Location: Hamburg (Factory)
Job Type: Full-time
Salary: Competitive
Equity: Benchmarked
Role Overview
Own manufacturing processes from feasibility through to serial production — new part introduction, process validation, quality assurance and continuous improvement for high-precision CNC components.
You sit at the intersection of engineering, production and the customer. In a founding team of two to three people that also means: commissioning machines, sourcing inspection equipment, building the quality management system from a blank page and acting as the technical bridge between the shop floor and the customer.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and optimise CNC manufacturing processes for precision components
- Lead new part introductions (NPI) — from feasibility study and process planning to series readiness
- Create work plans, fixturing concepts and inspection plans
- Run process FMEAs and root cause analysis when things go wrong
- Work with CAM programmers to improve machining strategies, reduce cycle times and increase first-time-right rates
- Build the quality management system (EN 9100) from scratch
- Act as technical point of contact for customers on manufacturing questions and DFM feedback
- Support MasonOS integration for manufacturing data capture and scheduling
- Standardise processes and documentation for replication across the network
- Help build the factory — infrastructure, inspection equipment, workshop layout
Required Skills
- Degree in mechanical engineering, manufacturing engineering or equivalent
- Experience in CNC machining environments or manufacturing planning
- Strong understanding of machining processes, materials and tolerances
