YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
Your mission: As Team Lead for Equipment & Tooling, you’ll be responsible for leading a growing team at the intersection of mechanical design and automation. From forming tools to machining fixtures and flowforming systems – you’ll oversee the full lifecycle of our manufacturing equipment. You coordinate cross-functional interfaces, structure project plans, and make sure we build tools that power high-tech production at scale.
Lead & empower your team: You take on disciplinary and technical leadership of a team of design and automation engineers – providing clarity, direction, and hands-on support.
Own the fixture roadmap: You plan and prioritize all equipment projects – from early needs assessment to delivery – aligning closely with manufacturing milestones and capacity planning.
Bridge automation and mechanical design: You connect both worlds and ensure projects reflect the full system perspective.
Create feedback loops from production: You build structured channels to gather feedback from manufacturing teams and drive continuous improvement for all tools in use.
Ensure documentation & maintainability: You take responsibility for complete technical documentation, including maintenance plans and user manuals (in collaboration with automation engineers).
Drive CE-readiness: You understand risk assessments, the Machinery Directive, and the documentation needed for CE certification.
