The role

  • You see immediately what your work achieves on the production floor.
  • You work on various projects for the overhaul of train components.
  • You are given the space to initiate and implement improvements yourself.

What you'll do

Within Revisie Loopwerken, you prepare new overhaul projects technically and procedurally. You prepare new projects and improve the way the work is done.

You translate technical requirements into clear working methods. You create work instructions and keep them up to date. In doing so, you ensure that colleagues can work safely, ergonomically, and efficiently.

You use figures and information from the shop floor to investigate how the work can be improved. For example, you look at the time the work takes, quality, costs, and safety.

  • Preparing projects for overhaul cycles of bogies and wheelsets.
  • Improving overhaul processes, where quality, safety, lead time, and costs are in balance.
  • Optimizing the use of the new production hall and the automated machine park.
  • Recognizing problems and delays in the work.
  • Devising and implementing improvements.
  • Creating and improving work instructions.
  • Helping colleagues in production with technical and practical questions.

You work closely with colleagues from Engineering and Production. When there is a new working method, you test it together with colleagues on the shop floor. This is how you discover what works well and what can be even better. Afterwards, you help to further improve the working method and implement it. Experienced engineers will assist you and share their knowledge with you.

Apply directly (but certainly before Friday, November 13th) via the application button. Within a few minutes, you will receive an automatic application confirmation; we will respond to your application within 2 weeks.

In their own words

About the company & team

You work at RLW Engineering, part of Revisie Loopwerken in Haarlem. Together with 12 colleagues, you prepare the major maintenance of bogies and wheelsets. We do this on a project basis: engineers carry out technical investigations and determine which maintenance is required. As a Production Engineer, you translate this into a production process in which the activities can be carried out well and efficiently.

You are close to daily practice. Approximately 800 bogies and 2,600 wheelsets are maintained at our location annually. With your work, you help ensure that these components are available on time and trains can continue to run.

You work in Haarlem every day. Because of this, the lines are short and you know your colleagues well. You work closely with Engineering and Production. Together you form one team and ensure that the maintenance proceeds smoothly.

At NS, we find diversity and inclusion important; it makes working together more fun and the result becomes even better. What your background or beliefs are does not matter: we are primarily curious about who you are and what you personally bring to the department.

Additional information

  • A background check, including a VOG (Certificate of Conduct), is part of the application procedure. Please also consider the signing of an integrity statement and a non-disclosure agreement.
  • We find it important that everyone who works with us feels at home. You can see this in everything we do, and therefore also in our recruitment policy. Read more here.
