Job Description:

Project Engineer – Continuous Improvement (CI) | Automation, Data & MES. This is a rare chance to join at the exact moment a new production line is being installed and ramped. You will step into a hands-on engineering role, first focusing on installation & commissioning, then transitioning into a long-term Continuous Improvement (CI) role where you will optimize flow, performance, data capture, and decision-making systems.

Job Responsibility:

  • Co-lead installation & start-up of a new production line (commissioning in March)
  • Identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies, downtime drivers, quality risks and safety improvements
  • Define where and how data should be captured (what matters, what doesn’t, what’s missing)
  • Support a “test in pilot before scaling” approach

Requirements:

  • Hands-on experience from production environments (close to machines and operators)
  • Strong mechanical/technical understanding—automation knowledge is a plus
  • Comfort with commissioning / start-up phases and working “live” in production
  • Ability to structure problems and drive practical improvements
  • Understanding of CI / LEAN fundamentals (Kaizen, 5S, continuous improvement thinking)
  • Interest in data capture, sensors, and production systems

Nice to have:

  • PLC knowledge (preferred: Siemens S7)
  • Experience with MES / production execution systems
  • Experience with fermentation, bio-processes, or data-heavy production
  • Experience defining data structures for ML readiness (without needing to build models yourself)
