Job description

Creo Center is a multidisciplinary product development partner for organizations that want to succeed with new innovations or by promoting the development of current products. With our wide service portfolio, we are able to provide high-level design for product development projects in various fields and be a strategic partner for both local and international companies. Our customers are mainly top product development organizations, leading manufacturing companies and startups developing innovative product ideas. Due to our growth and internationalization, we are pioneers in our field in several service areas, and our ambition is to grow and develop further into one of the most significant product development organisations in the Nordic countries both in terms of product development and as an implementer of product development‑driven digital transformation.

Due to our growth, we are now looking for a mechanical designer for plastic product design in Espoo!

Your role with us

In this role, you will be responsible for the mechanical design of plastic products, focusing especially on injection‑moulded products. The work also includes the design of metal parts, such as thin sheet structures and wire‑bending parts as part of larger product entities, and the design emphasises in particular the consideration of manufacturability and production requirements throughout the design process. You will get to work on versatile product development projects as part of a multidisciplinary team. We are looking for an expert for this role who already has experience in the mechanical design of plastic products, especially the design of injection‑moulded products, as well as Creo 3D CAD skills. Experience with MIL standards and specifications and working in regulated industries, as well as surface modelling skills in the Creo environment, are considered an advantage. A suitable educational background for the position could be, for example, a mechanical engineering or mechatronics engineer/MSc or alternatively a university degree in the field of design.

Since product development is always done in close cooperation with colleagues and customers, we value strong cooperation skills, openness and extroversion in all our roles. Operating in a multidisciplinary, international project environment also requires the ability to act both independently and as part of a team and requires good communication skills in both Finnish and English.

• A developing career: An expert network of colleagues and our wide customer base consisting of different industries offer you constant new learning opportunities. In a rapidly growing organisation, you will be able to develop new things and influence the operating methods of the team and unit!

• A share of common successes: We believe in common successes and share part of the operating profit among all our employees annually as part of the People‑bonus.
• A smooth workday: We work hybridly with flexible working hours because we want to support the combination of work and other life. We also ensure the smoothness of work by investing in modern tools and software as well as pleasant premises.
