Research-Square is partnering with several leading high-tech organisations in the Netherlands. These companies operate at the forefront of innovation, developing advanced systems and precision equipment within complex multidisciplinary environments.

As a Mechanical Design Engineer, you will take ownership of mechanical modules, subsystems, or larger scopes within high-tech systems. You will translate requirements into robust concepts and detailed designs, working closely with architects, system designers, and engineering teams to deliver high-performance solutions.

This role requires a strong combination of technical depth, system understanding, and ownership, with a focus on delivering first-time-right designs that balance performance, manufacturability, and reliability.

We're hiring Mechanical Design Engineers to:

• Translate specifications into well-founded mechanical concepts and detailed designs
• Take ownership of mechanical modules or subsystems within complex systems
• Perform advanced engineering analyses (tolerance analysis, strength, stiffness, FEM)
• Develop and detail 3D models, drawings, and technical documentation
• Make substantiated design decisions considering manufacturability, cost, and performance
• Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams and stakeholders
• Contribute to system integration, testing, and validation
• Identify technical risks and drive effective solutions
• Guide and support junior engineers and designers
• For more senior profiles:
• Lead technical work packages or mechanical design scopes
• Act as a technical sparring partner to system architects
• Contribute to system-level design and architecture decisions
• Take a leading role in mentoring and coaching

We're looking for someone experienced with as much of the following as possible:

• Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field (BSc/MSc/PhD)
• 5+ years (medior) to 10+ years (senior) experience in high-tech or precision engineering
• Experience in industries such as semiconductors, high-tech equipment, aerospace, automotive, medical devices, or robotics
• Proven experience working on complex mechanical or mechatronic systems (not just individual components)
• Strong analytical skills and experience with engineering calculations and FEM
• Proven experience with tolerance analysis and precision design
• Experience working in a multidisciplinary development environment
• Knowledge of precision mechanics and high-accuracy design principles
• Experience with CAD tools and complex 3D design
• Strong knowledge of Design for Excellence (DfX)
• Ability to take ownership and work independently
• Strong communication skills and stakeholder alignment

What we provide

• Full relocation support to help you (and your family) move smoothly to the Netherlands.
• Permanent contract offering long-term stability.
• Housing support to assist in finding suitable accommodation.
• Dutch language course to help you integrate both professionally and socially.
• Regular social events to connect with colleagues and build your network.
• Training budget to support your personal and professional development.
