  For our design support team located in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, we are looking for a highly motivated design engineer who can support NPI (New Product Introductions) and customer complaints with his or her design knowledge. As design support engineer you will be responsible for the development of bench set-up solutions (HW / SW) that enable characterization of products during NPI or customer complaint handling. Furthermore you will drive the technical analyses of complex customer complaint cases.

The specific job role will include

• Develop HW and SW for bench evaluation set-ups that enable NPI product characterization and customer complaint investigations.
• Coaching and training on product design and bench evaluation set-ups will also be part of the functions
• Interface between NPI R&D teams and complaint handling teams in Asia
• Support complex customer complaint handling by bringing in your product design knowledge. Build network over other design teams and involve them to extend the knowledge to come to the rootcause.
