OT Engineer

Our Position

OT Engineer — bridging the gap between IT and the shop floor

The fields of Engineering and IT are becoming increasingly complementary to one another — especially within industry, where processes are continuously being improved. This has given rise to a new discipline: Operational Technology.

You make sure our factory automation doesn't just run — it's built to last. As an OT Engineer, you are the technical backbone of our production environment: from industrial networks to cybersecurity, from SCADA to MES integration.

Your role - What will you be doing?

• You are responsible for the effectiveness, improvement, and continuity of our automated business processes, as well as the long-term vision between IT and the shop floor.
• Perform troubleshooting and analysis for complex failures in hardware and software (client/server, hosting, network, data communication, MES).
• Serve as the central point of contact — both internally and externally — for OT-related matters and advise stakeholders accordingly.
• Apply lifecycle management to OT assets and oversee software change management (change control).
• Contribute to the execution of our procedures within the OT environment.
• Optimize our cybersecurity posture — an increasingly critical component of the OT domain.
• Stay up to date with new technological developments and translate these into practical applications within our organization.

Your Profile

What we are looking for:

• You have a genuine passion for OT.
• Proven experience in OT cybersecurity within industrial environments, including knowledge of OT protocols (such as OPC UA, PROFINET, MQTT) and frameworks such as IEC 62443.
• Understanding of EU cybersecurity regulations, particularly the NIS2 directive.
• Strong OT knowledge: network systems (Profinet/Profibus, hosting, firewall configuration, network segmentation), system hardening, factory automation, and cybersecurity.
• Knowledge of server and PC systems (VMware, Microsoft Windows) and industrial networks.
• Knowledge of SCADA and familiarity with processes within an industrial environment.
• You are customer-focused, results-driven, analytical, and precise — with a strong awareness of safety and quality.
