Je houdt ervan om problemen uit te pluizen, oplossingen te zoeken en dingen beter te maken. Maar je wil vooral méér kunnen betekenen dan alleen je technische kennis inzetten.\n\nHerkenbaar? Dan hebben we bij EMDS misschien wel een mooie uitdaging voor jou!\n\nEen nieuwe functie, jouw kans om ze mee vorm te geven.\n\nBij EMDS bouwen, onderhouden en moderniseren we industriële installaties en betoncentrales. We zijn een klein, hecht team met grote plannen. En omdat automatisering een steeds belangrijkere rol speelt in onze toekomst, zoeken we iemand die hierin mee het verschil wil maken.\n\nWat betekent dat concreet?\nAls Automation (& Controls) Engineer word jij ons aanspreekpunt voor de automatische besturing van onze betoncentrales.\n\n Je helpt klanten bij technische vragen en storingen en zoekt, vaak vanop afstand, mee naar oplossingen.\n\n Je vormt de brug tussen onze klanten, collega's en gespecialiseerde PLC-programmeurs in Portugal.\n\n Je denkt mee over automatisering bij nieuwe projecten en begeleidt de technische voorbereiding en opstart.\n\n Je houdt overzicht over software, documentatie, onderhoud en verbeteringen aan bestaande installaties.\n\n Af en toe trek je naar een klant of werf in België. Het grootste deel van je werk (90%) gebeurt vanuit kantoor of remote.\n\nEn loopt er buiten de kantooruren iets écht dringend mis? Dan kunnen we ook op jouw ondersteuning rekenen.\n\nJouw profiel\nWie past bij ons?\n\nMisschien heb je al ervaring met Siemens PLC's, HMI of TIA Portal. Misschien sta je nog aan het begin van je carrière en wil je je hierin verdiepen. Allebei kan!\n\nJe hoeft bij ons geen PLC-programmeur te zijn. Wat we veel belangrijker vinden? Dat je technisch inzicht hebt, graag bijleert, helder communiceert en verantwoordelijkheid neemt. Iemand die niet loslaat zodra het moeilijk wordt, maar samen met anderen zoekt naar een oplossing.\n\nJe spreekt vlot Nederlands en kan je ook in het Engels professioneel uitdrukken. Frans is mooi meegenomen.","description_format":"text","description_chars":2098,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-01T06:14:25Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":24,"reasons":["seen:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-02T06:13:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/emds-automation-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/emds-automation-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-02T11:16:19Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":15522,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-03T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4492725},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4492725"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Femds-automation-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Femds-automation-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Femds-automation-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/emds-automation-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Femds-automation-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3583436}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"emds.eu","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3583436},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
