You are thorough and you take great pride in a job well done. You have the experience to drive automation projects independently and like to be part of a small, tightly knit team with an informal tone and a flat hierarchy where everybody feels valued and comfortable speaking up.
You enjoy the process of understanding new technology, new manufacturing processes and new clients, and you are secure enough in your abilities to both ask for and share feedback, help and advice when necessary.

Practical questions
Is the position full time or part time?
The position is full-time by default, but we are open to a dialogue about the need to work part time. We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all solution, but in finding the balance that works for you.
Can I work remotely?
The position is hybrid with varying degrees of working from home: At the start of each project, you will work closely with the client at their premises to understand their manufacturing process and requirements and build the foundation for your collaboration with key stakeholders.
Once the project is under way, remote work is possible two to three days per week when preparing software and simulations. When testing machinery, you need to be on site.
Where will I be working?
Our clients are located on Zealand, Denmark, most of them in or near the capital region. When you are not on site at the client’s premises, you have the possibility to work from our office in Måløv or you can work from home
The job entails some international travel, mainly within the EU. How much depends in part on the nature of each project and in part on your personal preference, but expect roughly 10-20 days of travel per year.
When and how to apply
We hire on an ongoing basis so send your resumé to info@engineerit.dk as soon as possible.
