Mechelen, Mechelen, Belgique I-care Group Temps plein

At I-care Group, you’ll join the global leader in predictive and prescriptive maintenance, where AI-powered and data-driven condition monitoring solutions help industries prevent failures before they happen. With more than 500,000 monitored assets worldwide and a presence in over 20 countries, I-care is at the forefront of safer, more efficient, and more sustainable manufacturing.

In this role, you will operate across Belgium as well as internationally within Europe, working hands-on at industrial sites to deliver high-impact diagnostics and energy optimization solutions.

What will you be doing? 

Operational Responsibilities (Field Expertise)

You will work directly on the installations to perform three diagnostics:

  • Thermographic Surveys (Insulation/Lagging):
  • Inspect steam networks, hot water systems using infrared cameras.
  • Identify thermal bridges, missing insulation
  • Calculate heat losses (in W or kWh) and the associated financial impact.
  • Steam Trap Management:
  • Conduct diagnostics using ultrasonic equipment and temperature measurements.
  • Detect leaking traps (loss of live steam) or blocked traps (risk of water hammer and corrosion).
  • Manage the inventory and database of the steam trap population.
  • Compressed Air Leak Detection:
  • Locate leaks in distribution networks and machine tools using ultrasonic detection.
  • Tag leaks and estimate their flow rate and annual cost.
  • Propose technical solutions to optimize the network's operating pressure.

Analysis and Reporting

  • ROI Calculation: Prioritize repairs based on the Return on Investment time (often less than 6 months for these specific scopes).
  • Report Writing: Summarize detected anomalies in clear technical reports for the maintenance teams.
  • KPI Tracking: Update Energy Performance Indicators (EnPIs) following repair interventions.

Who are we looking for? 

Education:

  • Technician Level: Associate degree or vocational training in HVAC, Fluids, or Energy Management.
  • Engineer Level: Bachelor’s degree in Thermal Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or Industrial Energy Efficiency.

Technical Skills:

  • Proficiency with measurement tools (IR cameras, ultrasonic detectors, flow meters).
  • Strong knowledge of thermodynamics, steam systems, and compressed air networks.
  • Level 1 or 2 Thermography Certification (a significant advantage).

Soft Skills:

  • Rigorous and autonomous while working in the field.
  • Willingness to travel
  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to explain technical data to non-experts.
  • High safety awareness (working near hot surfaces or pressurized systems).

What we offer

  • A tailor-made training program with both theoretical and hands-on learning
  • The opportunity to work with the latest Industry 4.0 and remote asset monitoring technologies
  • An innovative, dynamic, and international work environment
