Production Engineer

Mego Employment is working with our client to recruit a Production Engineer in Ashburton.
Our client is a growing company relocating to a new, purpose-built facility, offering an exciting opportunity to join the team during a key phase of growth.

What You'll Be Doing:
As a Production Engineer, you'll support the manufacturing process, focusing on improving production efficiency, ensuring top-notch quality, and maintaining smooth operations. Your work will help streamline processes, solve challenges, and ensure everything runs smoothly within a regulated environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Looking at how things are made and figuring out how to make them better, faster, or simpler-without cutting corners
• Making sure every product that goes out the door is safe, high-quality, and meets all the necessary standards. Putting together solid, easy-to-follow processes and keeping the paperwork in good shape (think BOMs, checklists, workflows).
• Keeping production equipment in good working order-organising maintenance, calibrations, and making sure everything is validated and ready to go.
• Jumping in when things go wrong on the line, finding the problem, and getting things back on track quickly.
• Working side by side with other depertments and production teams to keep everything running smoothly.
• Sharing your know-how with other team members and helping newer staff learn the ropes.
• Making sure everything we do meets the rules and regs (like ISO13485 and FDA).

What We're Looking For:

• You've got a degree in engineering (mechanical, biomedical, industrial, or something similar).
• You're comfortable with electronics and acoustics and have used those skills in a manufacturing setting.
• You get how production works-from tools and machines to the paperwork that keeps things compliant.
• You've worked with CAD or FEA tools before and can get stuck into Microsoft Office when needed.
• You're naturally analytical and good at spotting issues, solving problems, and keeping calm under pressure.

Benefits:

• 25 days of annual leave
• Company pension scheme
• Cycle to work scheme
• Free on-site parking

Due to the location of the business, you will need to have access to your own transport.
