Production Test System Design Engineer

Develop advanced test systems for innovative energy products at Victron Energy. Work with NI Test Stand, LabVIEW, and power electronics in a hands‑on role with freedom, ownership, and impact.

Who are we?
Victron Energy is a family company founded in 1975 by Reinout Vader. Victron designs and sells inverters, chargers, and more related power conversion products. We are a technology‑focused and sales‑driven company; to stay leading, we rely on a strong R&D team. Most products contain software, and lately, more and more of our unique features are in software. The company structure is flat.

This position will be on location in Groningen.

What are you going to do?
You develop test systems (used for the production line) so that Victron Energy products can be extensively tested after they have been produced. You design and create these test systems in Groningen together with your colleagues. Various techniques come together, but the core techniques are electrical engineering and information technology. For testing, you use an advanced test data system. The products must be tested at the assembly plants to meet our high‑quality standards.

You communicate with the R&D and Supplier Development Managers within Victron Energy. Your input on the development of test methods would be highly appreciated. The team consists of 4 people with the same passion: creating the best product for a satisfied customer. You work on various projects simultaneously, so the ability to prioritise is vital.
