As a High Voltage Secondary Engineer you are substantively involved in several projects. You are part of highly experienced integrated project teams with whom you have regular consultations. In addition, you translate customer requirements and wishes into project-specific design requirements together with the Senior Lead Engineer. You manage secondary and/or tertiary design teams for the purpose of sizing installations, performing the necessary calculations and creating designs. You manage quality control, identify technical bottlenecks and initiate technical improvements. You have an active, positively involved role in reviewing and assessing the (final) presentations of the designs drawn up by team members. You communicate with clients to explain designs and clarify specifications. You have contact with subcontractors and suppliers at home and abroad. You are one of the knowledge carriers within the Energy Team in the field of engineering of Secondary and/or Tertiary engineering of high voltage and medium voltage installations.

In the upcoming years, significant investments are being made in both existing and new infrastructure where telecommunications will play a pivotal role. As an engineer, you will be closely involved in these innovations in the Netherlands as well as in international projects

As a Telecom Engineer, you will be part of a design team where you contribute your technical expertise in the field of telecommunications. Within integrated projects, you will be responsible for telecom technical designs. Examples include: electrical acoustics, high-frequency telecommunications, control/operation/data systems, or transmission. The projects you will work on span areas such as Rail, Roads, Tunnels/Bridges, Smart Cities, and Buildings.

As a Telecom Engineer, you will be the primary point of contact for the project manager, ensuring the development and coordination of your technical discipline, telecom. You will ensure quality, maintain knowledge levels, and stay updated on market developments in the field of telecommunications. You will serve as the expert and content contact person for the customer and stakeholders on behalf of Arcadis.
You will create designs for systems including visual and auditory travel information, social monitoring, and data transmission, as well as their structures, such as:

• Visual (travel) information using displays, light panels, and matrix boards.
• Auditory (travel) information, including evacuation and announcement systems, including speech intelligibility simulation.
• Social monitoring, such as access control using cameras.
• Data transmission, including data protocols, inside and outside buildings:
• Wired, such as fiber-optic and copper networks.
• Wireless, such as Wi-Fi and 5G.

Recognizing that no single educational program covers all these aspects, you will be guided and trained in your tasks by our professional colleagues. This will allow you to develop into an all-around team member who finds pleasure in their work. This will involve not only technical tasks at your desk but also conducting inspections and providing on-site customer advice.
We work with various clients in the Netherlands (Rijkswaterstaat, ProRail, regional road, tram, and metro managers), as well as foreign rail managers. We have strong connections with clients and colleagues from England, Australia, and Belgium. In addition to designing for rail and road managers, we also assist contractors in refining preliminary designs. In this context, you will bring in your telecom expertise.
Furthermore, we are constantly improving our design process. We are increasingly utilizing BIM (Building Information Modeling) and System Engineering and aim to further integrate these into our design process. This way, we can grow as a team, an organization, and as individuals within this team. We prioritize people and consistently seek ways to ensure team members enjoy their work on projects. This approach leads to content colleagues and satisfied clients.

As an electrician, no day is the same. You can see your scheduled tasks on your own tablet. You leave from home in your own company van to the location in your work area. One day, you might be resolving a malfunction with an apprentice at a customer's place, or you might be out to repair a cable damaged by excavation. On another day, you might oversee an installation project from start to finish, such as replacing an old medium-voltage space with a new one. As an experienced technician, you are also involved in our low and medium voltage networks.
In summary, your tasks involve installing, maintaining, and troubleshooting issues in low and medium voltage networks and transformer stations.
