Tasks:

• Finalization of manufacturing drawings
• Communication with sponsors and manufacturing partners
• Organization of raw materials and semi-finished stock
• Definition of tolerances and fits
• Workshop organization and process structuring

Profile:

• Strong technical understanding of manufacturing processes and tolerancing
• Experience with technical drawings and GD&T principles
• Structured and solution-oriented working style
• Confident and professional communication with external partners

What awaits you:

As Manufacturing & Workshop Lead, you are responsible for turning our designs into precise, high-quality components. You ensure that our concepts are not only theoretically sound but also optimized for manufacturability and delivered on schedule.

Your responsibilities include finalizing manufacturing drawings with proper dimensioning, tolerances, and material specifications. You define appropriate fits, surface requirements, and technical details to ensure that parts can be produced without unnecessary iterations. In close collaboration with the CAD and Structural teams, you translate development work into production-ready documentation.

Another key aspect of your role is managing raw materials and manufacturing resources. You coordinate material orders, monitor stock levels, and maintain direct communication with production partners and sponsors. Professional communication and reliable coordination are essential in this position.

In addition, you take ownership of workshop organization. You structure workflows, improve efficiency, and ensure that manufacturing and assembly processes are executed cleanly and systematically.

This role requires strong organizational skills, technical understanding, and a high sense of responsibility. If you enjoy maintaining oversight and transforming development work into tangible results, this is the right position for you.

Time expenditure: At least 10 hours per Week
