We’ll look to you for:
- Validating and qualifying manufacturing processes, including process validation, capability checks, and implementation support,
- Troubleshooting production issues on the line, identifying root causes, and coordinating corrective actions with engineering and production teams,
- Acting as the manufacturing/production-facing liaison to design engineering by communicating production constraints and providing feedback into product/assembly design,
- Creating and maintaining documentation related to manufacturing, such as BOMs, routings, work instructions, and change records,
- Supporting quality and continuous improvement efforts, including process FMEAs, QC checks, corrective actions, and process control,
- Using ERP systems (SAP or similar) as an end user to manage materials, routings, work orders, tracking, and configuration,
- Reviewing and interpreting CAD models and engineering drawings to inform manufacturing and assembly processes,
- Applying industrial/ergonomics and health & safety considerations to process and workstation design.
We value passion and attitude over experience. That’s why we don’t expect you to have every single skill. Instead, we’ve listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:
- Degree in Industrial, Mechanical or Electrical Engineering (or a closely related engineering discipline),
- Minimum 3 years of experience related to electromechanical assemblies or similar assembly-line/manufacturing environments,
- Knowledge of shop-floor manufacturing processes for electromechanical assemblies,
- Practical experience with process improvement and quality methodologies (e.g., PFMEA, root-cause analysis, QC methodologies, Lean/Six Sigma concepts desirable),
- ERP experience as an end user (SAP preferred or similar systems) — materials management, routings, work order tracking,
- Ability to write clear work instructions and process documentation,
- Understanding of industrial/ergonomics and health & safety considerations in process and workstation design,
- Familiarity with CAD tools for reading/interpreting models and drawings.
Join us on a life-long transformative journey – the rail industry is here to stay, so you can grow and develop new skills and experiences throughout your career. You’ll also:
- Progress towards becoming a key contributor in industrializing cutting-edge technologies and driving continuous improvement in manufacturing,
- Contribute to innovative projects,
- Work with electromechanical product designs, manufacturing processes, and cross-functional teams to bring innovative solutions to life,
- Benefit from our investment in your development, through award-winning learning,
