The role is also responsible for applying knowledge to the development of products and designs that support the product development and product goals of EOS DS. \nThe Production Engineer requires engineering technical knowledge within or across specialist disciplines and the ability to work under general direction to apply strategic alignment, adherence to governance and standards and interacting with people in cross functional teams to achieve business outcomes with the appropriate levels of integrity, safety, and ethics of these designs is critical to the role.\nSpecific Functions & Tasks\nProvide production engineering support to the manufacturing group.\nSupport other work groups within EOSDS to ensure that relevant issues associated with bedding down in manufacturing new products and processes are managed.\nProvide support to engineering development to ensure production requirements are raised and resolved in the design phase as required to ensure efficient production.\nUndertake the design and development of the production files, aid jigs and fixtures.\nUndertake the development of production procedures for new products.\nCoordinate, monitor and analyse production metrics. Use metrics to minimise production of parts out of specification.\nUndertake an evaluation/analysis and suggest improvements to production procedures and workflows.\nMentor Production staff in support of production objectives.\nProvide production capacity support when available.\nMonitor and report any WHS or security issues to the Lead Production Engineer.\nAdhere to and ensure understanding and compliance with company procedures to achieve a safe and secure work environment.\nAssist in implementation of Lean manufacturing practises to develop preparing VSM\nOther duties as required.\nStrategy and Architecture\nApply strategy for emerging, new, and current technologies, products, services within Defence Systems and provide support for the innovation and delivery practices required to assure the implementation of this strategy.\nAssess and apply engineering methods and tools in specific domains, defence system knowledge, and engineering best practice to maintain competitive advantage, exploit EOS DS technologies and recommend how to minimise exposure and risk.\nCommunicate, advocate and influence stakeholders through effective negotiation and communication while fostering an environment of innovation, learning and continuous improvement within and outside the organisation.\nDevelopment and implementation of Engineering\nSelf-initiated and managed under limited direction and governance to be responsible for demonstrably leading self to produce designs and products that satisfy defined requirements in the specified time frames and meet group objectives. Undertake cohesive best practice designs and analysis and develop efficient work practices to support product development activities and business outcomes.\nUnderstand and apply the routine use of rigorous development and problem-solving methods to apply safe, secure, and reliable solutions to engineering problems.\nWork collaboratively with engineers across functional teams to solve complex problems as a team and ensure all requirements are identified, captured, and analysed such that the design/product can be developed that satisfies the safety, quality, policy, legislative and design authority requirements.\nUndertake clear and pragmatic tests, evaluation and verification activities on integrated system designs and prototypes (including formal check points) to verify and provide recommendations for sign-off of all design requirements to the lead engineer and Design Authorities based on relevant legislative requirements, standards, and contracts.\nPrepare and review all documentation at the team levels that is required to support designs and provide tailored advice and recommendations to teams and decision makers\nRelationship and engagement\nActively listen, share knowledge and experience, provide guidance and mentorship, and work collaboratively to support teams across engineering and other relevant internal and external customers to deliver engineering and business outcomes.\nWork with Production Engineers and Technicians to apply and ensure the best design solutions are delivered to solve production problems and obtain business outcomes under the broad direction of the Chief Engineer. \nInteract with EOS Executive, Project Managers, and Project Engineers to ensure design solutions are delivered on time and on budget and meet other project management requirements.\nCommunicate insights and provide strong engineering judgement for progress and the advancement of sound engineering solutions.\nDelivery and operation\nInterpret the design and execution of user acceptance testing and other verification activities to provide recommendations to the Chief Engineer and other Design Authorities.\nSupport production and review manufacturing and supplier requirements to meet specified timeframes, engineering standards, and business outcomes.\nPeople and skills\nWork and interacts with people in cross functional multidisciplinary teams to solve routine engineering problems and solutions.\nExperience and Qualification\nBachelor's degree in engineering or equivalent technical training / experience.\nMinimum 3 years’ experience in a production/engineering related role is essential. \nThe ability to understand, communicate effectively influence in order to implement business requirements.\nExperience with multi-disciplinary teams in a structured product.\nA collaborative mindset, with excellent communication skills and a passion and aptitude for problem solving. development or project engineering environment is desirable.\nExperience in Defence sector is
