Technical consultant (Rotterdam)

Engineering is entering a new era.

AI, automation, and software are rapidly changing how engineering work gets done. But in most engineering organizations, the reality is still fragmented: valuable knowledge is locked in spreadsheets, scripts, documents, models, and individual experts. Critical workflows depend on manual checks, disconnected tools, and repetitive project work. AI has huge potential, but without the right platform it remains hard to apply safely, reliably, and at scale in real engineering processes.

That is exactly what VIKTOR is built for.

VIKTOR is the AI-powered application platform for engineering and construction companies. We help engineers turn their expertise, calculations, models, data, documents, simulations, and AI agents into governed applications that can be used across projects, teams, and organizations. With VIKTOR, engineering companies can move beyond isolated tools and experiments. They can build scalable workflows where engineers, software, and AI work together: automating repetitive tasks, connecting specialist software, capturing expert knowledge, checking designs, analyzing documents, running simulations, and supporting better engineering decisions. Our platform is used by tens of thousands of engineers worldwide to make engineering work faster, smarter, more scalable, and more impactful.

Now we are looking for a Technical Consultant who wants to work at the intersection of engineering, AI, software, and client impact.

Someone who understands real engineering problems, enjoys going deep technically, builds strong relationships with clients, and helps leading engineering organizations apply AI and automation where it actually matters: inside their day-to-day engineering workflows.

The role

You have built up a few years of engineering experience, and you are ready for something bigger than executing one project after another. You want to work at the frontier of engineering technology. You want to understand complex workflows, challenge how engineering work is done today, and help engineers turn their knowledge into scalable, AI-powered applications that create measurable impact.

As a Technical Consultant at VIKTOR, you are the bridge between engineering practice and the technology that is transforming it. You work closely with engineers at leading contractors, engineering firms, and asset owners such as BAM, Heijmans, Arcadis, and others. You dive into their workflows, uncover the real bottlenecks, and help them build applications on the VIKTOR platform that automate calculations, connect tools, use AI safely, improve decision-making, and scale expertise across teams. The impact is tangible: saving thousands of engineering hours, reducing CO₂ and material use, lowering project costs, improving quality, and making complex projects more predictable. Think of applications used on major infrastructure, offshore wind, energy, buildings, and industrial projects, including projects such as the world’s longest immersed tunnel and offshore wind foundations. But your role goes beyond delivery. Because you work directly with clients, you see what is really happening in the engineering market. You understand where engineers struggle, where software falls short, where AI can create value, and where VIKTOR needs to go next. You bring those insights back into the company and help shape the product, platform, and strategy used by thousands of engineers worldwide.

What you’ll do

Implementation Engineering You build AI-powered engineering applications for and together with clients. Using your engineering background and Python skills, you help translate domain expertise, calculations, models, documents, simulations, and workflows into scalable VIKTOR applications. You do not just ask what needs to be built; you understand why it matters, how it fits into the engineering process, and how AI or automation can create real project impact. You co-develop with client teams, write Python, connect engineering tools, structure workflows, integrate AI capabilities, and train engineers so they can build and improve applications themselves.

Technical Consultancy You act as a trusted technical advisor to clients. You help clients solve complex, non-standard engineering workflow challenges. You advise them on how to use VIKTOR to automate processes, apply AI safely, scale internal knowledge, increase adoption, and make applications part of daily engineering work. You also support the sales team in technical conversations with potential customers by showing what is possible, challenging assumptions, and translating engineering problems into AI and platform opportunities.

Spotting Opportunities You build long-term relationships with clients and understand where VIKTOR can create more value inside their organization. Because you are close to the actual engineering work, you can identify new use cases, new teams, and new strategic opportunities. You spot where AI, automation, and connected workflows can remove bottlenecks and unlock value. You actively contribute to expanding client accounts and landing new consultancy projects.

Product Feedback Your field experience gives you a unique perspective. You see the friction, needs, ambitions, and limitations that clients experience in practice. You understand which AI use cases are valuable, which ones are not yet ready, and what engineers need to trust and adopt new technology. You translate those insights into clear product feedback and work with the VIKTOR team to improve the platform. You help make sure we are not just building AI features, but building the platform engineers actually need to use AI safely and effectively.

Project Management & Internal Development You keep your projects running smoothly in terms of planning, scope, budget, communication, and quality. You also invest in your own development, improve internal ways of working, and contribute to the knowledge, culture, and technical capability of the consultancy team.

Why this role matters

This is not a traditional engineering consultancy role.

You will not spend your time only producing reports, calculations, or project deliverables. You will help engineers change the way they work. You will help leading engineering organizations move from manual processes, isolated tools, and AI experiments to scalable, governed, AI-powered engineering workflows. You will work with Python, automation, AI, simulation, software integrations, and domain knowledge to build applications that have real impact on real projects.

At VIKTOR, you are close to the client, close to the product, and close to the future of engineering If you want to use your engineering background to help thousands of engineers work smarter, faster, and with more impact through AI and automation, this is the role for you.
