As Senior Mechanical Designer Dynamics your role involves taking on challenging tasks and responsibilities within the System Dynamics Domain.
Sioux Technologies develops and produces state-of-the-art technology for the top end of the international high-tech community. Examples include a complex lithography machine, a compact electron microscope, a smart home automation system or an electric self-charging car. We raise the bar high and we often achieve the impossible. We do so together, as a team of enthusiastic electronics, software, mechanics, mechatronics and mathematics specialists.
What make you enthusiastic as a Senior Mechanical Designer Dynamics
As a Mechanical Designer Dynamics, your role involves taking on challenging tasks and responsibilities.
- You are a sparring partner to the Architect(s), and you take ownership in translating specifications into innovative concepts and design solutions in the System Dynamics domain.
- You play an essential role in the development of new systems where your focus will be on system dynamics within a multidisciplinary context.
- You are able to assess the system specifications at a high level of abstraction using lumped mass models (MATLAB, Simscape, 20-Sim) of the dynamic architecture. In the design phase you use multi-body and finite element modeling to verify and optimize the dynamic system performance. During the integration of the system, you validate the dynamic performance using dynamic testing and resolve, together with your team, whatever unforeseen issues appear.
- What makes you a senior Mechanical Designer Dynamics is that you take ownership of a large scope of work and complex challenges. You will also take the technical lead of a team of engineers and designers in the field of Dynamics.
Your future workplace
Why you want to work here
- You will work within a pleasant working environment, in which High-Tech, High-Fun & High-Value are central.
- Within Sioux, everyone gets a lot of freedom and responsibility to perform their work in the best possible way.
- No matter how experienced you are, you will continue to develop yourself on a personal level and in terms of content. You have a personal training budget of €6000 available for this, every year.
- We love continuous development; people, good ideas and Sioux!
- We also find it incredibly important to have fun together - no joke! We organize a lot for our employees from family festivals to inspiring knowledge sessions.
- You work on the Sioux Campus and can use our Sioux Labs living room every day to have lunch, play sports or music and share your knowledge with colleagues.
Sound good so far? We'd love to tell you more...
Working in high-tech.
At Sioux Technologies, we develop and build complex high-tech products, often at the limit of what is technologically possible. We do this together, within a close-knit team of enthusiastic specialists in electronics, software, mechanics, mechatronics, physics, optics and mathematics. This is how we bring high-tech to life that makes society healthier, safer, smarter, more sustainable and more fun. This could be for a large project at a renowned multinational or for a promising start-up developing the next breakthrough technology.
High Tech, High Fun, High Value
We can tell you all about the typical Sioux-culture and the high-tech challenging projects. About how you can develop yourself, like nowhere else. But we’d rather have you hear it from our own employees, including physicists Elif and Marnix.
