Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your engineering and process optimization expertise in a new cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside collaborative and innovative teammates.

You'll play a key role in shaping efficient manufacturing processes, ensuring quality, cost, and delivery (QCD) targets are met. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business (Engineering, Production, R&D) to co-design products, define workstation layouts, and validate industrial processes, and you’ll support the introduction of new technologies and continuous improvement initiatives, and much more.

We’ll look to you for:

• Designing the macro-process based on standard SMP,
• Preparing the introduction of new technologies with associated process validation plans,
• Identifying needs for specific manufacturing equipment,
• Estimating method time and performing preliminary line balancing,
• Identifying critical process steps for detailed Process FMEA and FAR/FAI,
• Completing industrial documentation, including industrial data sheets and IMFU,
• Defining workstation layouts while considering ergonomic and EHS rules,
• Validating product design and industrialization through FAR and FAI,
• Supporting production to achieve manufacturing QCD targets,
• Industrializing retrofits after engineering changes, including documentation and workstation updates.
