deployment, and update strategies.
• Collaborate closely with mechanical, robotics, and process engineering teams to create innovative manufacturing solutions.
• Contribute to architectural decisions and continuously improve software quality, modularity, and maintainability.
‍

What we’re looking for

‍

• Medior or Senior-level experience in mechatronics, industrial automation or control engineering.
• Strong experience with PLC/IPC programming and control software development within the Beckhoff TwinCAT environment or similar.
• Potential experience with EtherCAT, OPC-UA or kinematics.
• Experience designing industrial HMI applications.
• Solid software development skills, including proficiency in Python.
• Good IT knowledge, including:
  
  • VPNs and secure remote connectivity
  • Remote diagnostics and troubleshooting
  • System updates and deployment
  • Machine commissioning and support
• Strong analytical mindset with a hands-on engineering mentality.
• Ability to work independently while contributing to a collaborative multidisciplinary team.
• Curiosity, creativity, and a drive to innovate.
