Your mission

Structure and optimise the working methods related to the realisation of our products, from development to delivery, to contribute to their quality and timely completion. In close collaboration with the business teams and Quality, you translate operational needs into concrete methods and coordinate their integration into our existing ERP, with the support of an external consultant.

Your main responsibilities

• Define and document working methods: ranges, instructions and operating procedures for manufacturing, assembly, control and testing, from prototype to flight model, in line with the AS9100 quality system.
• Support industrialisation from development onwards: contribute to design reviews, product manufacturability and assemblability, as well as preparation of special processes and environmental tests.
• Coordinate the integration of methods into the ERP: gather requirements, monitor adaptations with the consultant, validate functionalities and support their commissioning and use.
• Structure production data and their transfer into the ERP: articles, bills of materials, process plans and work centres, incorporating traceability, revision management and configuration needs.
• Define delivery preparation methods, with Quality and Supply Chain: end-of-manufacture files, certificates of conformity, packaging, packing and transport.
• Improve daily practices: resolve operational difficulties, coordinate improvements and support users.
• Participate in risk analyses, change management, corrective and preventive actions as well as audits within your scope.

Your profile

• Higher technical education in mechanical engineering, microtechnology, industrial engineering or related field, or equivalent professional experience.
• Relevant experience in methods, industrialisation, production or process improvement, with a good understanding of manufacturing realities and technical documentation.
• Comfortable with industrial management tools and production data, notably bills of materials, process plans and traceability.
• Structured and pragmatic mindset, autonomy and ability to propose solutions, advance topics and arbitrate with relevant stakeholders.
• Good communication, coordination and adaptability skills, with a taste for cross-functional work and change management support.
• Fluent French and good knowledge of English.

Additional assets

Knowledge of German and additional training in Lean Management or project management are also assets.

We are interested in varied backgrounds: your ability to understand industrial challenges, collaborate with teams and develop your skills counts as much as prior mastery of our sector.

We offer

• A varied and cross-functional position in a demanding technological and industrial environment
• Great autonomy as well as the possibility to actively contribute to the evolution of our methods, processes and tools
• A modern working environment, with flexible working models
• Attractive employment conditions and prospects for professional development
