R&D engineer at Sensorfact (Utrecht, Netherlands)

About us:
Sensorfact is an innovative and young company that reduces energy waste in industry.
We provide inexpensive non-invasive wireless energy-harvesting sensors coupled with 4G-enabled bridges. The online tool and analyses give customers more insight in their energy usage and waste.
Both our team and customers have an international focus. In our small company you can make a big impact on sustainability in industry.

Your activities:
You will focus on the data collection from sensors to our platform. We are constantly improving our data collection and adding features. You will find new ways to optimise data quality: e.g. by testing new antennas to improve the network connectivity of our bridges, or experimenting with the location of our sensors. Additionally, you will be the first to work with new sensors to maximise our insight in our customers’ production processes.

You will have the autonomy to do things your way and our respect from day one. No regulations or hierarchy, just a lot of interesting work to be done. You can do experiments in our office, visit our customers and will be in direct communication with our supplier. We expect you to work systematically and make data-driven decisions. Your colleagues can provide you with all energy, software and hardware related support you need.

You love getting to the bottom of new, unexpected problems with our hardware. When you found the root problem, you do your best to avoid issues at other customers. You will report procedural fixes with our operations team and help with the documentation. If a software fix is required, you will work together with the development team.  If you want to look back on your career and know that you were a vital part of building an awesome company, this role is definitely for you.
