Vacancy: System Engineer/Technical Expert (Fluid Dynamics) – Pioneering Smart Glass Technology

Are you a passionate System Engineer with a strong background in fluid dynamics, eager to push
the boundaries of innovation?

As a System Engineer you will play a key role in eLstar’s new product development. You will define
critical design requirements of the overall system architecture, based on data derived from
experiments you perform. You have strong knowledge of fluid dynamics and/or electrophoresis, can
quickly identify roadblocks and act, and are able of quickly grasping the essence of complex issues
and translating them into concrete, practical input for decision-making. You clearly communicate
technical aspects internally and externally in a concise and effective manner, and you safeguard the
technical scope of the project.

Your Role
✔️ System design: Deliver design requirements for crucial components of the revolutionary eLstar
Dynamics smart glass applications, based on solid (experimental) data, while ensuring alignment and
support across the organization.
✔️ Knowledge: Apply in-depth technological knowledge of fluid dynamics and/or electrophoresis.
✔️ Executing experiments: Perform experiments to support and validate design requirements.
✔️ Product mindset: Maintain a strong focus on the product and its requirements, with a clear
understanding of what it takes to develop and manufacture a successful product.
✔️ Structured Way of Working: Apply proven, structured methodologies for design of experiments,
(concept) design, and validation.
✔️ Trade-off Aware: Demonstrate clear awareness of budget constraints, timelines, functionality,
and manufacturability, and effectively balance conflicting requirements.

What You Bring
✅ At least 5 years as a System Engineer in a high-tech company working on complex systems with a
solid understanding of system engineering principles.
✅ A strong experimental mindset and structured way of working.
✅ A Master’s degree or PhD in Physics.
✅ Deep understanding of fundamental physics processes, especially fluid and/or particle dynamics
and interactions.
✅ Strong experience in physics modelling.
✅ Fluency in English (Dutch is a plus).

Who You Are

  • Strong analytical mindset, with excellent organizational and problem-solving skills.
  • Result oriented and practical: you perform experiments to generate the right data to enable sound
    technical decision-making.
  • Able to communicate complex information clearly and in a down-to-basics manner.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to interface effectively with both technical and non-
    technical stakeholders.
  • Highly responsible, with a strong sense of ownership and accountability.
  • A self-starter with a hands-on mentality.
  • Willingness and availability to travel.
