Industrial automation consulting and engineering across manufacturing, energy, and process sectors
Actemium Nederland is a 1,250-person industrial systems integrator operating across 23 locations in the Netherlands and Belgium. The tech stack is heavily weighted toward factory automation—Siemens PLC, SCADA, MES, DCS, HMI, and IEC/Modbus protocols dominate—with light touches of .NET and Python for integration and scripting. Engineering dominates headcount (~100 of ~135 active hiring roles), but the pain-point list reveals operational strain: personnel shortages, onboarding friction, and delivery-time pressure suggest a labor-constrained, project-driven business scaling faster than its support functions can keep pace.
Notable leadership hires: Lead Technician, Project Lead
