The role
Are you someone who thrives on solving problems, streamlining systems, and making things run more efficiently? As a Process Engineer on our team, you’ll play a key role in optimizing manufacturing operations and driving continuous improvement. Your deep understanding of production systems and manufacturing processes will be the foundation of your work—helping you to identify inefficiencies, implement smart solutions, and contribute to high-quality, cost-effective output.
In this role, your ability to interpret production data using tools like Excel, Minitab, or other statistical software will be essential. You’ll analyse trends, uncover hidden issues, and turn numbers into actionable insights. If you’re familiar with simulation and design software such as Aspen Plus, MATLAB, or AutoCAD, that’s a strong plus—being able to model and refine processes virtually can save both time and resources on the floor.
We value professionals who are proactive, detail-oriented, and skilled in quality management. If you know how to implement quality management systems (QMS) or apply lean manufacturing principles, you’ll be in a great position to eliminate waste and ensure our operations run as smoothly as possible. Troubleshooting and maintenance experience is also vital things don’t always go as planned, and your ability to quickly identify and fix problems will help keep production moving.
Strong problem-solving skills are at the heart of this role. Whether you’re improving an existing process or rolling out a new one, you’ll need to think critically and creatively. Communication is equally important—you’ll collaborate with colleagues across production, quality, and maintenance teams, so being able to explain your ideas clearly and work well with others is key.
Time management and organization will help you succeed, especially when you’re juggling multiple projects or tasks in a fast-paced environment. And above all, attention to detail is a must. Whether you’re analysing data, implementing changes, or troubleshooting issues, precision ensures that everything runs reliably and meets the highest standards.
This is more than just a technical role—it’s an opportunity to make a real impact. If you’re ready to bring your expertise, your drive for improvement, and your collaborative spirit to a dynamic team, we’d love to hear from you.
Key responsibilities
- Execute routine production tasks independently to ensure smooth and efficient operations.
- Set and modify production processes as required to meet operational needs.
- Review material analysis data and perform necessary process adjustments in alignment with standard operating procedures.
- Ensure that all products meet high-quality standards and comply with customer specifications.
- Customer Complaint Management: Investigate, evaluate, and address customer complaints related to process failures or product defects.
- Continuous Improvement: Proactively suggest process improvements based on customer feedback, complaint trends, and performance metrics.
- Create and maintain comprehensive documentation related to production activities and quality control processes.
- Identify and resolve process-related and hardware-related issues in collaboration with maintenance and engineering teams to facilitate timely and efficient repairs.
About you
We’re looking for a sharp, hands-on Process Engineer who thrives in a dynamic production environment and is driven by the challenge of optimizing performance while maintaining the highest standards of quality and efficiency.
You’re someone who can independently manage routine production tasks while keeping a keen eye on the bigger picture. With 2 to 5 years of experience in a manufacturing or industrial setting, you bring both the technical competence, and the practical experience needed to execute and adapt production processes in real time. Your educational background includes a master’s degree in mechanical, Industrial, or Process Engineering—providing you with the analytical foundation to evaluate data, fine-tune operations, and contribute meaningfully to continuous improvement efforts.
Your data-driven and process-minded, capable of reviewing material analysis, making informed process adjustments, and ensuring that every product meets rigorous quality standards. When issues arise—whether they’re mechanical, process-related, or customer-driven—you don’t just respond, you investigate, evaluate, and find smart, sustainable solutions. You also understand that great engineering is as much about communication as it is about calculation, and you’re able to collaborate effectively across teams to resolve challenges and drive results.
Ideally, you’re familiar with safety standards, regulatory compliance, and ISO certifications. You understand how efficiency, cost control, and quality all intersect—and you’re constantly thinking about how to reduce waste and improve output without compromising on standards.
Above all, you’re detail-oriented, proactive, and always striving to make things better. If you’re the kind of engineer who takes ownership, stays curious, and sees every challenge as an opportunity to improve, we want to hear from you
Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree in engineering (e.g., Mechanical, Industrial, or Process Engineering).
- Advanced degrees or certifications in process optimization, quality control, or a related field are a plus.
- Minimum requirements: Masters degree.
Experience:
- 2–5 years of experience in a production or process engineering role, preferably in a manufacturing or industrial environment.
- Hands-on experience with process optimization, quality assurance, and production troubleshooting.
Meritorious:
- In-depth knowledge of safety standards and regulatory compliance in production environments.
- Familiarity with ISO standards and other relevant certifications.
- Understanding of cost efficiency and waste reduction techniques in manufacturing.
