Mechanical Engineer

Are you an engineer who wants to develop further in machine building? At Romonta BV in Katwijk you work on custom solutions for the food processing industry. Whether you have just graduated or already have a few years of experience, you get room to grow here and find your place in a team of experienced engineers.

Your role at Romonta

As a Mechanical Engineer you design stainless steel conveyor belts, platforms and bulk handling systems for the food processing industry. Depending on your experience, you start out under the guidance of our seniors or take on (parts of) projects independently from the outset.

You translate customer requests into 3D designs in Inventor, take manufacturability and safety into account, and make sure your designs work not only on paper but also in practice. You liaise with production, assembly and fellow engineers to arrive at the best solution.

Romonta has a lot of seniority on the shop floor. You learn from engineers with years of experience in stainless steel structures, hygienic design and CE standards. As you grow, you take on more responsibility and can move on to more complex projects, specialist directions or a senior role.

Your main responsibilities

  • You design machines and machine parts in Inventor, from individual components to complete systems;
  • You work out customer requests into technical drawings, taking stainless steel processing, safety and hygiene requirements into account;
  • You liaise with production and assembly to make sure designs are practical to build and cost-efficient;
  • Where needed, you carry out basic strength calculations and select suitable materials and components;
  • You work with fellow engineers on projects and learn from their experience and expertise.

Who you are

You are an engineer who understands technical details and also knows what is feasible in practice. Whether you have just graduated or already have a few years of experience, you want to develop in machine building and are eager to learn. You enjoy technical challenges and look beyond standard solutions.

  • Vocational or bachelor’s level in a technical field such as Mechanical Engineering or a comparable programme;
  • You have basic knowledge of 3D CAD software such as Inventor, SolidWorks or Creo. Experience is welcome, but eagerness to learn matters more;
  • You can read and understand technical drawings, or are willing to learn quickly. Knowledge of bills of materials and specifications is a plus;
  • You are interested in stainless steel machine building and the food processing industry. Previous experience in machine building or an internship is a plus, but not required;
  • You work easily with fellow engineers, production and other departments;
  • You are hands-on, want to learn and are not afraid to ask questions. In a team of experienced engineers, curiosity and openness to feedback take you furthest.

What we offer

  • A monthly salary between €2,500 and €4,000 (excluding 8% holiday allowance) based on 38 hours per week, depending on your education and experience;
  • A highly experienced team where you learn fast and can grow into a senior engineer or a specialist direction;
  • A one-year contract with the prospect of a permanent position;
  • Room for personal development through courses, training and daily guidance from experienced colleagues;
  • 200 holiday hours based on a 38-hour working week under the Collective Labour Agreement for Metal and Engineering;
  • 8% holiday allowance and pension accrual;
  • Travel allowance depending on your commuting distance;
  • Big discounts on leading brands through our ‘benefitsatwork’ platform.

How to apply

Email your contact details to emiel.beek@romonta.nl. If you can attach your CV straight away, that is a plus. I will contact you within one working day to discuss the options and, if there is a match, to schedule a meeting.

You are welcome, even if you are not yet sure you are a perfect fit. We will explore it together.
