About the Role
As a Project Engineer you will support the execution of automation development projects across IKEA Industry factories. Your responsibilities will include project coordination documentation preparation technical follow-up and supporting installations and commissioning of automation systems.
The role is based at the Manufacturing Development Center (MDC) in Zbąszyń where interdisciplinary engineering teams co-create innovative production technologies for IKEA Industry.
Location: Manufacturing Development Center (MDC) Zbąszyń
Key Responsibilities
- Coordinate project activities within automation and robotics development initiatives.
- Support project planning scheduling monitoring and reporting.
- Prepare and review technical documentation layouts process descriptions and risk assessments.
- Work closely with Automation Engineers Robotics Engineers product development and factory teams.
- Support on-site installation commissioning testing and ramp-up of automation solutions.
- Facilitate communication with vendors system integrators and internal stakeholders.
- Identify deviations risks and support corrective and preventive actions.
- Support knowledge sharing lessons learned and development of engineering standards.
