What We’re Looking for a Manufacturing Engineer with Project management skills

As a Manufacturing Engineer at Mighty Buildings, you will be the bridge between our production technology & process and project management. You will leverage your technical engineering skills to help external and internal teams understand how different manufacturing equipment and production processes impact each other and identify strategies to improve production metrics through technological capability and due to the project management approach.

In this role, you will work closely with the manufacturing operations team (supply chain, maintenance, shop floor operators, engineering teams) and external parties, including subcontractors, and local authorities, to collect requirements, identify budget constraints, project schedule, and maintain project track.  

As the Manufacturing Project Engineer, you will have the exciting opportunity to lead and participate as the primary contributor to projects that will revolutionize how we produce and manufacture 3D-printed houses. With our cutting-edge technologies and your knowledge, you can optimize and improve our production line to deliver top-quality products to our customers and set up standards for the whole 3D construction industry.

What You’ll Be Doing

Manufacturing engineering: 

• Develop projects for the retrofitting and modernization of the production line in accordance with specified efficiency parameters (OEE) using lean manufacturing approaches.
