STARK is a new kind of defence technology company revolutionising the way autonomous systems are deployed across multiple domains. We design develop and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are software-defined mass-scalable and cost-effective - providing operators with a decisive edge in contested environments.
We are focused on delivering deployable high-performance systems - not future a time of rising threats STARK is bolstering the technological edge of NATO Allies and their Partners to deter aggression and defend Europe today.
Your mission
As aManufacturing Engineer (Generalist & MTM Specialist) you will focus on maximizing production efficiency line balancing and labor optimization. While you support broad manufacturing engineering topics your superpower is usingMethods-Time Measurement (MTM)to analyze manual operations eliminate waste and establish accurate standard times. You will ensure our shop floor operations are highly efficient safe and ergonomically sound.
Pre-Production Design Input:Partner with R&D during the initial prototyping and design phases to review manual assembly steps. Propose design modifications that simplify manual handling reduce component orientation complexity and minimize assembly errors.
Predictive Labor Costing:Utilize MTM methodologies on early-stage CAD models and prototypes to estimate standard assembly times helping R&D evaluate the labor-cost impact of different design variations.
Mistake-Proofing (Poka-Yoke):Work with R&D to define physical design features (e.g. asymmetrical alignment pins keyed slots) that make incorrect manual assembly physically impossible.
Ergonomic Design Guidance:Ensure R&D designs avoid requiring excessive physical force awkward hand postures or specialized dexterity protecting operators from repetitive strain injuries once the product hits mass production.
Work Measurement & MTM
Time & Motion Analysis:Apply MTM methodologies (MTM-1 MTM-2 or UAS) to analyze manual assembly operations establish precise standard times and eliminate waste.
Line Balancing & Layout:Design and continuously optimize production line balancing to eliminate bottlenecks distribute workloads evenly and maximize throughput.
Qualifications
Bachelors degree in Industrial Engineering Manufacturing Engineering or a related field.
Certified MTM practitioner(strongly preferred) with proven experience applying time-study and work-measurement methodologies on a live production floor.
Strong background in Lean Manufacturing workplace ergonomics and facility layout design.
SECURITY CLEARANCE Due to the nature of our work in the defence sector candidates must be eligible to obtain and maintain the appropriate security clearance required for this position. Details will be provided during the recruitment process.
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY We are an equal-opportunity employer committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race colour religion sex national origin disability or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.
