Technical installations and controls for pools, leisure facilities, and industrial production
Hellebrekers designs, builds, and maintains mechanical and electrical systems for public swimming pools, leisure venues, and manufacturing plants across the Netherlands. The company pairs hardware engineering (PLC, Revit, mechanical design) with full-stack software delivery (Java, Spring Boot, Angular, PostgreSQL) — reflecting a vertically integrated systems integrator. Active hiring skews 80% toward engineering roles, concentrated in mid-to-senior levels, while pain points cluster around energy management, material logistics, and a stated push toward configure-to-order delivery models, suggesting operational scaling challenges common in engineer-to-order shops.
