YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

Your mission : As Team Lead for Equipment & Tooling, you’ll be responsible for leading a growing team at the intersection of mechanical design and automation. From forming tools to machining fixtures and flowforming systems – you’ll oversee the full lifecycle of our manufacturing equipment. You coordinate cross-functional interfaces, structure project plans, and make sure we build tools that power high-tech production at scale.

Lead & empower your team : You take on disciplinary and technical leadership of a team of design and automation engineers – providing clarity, direction, and hands-on support.

Own the fixture roadmap : You plan and prioritize all equipment projects – from early needs assessment to delivery – aligning closely with manufacturing milestones and capacity planning.

Bridge automation and mechanical design : You connect both worlds and ensure projects reflect the full system perspective.

Create feedback loops from production : You build structured channels to gather feedback from manufacturing teams and drive continuous improvement for all tools in use.

Ensure documentation & maintainability : You take responsibility for complete technical documentation, including maintenance plans and user manuals (in collaboration with automation engineers).

Drive CE-readiness : You understand risk assessments, the Machinery Directive, and the documentation needed for CE certification.

YOUR PROFILE

Technical background : You’ve trained or studied in mechanical engineering, special machinery, automation, or a related field.

Relevant experience : 4–5+ years of experience in tooling, equipment or production line development – ideally as a team lead, project manager, or senior design engineer in special machinery or manufacturing plant engineering.

Leadership ambition : You’ve led a team or driven complex projects – and are ready to take full ownership of a team and area.

System-level understanding : You bring solid knowledge in electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic systems – ideally with experience in robotic systems.

Drawing literacy : You can read, review, and guide technical drawings confidently.

Hands-on & challenger mindset : You’re passionate about building and improving – and excited by high-tech processes like composite winding, pressing, laminating, or flowforming.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Creative freedom & responsibility : Autonomy, scope for decision-making and short implementation paths.
• Flexible working hours & remote option : You can work remotely by arrangement.
• Culinary variety : Lunch together with fresh, varied dishes every day.
• Attractive additional benefits : Choose between Deutschlandticket, EGYM-Wellpass or a monthly top-up payment card (Givve Card).
• Knowledge exchange at the highest level : Work with experienced engineers and experts from the aerospace industry.
• Dynamic environment : Exciting projects, development opportunities and a start-up atmosphere with agile, cross-functional collaboration.
