Mechanical Design Engineer – Advanced Machine Systems
Location: Ghent, Belgium
Type: Full-time | Flexi-Working
Join a company at the cutting edge of industrial automation and next-generation production systems. Based in Ghent, we design and build complex, high-performance machinery used across multiple sectors—including sustainable manufacturing, clean tech processing, and smart logistics.
We're on the lookout for a 3D Mechanical Design Engineer who thrives in a fast-paced, creative engineering environment. Whether you're launching your career or bringing decades of experience, we offer the chance to work on fully custom-built machines that are engineered, designed, and assembled entirely in-house.
What You'll Be Doing
You’ll work as part of a skilled and collaborative engineering team, designing machines that push boundaries in speed, precision, and adaptability. Reporting to a Project Engineer, your work will include:
* Creating high-quality 3D mechanical designs for bespoke machine solutions.
* Developing detailed production drawings and mechanical documentation.
* Translating technical requirements into functional, efficient, and durable designs.
* Contributing to design reviews and brainstorming sessions with project and production teams.
Who We're Looking For
* Enthusiasm for mechanical design, innovation, and real-world problem-solving.
* Experience with 3D CAD software (Creo + Model Manager preferred; other platforms welcome).
* Understanding of mechanical systems and machine construction (level can vary by experience).
* Open to all levels—recent graduates to seasoned professionals with 20+ years in the field.
* Fluent in English; a basic grasp of Dutch or willingness to learn is important. Dutch speakers preferred.
* Valid EU work authorisation.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
* Every machine is unique: No copy-paste work—every project presents new challenges and learning opportunities.
* All in-house: Design, engineering, and assembly happen under one roof, meaning fast feedback loops and deep involvement from start to finish.
The Environment
This is an office-based role in Ghent, with occasional flexibility (e.g. for technician visits or personal matters). We value team presence and collaboration, which is reflected in our hands-on and supportive engineering culture.
