Teamlead Mechanical Design
Lead and inspire a highly skilled team of mechanical engineers to deliver top-quality designs for advanced sputtering equipment at Soleras. Key duties include coaching team members to support their professional development, aligning individual capabilities with specific project objectives, and fostering a culture built around open communication, continuous improvement, and shared ownership.
- Define and implement design rules and best practices for consistent, high-quality project outcomes.
- Ensure projects employ modular, scalable, and technically robust design principles throughout all phases.
- Oversee the planning, prioritization, and execution of multiple concurrent design projects, carefully balancing timelines, budgets, and resources.
- Monitor project progress, anticipate challenges, and make timely adjustments to maintain momentum from concept to delivery.
- Establish and oversee structured review and approval processes for all mechanical designs and associated technical documentation.
- Work closely with production and manufacturing teams to integrate design for manufacturing principles—ensuring designs are practical to produce, straightforward to assemble, and compliant with all quality standards.
- Utilize AutoCAD 3D and other advanced tools to drive precision and innovation in engineering workflows.
The role demands experience with complex mechanical systems design and production engineering in a machine-building context, combined with strong leadership and project management abilities. Occasional travel (10–15%) may be required to coordinate with teams and stakeholders. Fluency in English is essential for facilitating effective team collaboration and communication.
We are looking for candidates who combine strong technical expertise with inspiring leadership. The ideal person thrives in a dynamic engineering environment, possessing a deep understanding of mechanical design—especially within advanced equipment or machine-building industries. A passion for innovation and a drive to deliver world-class, robust solutions is essential.
- Courageous motivator: You naturally foster a culture of ownership, growth, and open communication. You coach, support, and empower team members, helping them leverage their unique strengths while aligning them with organizational goals.
- Visionary leader: You see the big picture and actively shape the team’s approach. You ensure that best practices, design standards, and structured review processes are implemented and followed, driving excellence in every project.
- Methodical and quality-oriented: You bring a detail-focused mindset to quality assurance, actively promoting modular, scalable, and technically robust design approaches. You have experience translating high standards into clear design rules and enforce them with consistency.
- Strategist and facilitator: You excel at planning and prioritizing resources across multiple projects. Adaptable and forward-thinking, you anticipate challenges and make swift, effective decisions to keep progress on course.
- Production-minded collaborator: You naturally integrate ‘design for manufacturing’ thinking into your work, valuing collaboration with production teams to ensure practicality, manufacturability, and high standards in all deliverables.
- Skilled communicator: You express ideas and feedback clearly in English, ensuring everyone is aligned and informed. You welcome input from others and value transparency in your leadership approach.
Candidates will ideally hold a Master’s degree in (Electro)Mechanical Engineering or possess equivalent experience. A strong background in mechanical design engineering, preferably in machine-building settings, is highly valued. You bring proven experience with AutoCAD 3D, project management, process design, and technical documentation. Your approach combines initiative, foresight, and a willingness to travel occasionally as needed.
