Industrial Architect

Amsterdam
Full-time
Permanent employee

The role

We are expanding our industrialization capabilities and are looking for an Industrial Architect to join our Factory Engineering team in Amsterdam. You will shape how our industrial facilities are designed and adapted as we convert and build out our first commercial production sites. 


Working closely with engineering, operations and external design partners, you will translate manufacturing and operational requirements into practical architectural layouts and building solutions. Acting as the internal architectural lead, you will guide external partners to ensure building designs that support factory needs and operational realities. This is a hands-on role in an early factory design and execution environment, focused on creating facilities that are functional, compliant and ready to support advanced manufacturing from day one.


This role reports to Axel Save, Head of Factory Engineering. 

Key responsibilities

  • Develop, adapt and deliver architectural layouts and building concepts for modern industrial and manufacturing facilities.

  • Act as internal design lead towards external architects and engineering partners, guiding building design to meet manufacturing and operational requirements. 

  • Translate process, manufacturing and operational needs into practical construction layouts, zoning and buildable solutions.

  • Coordinate facility elements with industrial equipment, utilities, logistical flows and technical spaces.

  • Drive alignment between internal functions and external partners across design, permitting, construction and operational phases.

  • Ensure facilities meet industrial safety, fire protection, accessibility and sustainability requirements. 

Your profile

  • Degree in Architecture or related field with a strong industrial or technical focus.

  • 3+ years of proven experience from industrial or manufacturing manufacturing facility projects (required).

  • Experience leading and coordinating external design resources in complex technical projects.

  • Strong ability to translate manufacturing and operational requirements into practical building solutions.

  • Comfortable working closely with engineers, equipment suppliers and construction teams.

  • Familiarity with industrial building systems, safety standards and permitting processes, preferably in a Dutch/European context.

  • Strong proficiency in BIM-based design workflows and modern digital design tools (incl. Autodesk Revit) is expected. Experience with model and family management, clash coordination and CDE-based collaboration is highly valued.

  • Hands-on experience with brownfield redevelopment or adaptive reuse projects is a strong plus.
