• Design processes that enable automation and CI/CD-style integration for hardware artifacts

• Lead improvement initiatives across hardware teams and supplier interfaces

• Drive status follow-ups and ensure progress across safety and development activities

• Support hardware teams with guidance on processes, compliance, and modern tooling

• Ensure consistency, structure, and traceability throughout the hardware lifecycle

We believe you are a structured and proactive engineer with a strong quality mindset. You enjoy creating clarity, driving processes, and taking ownership in complex development environments. 

We think you have: 

• A BSc or MSc in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field
