Job Description: Production Engineer
Company Overview
Middle East Mattress Factory Co. is the exclusive licensee of Sealy mattresses in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the MENA region. Operating from our advanced production plant in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, we manufacture world-class sleep systems utilizing cutting-edge automated machinery and industry-leading comfort technologies.
Position Purpose
We are seeking a detail-oriented and technically skilled Production Engineer to optimize and supervise our daily mattress manufacturing processes in Jeddah. In this role, you will be the technical backbone of the shop floor, bridging the gap between design specifications and physical production. You will focus on maximizing machine uptime, implementing lean practices, reducing material scrap, and ensuring that our assembly lines run flawlessly.
Key Responsibilities
- Process Supervision & Optimization: Supervise daily mattress manufacturing workflows-including quilting, quilting patterns, pocket spring production, foam cutting, tape-edging, and final inspection lines.
- ERP Data Integrity & BOM Management: Maintain and verify complex Bills of Materials (BOM) and routing protocols within the Odoo ERP system. Route shop floor data accurately and audit material variances to prevent discrepancies.
- Continuous Improvement & Lean Manufacturing: Identify bottlenecks on the assembly lines. Apply time-and-motion studies and lean manufacturing principles to improve Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and eliminate raw material waste.
- Equipment Coordination & Troubleshooting: Work hand-in-hand with the maintenance team to oversee specialized automated mattress machinery (e.g., automated sewing, pocket-coil, and tape-edge machines). Troubleshoot process deviations immediately to minimize downtime.
- Quality & Standards Compliance: Monitor shop floor quality control practices. Ensure that foam, fiber, and spring components meet technical blueprints and premium brand standards before moving to packaging.
- Shift & Worker Coordination: Instruct, assign daily tasks to, and monitor technicians and line operators to ensure shift targets are safely and efficiently achieved.
Requirements

- Software & Technical Skills: High proficiency in engineering concepts and hands-on experience with Odoo ERP (or similar manufacturing software modules).
- Language Skills: Professional fluency in spoken and written English is required. Working knowledge of Arabic or Hindi/Urdu is highly valued for daily team communication.

- Must currently reside in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
