What you'll do:

Engineering Team Leadership

• Lead, coach, and develop a team of electrical and mechanical engineers
• Balance workload across projects and build technical capability through mentoring
• Foster a culture of quality, ownership, and continuous improvement

• Ensure timely delivery of schematics, mechanical layouts, and complete EBOM packages
• Drive on-time IFC release aligned with project milestones
• Monitor engineering KPIs - quality, rework, and productivity

• Ensure compliance with IEC standards and internal engineering guidelines
• Establish and enforce design rules to minimise errors and late changes

• Develop and maintain reusable design templates, modular components (e.g., feeders, layouts), and engineering standards
• Drive efficiency through reuse, modularisation, and digital tools

• Ensure strong alignment with Project/Order Managers, Work Preparation (EBOM → mBOM readiness), Manufacturing Engineering (DFM), and Production & Test Engineering
• Support resolution of technical issues during assembly and FAT

• Oversee customer and internal engineering changes (ECR/ECO), ensuring controlled updates to drawings, BOMs, and documentation with minimal impact on production and schedule

• Analyse engineering issues and feedback from production, FAT, and customers to drive improvements in design quality, manufacturability, and engineering processes

• Degree in Engineering (Electrical Engineering preferred)
• 5+ years in LV switchgear design engineering within a project-based or industrial manufacturing environment
• Proven experience leading and developing engineering teams
• Strong understanding of LVSA architecture, system design, and manufacturing constraints
• Knowledge of IEC 61439 standards and project execution processes
• Familiarity with engineering tools (e.g., EPLAN Electric P8) is an advantage

• A technical leader who builds capability - coaching engineers, not just assigning work
• Structured, process-driven, and comfortable managing competing priorities
• A clear communicator who bridges engineering, production, and project management
• Strong sense of ownership with confident decision-making under pressure

• A performance-oriented and attractive remuneration, depending on education, qualifications, and professional experience, of approximately EUR 70,000 gross per year, paid in 14 monthly instalments (overpayment above this amount is possible depending on qualifications and experience)
