  PEOPLE // DRIVE // TECHNOLOGY TMC Mechanical is an engineering & technical consultancy company, part of the TMC Group N.V. Our support focuses on development and engineering of complex systems, typically taking place in multidisciplinary teams. We fulfill key positions in projects, that enable our customers to remain up to speed and maintain their competitive advantage. Most of our 700+ highly educated "Employeneurs" (a blend of employee and entrepreneur) have a proven track record, and are insourced by customers for technical assignments where specialized knowledge and skills are required. Currently, around 65+ Employeneurs are working in the TMC Mechanical business cell. We accomplish assignments for high-tech companies in a variety of industry sectors, like automotive, semiconductor, healthcare, solar, machinery, product development, research institutes, oil & gas. Our team includes designers, lead engineers, product developers, architects, heat and flow specialists, structural engineers and project leaders. Within TMC Mechanical, I am also member of the TMC Analyses & Numerics Community (CAE Team). In the period Dec 2011 - May 2017 I worked at our client DAF Trucks NV in Eindhoven (NL). As of June 1, 2017 I work at our client Bosch Transmission Technology in Tilburg (NL), supporting R&D activities for the new generation pushbelt for CVTs, Single Loopset Belt SLB.
