Thales people architect solutions at the heart of the defence-security continuum.

Interoperable and secure information and telecommunications systems for defence, security, and civil operators, are based upon innovative use of radiocommunications, networks, and cybersecurity.

We are ground breaking new digital technologies such as 4G/5G mobile communications, cryptography, cloud computing and big data for use in physical protection systems, and critical information systems.

Thales Belgium SA, Belgium competence center of Thales, is a company located on 2 sites, one in Tubize (near Brussels) and the other one in Herstal (near Liège).

Thales Belgium, which employs more than 280 collaborators, is specialized in the design, development and supply of critical information systems for customers in the sectors of Defense, Security (including Cyber) and Aerospace.

The
Technical Design Office (TDO) of Thales Belgium is a
multidisciplinary technical team.

The team integrates mechanical, analog radio frequency, digital, and component engineering technologies.

Besides that, the office offers technical support to the production activities located at the Tubize site.

The TDO consists of three sub-teams, each with their own team leader; there is the department "Mechanical design", "Components & Magnetics", and "PCB Design".

In total, seven people work in the office.

To support the team, we are currently looking for a
Technical Design Office Coordinator (TDOC).
