Senior Process Engineering Leader

Femtech Insider Ltd.; Pohjanmaa; On-site; EUR 90,000 - 120,000; Full time

Job summary

Oura is seeking a senior process engineering leader to drive development, validation, and industrialization of high-volume electronics manufacturing. You will coach a team, partner with global factories, and influence design-for-manufacturability decisions early to ensure rapid, reliable production ramp.

The role requires hands-on technical leadership, strong root-cause capability, and clear communication across engineering, operations, and suppliers.

Qualifications

• Strong people leadership experience — setting direction, delegating, developing talent, and holding a high bar for execution.
• Proven consumer electronics manufacturing experience with miniature electronics assemblies (adhesives, mechanical assembly, flex/PCB, tooling, automation).
• Deep hands-on expertise in process development, characterization, validation, and industrialization in high-volume manufacturing.
• Strong track record in root-cause analysis and corrective/preventive actions and supporting NPI builds and ramp-up.
• Ability to influence across engineering, operations, quality, and external manufacturing partners, converting data into practical priorities.
• Clear written and verbal English communication; willingness to travel to development sites, factories, and suppliers.

Responsibilities

• Lead, coach, and develop a team of process engineers — setting priorities, performance expectations, and development plans.
• Define and drive the process engineering roadmap across new and sustaining programs, aligned with company and manufacturing readiness priorities.
• Lead process development, validation, and design transfer from EVT/DVT through PVT and mass production ramp, through direct team leadership and factory engagement.
• Drive Design for Manufacturability/Assembly with mechanical, electrical, product, quality, and operations teams to influence decisions early.
• Lead complex troubleshooting, failure analysis, and corrective action (DOE, SPC, 8D, 5-Why, Ishikawa) across prototype, pilot, ramp, and sustaining production.
• Own process engineering's contribution to NPI builds — readiness reviews, line preparation, issue escalation, and closure of action items.
• Ensure successful factory ramp-up through readiness planning, process capability development, and issue recovery with internal teams and manufacturing partners.
• Establish process capability and measurement discipline (Cp/Cpk, GR&R, MSA) and maintain core process documentation (PFMEAs, control plans, work instructions).
• Drive yield improvement and operational efficiency by prioritizing high-impact issues and scaling solutions into robust standards.
• Build strong relationships with global factory partners and suppliers, and communicate process readiness, risks, and tradeoffs to senior stakeholders.
