improvement initiatives. Plans, designs, and monitors the progress
of cost reduction sprints.
- Builds relationships with key stakeholders and fosters idea
generation through benchmarking.
Изисквания и необходими умения
Educational Background:
1. Process Engineering
A degree or significant coursework in Process Engineering is highly
valued, especially if it emphasizes manufacturing techniques,
workflow optimization, and materials transformation processes.
Experience with Lean Manufacturing principles, Six Sigma
methodologies, or similar process improvement tools is a plus.
2. Degree in Mechanical Engineering
The ideal candidate holds a bachelor's or master’s degree in
Mechanical engineering from a recognized institution. This
education should provide a strong foundation in mechanical systems,
material science, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and structural
analysis.
3. Significant Expertise as a Mechanical Specialist
Candidates without formal degrees may be considered if they
demonstrate
substantial experience (typically 5+ years) in mechanical
engineering or related roles. This includes hands-on experience
with mechanical systems, manufacturing processes, troubleshooting,
and quality control in an industrial setting.
Required Knowledge:
1. Primary Transformation Processes:
Casting, forging, sintering, stamping, injection molding, etc.:
The candidate must understand the principles, equipment, and
variables affecting these manufacturing processes. They should be
capable of assessing the suitability of each process for specific
materials and product requirements, including cost and efficiency
considerations. Experience working with suppliers or manufacturing
facilities specializing in these processes is preferred.
2. Machining Processes:
Milling, turning, grinding, drilling, etc.:
The candidate should have in-depth knowledge of various
machining
techniques, tools, and equipment. They must understand how to
select appropriate processes based on material properties, desired
tolerances, and surface finishes. Familiarity with CNC programming
or operations is advantageous.
3. Heat Treatments:
Quenching and tempering, annealing, case hardening, nitriding,
etc.:
The role requires expertise in the selection and application of
heat treatment methods to achieve desired mechanical properties
like hardness, tensile strength, and ductility. Candidates should
understand the effect of these treatments on microstructures and
overall material performance.
4. Mechanical Drawing:
Assessing machining operations according to specified surface
finish and tolerances:
The candidate must have strong skills in reading and interpreting
technical drawings, including GDCT (Geometric Dimensioning and
Tolerancing). They should be able to evaluate drawings to determine
machining feasibility, tool requirements, and potential
manufacturing challenges.
5. CAD Software:
Examining 3D models and extracting essential information (volume,
weight, thickness, etc.):
Proficiency in CAD software such as SolidWorks, CATIA, AutoCAD, or
similar tools is required. The candidate should be adept at
analyzing 3D models, performing basic measurements, and extracting
key data to assist in material selection, cost estimation, and
process planning. Familiarity with PLM systems is a bonus.
6. B2 English level.
