Assembly Technician

Build high-tech machines and precision modules for leading Dutch companies. As an Assembly Technician, you work from technical drawings and detailed instructions to assemble, test, and inspect complete systems in clean or cleanroom environments.

About
the role

What are we looking for

High-tech machines are still built by hand, part by part, to tolerances measured in microns. As an Assembly Technician, you build modules and complete systems at one of our client companies in the Dutch high-tech and machine-building industry, often in a clean or cleanroom environment. Precision, patience, and pride in your work matter more than the number of years on your CV.

In this role, you build machines and modules from individual components into fully functioning systems. You work from technical drawings, Bills of Materials, and detailed work instructions while continuously checking the quality of your own work. Depending on the client, you may focus on sub-assemblies, complete machine assembly, or both.

  • Assemble modules and complete systems.
  • Carry out sub-assembly and final assembly.
  • Fit, align, and adjust precision components.
  • Perform tests and quality checks.
  • Follow cleanroom procedures.
  • Report deviations and suggest improvements.

What are we
looking for

We are looking for technicians with steady hands, an eye for detail, and the mindset to do a job properly the first time. Experience in assembly, cleanroom environments, or fine mechanics is a plus, but not essential. Accuracy and a structured way of working matter most.

  • EQF level 3 or 4 technical education.
  • Able to read technical drawings.
  • Accurate and patient.
  • Comfortable with tight tolerances.
  • Good command of English.
  • Willing to work in the Netherlands.
  • Flexible for shift work.
  • Work at leading Dutch high-tech companies.
  • Opportunities to grow and specialise.
  • Travel allowance.
  • Tools and protective equipment.
  • A direct contract with Motus.
  • Long-term career perspective.
  • 8% holiday allowance.
  • Pension scheme and holiday entitlement.
  • Paid training and certifications.
  • Optional Dutch language lessons.
  • A dedicated personal consultant.
  • Full relocation support for international candidates, including housing, municipal registration, BSN, taxes, insurance, banking, and support with the 30% ruling where applicable.

Work never stands still, and neither do the people behind it. Careers move. Companies grow. Technology keeps evolving and demands constant progress. But progress does not happen by itself. It happens when the right people are in the right place, with people who are willing to move and organisations ready to grow.

Motus connects technical professionals and organisations in an honest, involved, and results-driven way. We stand beside people and companies as a partner, from the first conversation and careful listening to getting things done and achieving real results.

For people who are ready to take the next step, and for companies building their future with the right talent.

Motus. Moving you forward.
