Job Description
Manufacturing Systems Engineer
\nI am partnered with an upcoming materials company where they utilise a combined approach using automation and AI to move from discovery toward scale, manufacturing systems.
\nWe are looking for a manufacturing systems engineer who will design and build the systems, processes, and flows that allow the materials platforms to scale from lab-level validation to repeatable, industrially relevant production.
\nResponsibilities:
\n• Design end-to-end manufacturing processes and production workflows.
\n• Define process flows, equipment requirements, and production capacity.
\n• Translate R&D workflows into scalable manufacturing systems.
\n• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams across research, automation, software, and AI.
\n• You will identify scale up risks and lab-scale assumptions to break higher throughput.
\n• Design data-driven manufacturing systems that enable continuous process improvement and feedback into development. You will be a key player involved in the feedback loops between manufacturing, experimentation and AI models.
\nJob Requirements:
\n• A degree in mechanical engineering, chemical engineering or something related.
\n• A minimum of 5+ years of experience designing or scaling manufacturing or process systems in industrial settings
\n• Strong understanding of manufacturing processes, equipment, and systems engineering.
\n• Written and verbal fluency in English.
