Production Engineer (all genders)

As a Production Engineer, you will work where value is created: on the production line. You will analyze operations together with shift leaders and operators, eliminate recurring issues at their root cause, and embed sustainable solutions into production standards. Short decision-making paths, a small team, and real ownership mean that decisions you make today can be implemented on the line tomorrow.

Your area of responsibilities include:

• Analyze production processes on the line, identify bottlenecks and recurring sources of disruption, and implement sustainable corrective actions.
• Provide technical support during line disruptions and derive permanent corrective measures from recurring issues.
• Independently plan and implement continuous improvement (CIP/KVP) initiatives and measure their impact on cycle time, quality, and equipment availability.
• Apply and establish Lean Manufacturing methods within the plant, including standard work, line balancing, and waste elimination.
• Create and maintain process standards and work instructions, and assess the impact of engineering changes (CRs) on production performance.
• Support shift leadership and production operators in daily operations and introduce improvements in close collaboration with them.
