Engineering
Immediate Start
Annual Salary
Full-Time
Thermoteknix is establishing a new Production Engineering team within R&D to transition products from development into robust, scalable manufacturing.
The Mechanical Engineer will play a role in ensuring mechanical aspects of new and existing products are optimised for manufacture, test, assembly, and long-term production support. This role covers production process development, fixture and jig design, documentation, and continuous improvement of manufacturing capability.
Key Responsibilities
New Product Introduction & Transfer to Manufacturing
* Support the structured transfer of products from R&D into engineering and manufacturing.
* Ensure mechanical designs are suitable for production through DFM/DFA reviews.
* Lead mechanical workstreams within NPI projects, ensuring readiness for build and scale.
* Collaborate with design engineers to finalise manufacturable mechanical solutions.
Production Engineering Development
* Design and develop mechanical assembly fixtures, test jigs, tooling, and support equipment.
* Define and document mechanical build procedures, assembly instructions, and production workflows.
* Establish repeatable and controlled manufacturing processes for mechanical sub-assemblies.
Continuous Improvement & Manufacturing Optimisation
* Drive improvements in manufacturing efficiency, quality, and repeatability for products already in production.
* Identify opportunities to streamline mechanical assembly processes and reduce build time.
* Support cost-reduction initiatives through design refinement and improved production methods.
* Implement engineering change solutions to enhance manufacturability and reliability
