    Job Description


    Company Overview:


    We design, develop and manufacture case packers and tray packing solutions for flexible and tough-to-handle packages such as doypacks, pillow bags, and four-sided sealed bags.

    Built for around-the-clock operation, these solutions have a worldwide reputation for their quick change-over, flexibility, speed, and comprehensive design. Our Integrated state-of-the-art technologies include gravity, pick and place, wrap-around, and vision-guided robotics.
    At BPA, we are absolutely passionate about innovation. It adds the fun and inspiration to our work that people need to excel.

    Our customers stimulate innovation by developing new needs, and we are on a never-ending quest to find a better, simpler way.

    BPA has no innovation budget; innovation is what we are.

    Position:
    We are seeking a Research and Development Engineer. The R&D Engineer is at the forefront of our design process.

    What will you do as an R&D Engineer?


    As a Mechanical R&D Engineer, you will be responsible for the development of new systems and the improvement of existing systems.

    In this position, you will be faced with complex challenges, and you will be given the freedom to get involved in designing the best solution.

    You will also make a feasibility analysis with regard to speeds and forces and test setups for endurance tests. You'll use Solidworks to develop new machines and modules.

    Your focus will be on safety, and you'll create cost-effective, user-friendly, and maintenance-friendly designs in which your research and creativity are reflected.

    To best serve our customers in Europe and North America, Blueprint Automation has two main locations. Woerden, The Netherlands, and South Chesterfield, Virginia in the United States. Both locations engineer and manufacture highly customizable automation solutions to suit their market's needs. Although we are separate companies, we partner closely with each other to share knowledge and strategize.

    This R&D Engineer position will bridge the gap between the R&D department in Holland, and the Engineering department in the US.

    Travel between locations will amount to a few times each year. You'll spend roughly 65% of your time in The Netherlands, and 35% of your time in the United States. However, we believe in the importance of being flexible so your location and travel preferences will be considered.

    Each location not only engineers and designs its own machines, but they are also fabricated, assembled, and programmed onsite, so you'll always be in contact with the end product.


    Education/ Experience & Qualifications:
    Bachelor of Science degree or equivalent
    You have 5-10 years of experience in product development as a Mechanical Engineer
    3D experience (for example with Solidworks and EPDM)


    Preferred Qualifications:
    Excellent communication skills and you know how to make connections between people and different cultures:

    You enjoy working internationally and are willing to work 4-6 times a year for a longer period (varying from 2 weeks to 2 months) at our American and Dutch offices.

    Sense of cost-effectiveness, hygienic, user-friendly, safe, and installation-friendly designs
    You are a team player
    Knowledge of modern production methods
    Excellent command of both Dutch and English languages is preferred
