Netflix, your banking app, ChatGPT, it all runs on power that must never go down, and we keep it running. As a Trainee Electrical Engineer you learn the trade from the ground up. No diploma needed. You work four days alongside experienced engineers in the Amsterdam cluster and spend one day a week at school. Within three years you'll be working independently in data centers across the Netherlands.
