Electrical architect

As a Electrical Architect at our client in Nijmegen, you will define and evolve the

electrical and system architecture of advanced semiconductor equipment used in high-volume

manufacturing and R&D environments. Your primary focus (80–90%) is electrical system architecture, with a strong emphasis on high-power and analog electronics. You will translate customer and product requirements into scalable, reliable system designs and act as the technical authority throughout the complete development lifecycle—from concept and architecture to validation and verification.

You will provide technical leadership to a multidisciplinary engineering team, guiding electrical,

software and firmware engineers to ensure successful system integration. In addition, you will

collaborate closely with customers, suppliers and development partners to deliver innovative,

future-proof test solutions.
