The Impact You'll Make
As our Manufacturing Engineer, you'll play a key role in developing capable, efficient, and reliable manufacturing processes
that meet customer requirements while improving quality, productivity, and cost performance.
At Danfoss, you'll have opportunities to expand your expertise in machining, assembly, process design, and continuous
improvement while collaborating in an inclusive environment that values learning, growth, well-being, innovation, and
teamwork.
Your impact? You'll help translate product requirements into robust manufacturing solutions, improve process capability,
reduce operational cost, and support the successful introduction of new products, tools, fixtures, and equipment.
You'll collaborate with Production, Quality, Engineering, Operations, and technical partners across the factory, taking
ownership of process definition, manufacturing documentation, risk reduction, and continuous improvement.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Develop and continuously improve machining and assembly processes, defining operating conditions, sequences,
parameters, and standard methods that support safe, capable, and efficient production. - Create and optimize CNC machining programs, tooling concepts, clamping and checking devices, dimensions,
tolerances, and process designs that meet product specifications and manufacturing requirements. - Lead manufacturing risk and quality-planning activities, including Process FMEA, special-characteristic selection,
process capability, MSA inputs, and alignment with ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 requirements. - Support new-product and capital initiatives by preparing technical studies, process estimates, equipment and tooling
requirements, and manufacturing solutions that strengthen launch readiness. - Drive continuous improvement through Kaizen, cost-out, Lean tools, equipment and process modifications, bottleneck
reduction, and year-over-year improvements in quality, productivity, and operational cost.
What We're Looking For
- A bachelor's degree in Electromechanical, Industrial, Mechanical, Mechatronics Engineering, or a related technical field.
- Experience supporting manufacturing engineering, machining, assembly, or metal-mechanical processes, with the ability
to translate technical requirements into practical production solutions. - Working knowledge of CNC programming, CAD, GD&T;, cutting tools, cutting conditions, clamping systems, and
manufacturing-process design. - Familiarity with Process FMEA, special characteristics, MSA, ISO 9001, IATF 16949, and structured problem-solving or
continuous-improvement methods. - English skills that support technical collaboration, combined with an analytical, detail-oriented, customer-focused, and
improvement-driven mindset.
What You'll Get from Us
- We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
- You’ll have flexibility, autonomy, and support to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Your well-being matters to us.
- We strive to create an inclusive work environment where people of all backgrounds are respected, and valued for who they are.
- You’ll receive benefits like 13th salary, annual bonus, paid vacation, pension plans, personal insurance, and more. These vary by country and contract, but they’re worth asking about—we think they’re pretty great.
