Will you be the technical point of contact for our customers throughout the Netherlands?
At ABB, you work with the latest electrical and digital solutions for a reliable, safe, and future-proof power supply. Within our Electrification Service division, you are the specialist who maintains, optimizes, and troubleshoots low‑voltage installations, right where it matters: at our customers’ sites in utility, industry, and transport & infrastructure.
What will you be doing?
As a Field Service Engineer, you’re on the road every day solving technical challenges. No day is the same:
You install, overhaul, and modernize low‑voltage installations.
You lay and inspect wiring, test installations, and ensure everything operates safely and according to specifications.
You troubleshoot issues and advise customers on how to improve their installations.
After your onboarding period, you participate in our on‑call service, where you’re given plenty of freedom and responsibility.
You work independently on-site, but are always in direct contact with colleagues who support you whenever needed.

You will join a close-knit team of 60 professionals, including 30 experienced service engineers, a group where craftsmanship, knowledge-sharing, and humor go hand in hand.
You receive a thorough onboarding with guidance from experienced colleagues.
You keep learning continuously, technically and personally.
You collaborate on customer solutions and support each other whenever needed.
You grow → the team grows → the customer experiences top quality.
What will you be responsible for?
Preparing, testing, and commissioning low- and medium‑voltage installations.
Performing and recording measurements, tests, and inspections.
Reporting on completed work.
Participating in the on‑call service once you are fully trained.
What do you bring?
A completed MBO-level education in Electrical Engineering.
A few years of experience is a plus, but not required.
Knowledge of safety regulations within assembly and installation work.
Good command of Dutch and English.
A flexible, solution-oriented mindset and strong technical insight.
Driver’s license BE.
Willingness to work outside regular office hours when necessary, you don’t have a 9‑to‑5 mentality.

You can count on:
A market-competitive salary aligned with your experience.
13th-month salary.
40 days off (27 vacation days + 13 ADV).

How we calculate "similar"
No black box, no LLM guesswork: a deterministic score built from four normalized attributes. Here's this role's own peer group at different match levels, so you can see the mechanism, not just the result.
Every comparison starts from the same 100-point budget: 25 for working in the same function, 40 for the same therapeutic area, 20 for the same or adjacent seniority, 15 for the same country. A dimension we can't confirm on both sides contributes nothing, never a guess, never a free pass.
0 points, never a partial guess. A role we know almost nothing about beyond its function bottoms out at 25%; it never inflates to 100% just because there's little to compare against. Seniority uses a defined ladder (Associate → Manager → Associate Director → Senior → Principal → Director → Senior Director → Executive/VP) so "Director" and "Senior Director" count as adjacent, but "Director" and "Executive/VP" do not.
