The Building Practice Engineer will lead manufacturing activities, assess manufacturability of antenna designs, and collaborate on process development and validation.
Join our Team
About this opportunity
The Manufacturing & Test Technology organization is an integral part of the R&D and Industrialization function within a mobile communication antenna company. We focus on validation, verification and industrialization of antenna products and components, and develop advanced antenna test and manufacturing technologies.
As a Building Practice Engineer you will own and drive the building practice for mobile communication antennas from early opportunity analysis through validated, production-ready processes. The role focuses on scouting and selecting appropriate manufacturing technologies, developing processes and interfaces, and verifying those solutions to achieve cost-efficient, robust and scalable manufacturing. You will work across R&D, design, industrialization, test, production and suppliers to ensure designs can be manufactured predictably and at target cost and quality.

What you will do
- Lead building practice activities from opportunity analysis and concept evaluation to validated manufacturing process handover.
- Assess manufacturability of new antenna concepts and propose preferred manufacturing routes with attention to cost, yield, cycle time and quality.
- Create and maintain process documentation
- Support DFMA, D- & P-FMEA reviews in early design phases and provide constructive design-for-manufacture guidance to product designers and RF engineers.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (R&D, Test & Verification, Quality, Sourcing, Production Engineering) and with external suppliers to industrialize components and processes.
You will bring
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Production/Process Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Materials Engineering, or related discipline.
- Practical experience in manufacturing/process development, ideally in electronics, RF, metal/plastics fabrication or high-volume assembly and strong understanding of manufacturing technologies
- Experience with DFMA/DFX, process validation, capability studies, FMEA, DOE and quality methods.
- Competence in CAD (SolidWorks/Creo/etc.), and familiarity with process simulation or CAM is an advantage.
- Data-driven and analytical with experience in collecting and analysing process and test data.
- Good interpersonal and communication skills; proven ability to work in multidisciplinary teams and to communicate process needs to designers, suppliers and production.
- Structured, result-oriented approach and hands-on mindset; willingness to work in lab, prototype and production environments.
- Proficiency in English, both written and spoken. German language skills are a plus
