Your mission

Looking for a role where your decisions directly shape the final product? Join us and work on complex, high-impact industrial machinery products. In this role, you will be close to the entire product lifecycle -from initial assembly on the shop floor to final delivery and customer feedback. We offer true autonomy, real decision-making power, and visible ownership over the quality of our flagship products.

This is not a desk-bound role. We are looking for a hands-on engineer who thrives on the production floor. You will spend roughly 2 to 3 hours every day directly in the manufacturing area, leading morning walk-throughs, supporting assembly teams, and driving shop-floor quality audits. You will serve as the hub for root cause analysis and problem solving-identifying what happened, understanding why, and implementing corrective actions that prevent recurrence. You collaborate with cross-functional teams in Product Lifetime Care (PLC) and New Products Development (NPD).

Key responsibilities

• Walk the assembly line daily, check product quality, and give immediate feedback to production and paint shop teams
• Find the root causes of assembly defects and customer complaints using 8D and A3 tools to keep issues from happening again
• Audits & Product Release: Audit the build process and inspect finished products (including cranes) before approving them for delivery
• Separate defective parts, decide whether to repair or scrap them, and log claims for supplier quality issues
• Collect quality data, track error rates, and share clear reports with management and production leaders
• Create simple inspection plans, approve quality documents and initiate Engineering Change Requests.

What we are looking for

• Technical degree in Engineering (B.Sc. / M.Sc. is required)
• Minimum 2 years of quality engineering experience within a manufacturing or assembly environment
• Proficiency in the 8D methodology with a proven track record of resolving shop-floor quality issues
• Basic knowledge of quality core tools and frameworks: FMEA, PPAP, and A3
• Communicative English skills both written and verbal
• Ability to read and interpret technical drawings.

You are naturally curious with an eye for detail, always digging deeper to solve the real problem rather than just the symptom. Grounded and decisive, you take ownership quickly and feel completely at home making firm calls on a fast-paced production floor.

What we offer

As a part of our Employees First culture, we offer opportunities to grow within a dynamic environment that values flexibility and your well-being. We strive to make things easier, empower you to succeed, and strive for excellence in a positive and inclusive environment.

Our benefits include

• Private medical care in Medicover
• Life insurance
• Flexible hybrid working
• Transportation allowance and meal vouchers
• MultiSport or Medicover Sport card
