Job summary

Helsing in Barcelona is seeking a manufacturing engineer to bridge prototype and mass production for robotics. You will apply DFM/DFA principles to designs across CNC machining, sheet metal, injection moulding, and additive manufacturing to ensure scalable, cost-efficient production.

Join a mission-driven team focused on defence AI, balancing technical leadership with ethical considerations in a high-impact field.

Qualifications

Deep knowledge of DFM/DFA across CNC, sheet metal, injection-moulded plastics, and additive manufacturing.
Proven ability to redesign components to reduce cost while maintaining performance.
Proficient in 3D CAD modelling (SolidWorks) and producing manufacturing documentation (BOMs, work instructions, drawings).
Experience specifying and procuring manufacturing equipment, tools, fixtures, and production infrastructure.

Responsibilities

Lead prototype-to-production transition applying DFM/DFA for manufacturability, cost, quality across CNC, sheet metal, moulding, and additive manufacturing.
Develop and document manufacturing processes, work instructions, BOMs, and assembly procedures to scale robotics from low volume to high quality output.
Specify, procure, and develop fixturing, tooling, and equipment to ensure production-ready assembly from day one.
Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and quality teams to surface and resolve manufacturing issues early, reducing cost and rework.
Drive efficiency, quality, and cost-reduction initiatives using production data to inform design iterations.
