Job Summary
SAEKI - Manufacturing at software speed
Europes defense industrial base cannot respond at the speed modern conflict requires. Legacy suppliers operate on month-long timelines. Tribal knowledge is retiring. Supply chains are fragile. SAEKI is building the operating system for autonomous factories the infrastructure that lets Europe manufacture mission-critical components at software speed.
Youll own the quality assurance and metrology infrastructure of Factory ONE the measurement systems inspection processes and quality management framework that give our aerospace and defense customers absolute confidence in every part we ship.
