- Support the introduction of new manufacturing equipment and automated systems.
- Contribute to equipment specification, supplier engagement, FAT, SAT, commissioning and production handover.
- Provide hands-on engineering support to production, troubleshooting manufacturing issues and improving process performance.
- Lead and support root cause analysis (RCA) and structured problem-solving activities.
- Identify and implement process improvements to increase yield, throughput, quality and process stability.
- Apply Lean Manufacturing and Continuous Improvement techniques to manufacturing processes.
- Support activities such as Kaizen, 5S and workplace/workflow optimisation where appropriate.
- Support PFMEA/FMEA, risk assessment and engineering change activities.
- Contribute to manufacturing CapEx and capital equipment projects.
