Industrialization Engineer

You integrate project development teams with an Industrialization role, acting as the bridge between engineering and manufacturing and driving the transition from early prototypes to repeatable, high-rate production.

• You perform industrialization activities for current and future Aerospacelab products in order to meet defined timeline, cost, and quality requirements
• You work closely with the engineering team to integrate manufacturing requirements during development phases, providing systematic Design for Manufacturing/Assembly feedback and challenging designs that create production bottlenecks
• You create and maintain in the ERP the procurement/production BOM based on the Engineering BOM
• You work closely with the pre-series team to define and implement manufacturing ranges and work instructions
• You convert engineering designs into robust, repeatable processes suitable for serial production
• You contribute to the definition, commissioning, and continuous improvement of the Final Assembly Line (FAL) at the Megafactory, including machine selection, tooling, fixtures, and GSE
• You support production forecasting and load-capacity analyses to anticipate ramp-up constraints and throughput bottlenecks
• You set up assembly and test automation (including report generation) for serial production
• You build and deliver production training for operators and technicians, and identify areas of improvement for future serial productions

You are a key contributor to the manufacturing strategy of Aerospacelab:

• You accompany the production ramp-up towards a rate of tens of satellites per month at the Megafactory
• Based on your experience, you give hands-on feedback about part manufacturability, assembly sequences, and test strategy to engineering and manufacturing teams
• You contribute to implementing product lifecycle management at Aerospacelab

Must have

• Engineering degree
• 2–5 years of experience in industrialization, manufacturing methods, production engineering, or a hands-on manufacturing role, factory floor experience is expected
• Fluent in English
• Genuinely curious, hands-on problem-solver with an out-of-the-box mindset
• Autonomous, rigorous, and comfortable operating in a fast-moving, build-as-you-go environment

Nice to have

• Experience in high-complexity manufacturing industries (automotive, medtech, pharma, defense…)
• Prior exposure to space sector constraints (cleanroom, environmental testing, GSE definition, ECSS…)
• Background in machine or equipment commissioning and FAL implementation
• Odoo ERP or equivalent MES/ERP knowledge
