Full job description

The Opportunity
We are looking for an enthusiastic and adaptable Production Engineer to support the transition of new products into production, while ensuring the ongoing delivery of high-quality products for our international customers.

This role will focus on the later stages of New Product Introduction (NPI), primarily from sample builds through to production ramp-up and release. The successful candidate will play a key role in ensuring products are robust, repeatable, and ready for production.

Following successful introduction, the role will transition into a Production Engineering position with ownership of those product lines as the Subject Matter Expert (SME), supporting ongoing production, continuous improvement, and quality performance.

Security Vetting Information

OpenWorks Engineering operates within the defence sector. As part of our recruitment and onboarding processes, we collect information that may be required to support future security vetting and clearance requirements, should these become necessary during employment.

Who We Are

OpenWorks is a rapidly growing business operating globally with a passion for exceptional engineering and building on a legacy of defence innovation in the North East of England.

Our products provide ultra-high performance, real-time detection, tracking, identification and targeting of dynamic aerial threats. They have been deployed internationally to protect high profile military and civilian assets, and contribute towards the defeat of nuisance, misguided and maliciously deployed drones during operations.

We are very proud to have supported a wide range of law enforcement and military operators, protecting many of the most high profile sites and individuals around the world.

The amazing things we do are only possible because of a dedicated and passionate team.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us

Join a high-energy, collaborative team where great ideas thrive, challenges are embraced, and people genuinely love what they do.

Here’s what our benefits have to offer:

Rewarding Success - Competitive salary and bonus package, with performance bonuses of up to 25% and clear opportunities for career progression.

Enhanced Pension – Up to 8% employer-matched contributions to help you plan for the future.

More Time to Recharge – 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, long-service rewards, and the option to buy up to 5 extra days.

Breakfast & Lunch on Us – Enjoy team breakfasts and freshly prepared lunches every day courtesy of Chef Mark and his team.

Health & Wellbeing – Private healthcare and life assurance for added peace of mind.

Sustainable Travel – Salary sacrifice schemes, including EV car and Cycle to Work options.

Team Socials – Regular events, from quiz nights and football to board games and more.

Learning & Growth – A culture that empowers you to challenge, grow and make an impact, plus a £250 annual learning budget to invest in the development that matters most to you.

What you’ll be doing:

Support the transition of new products into production, from sample builds through to volume manufacture
Lead and support sample builds, pilot builds and early production runs, ensuring issues are captured, tracked and resolved
Develop, refine and release production-ready build documentation, processes and test procedures
Identify build, test and process issues during NPI and implement practical solutions to ensure production readiness
Provide feedback to design teams on manufacturability and ease of assembly (no design ownership)
Define and implement in-line validation and test activities for new assemblies
Ensure products meet quality, repeatability and throughput requirements prior to production release

Production Engineering & Sustaining (Post-Release Ownership)

Act as the Subject Matter Expert (SME) for assigned product lines

Provide hands-on support to production technicians during build, test and fault-finding activities
Identify opportunities to improve production efficiency, yield and quality
Investigate production yield, scrap and rework trends and implement corrective actions
Solve production issues using structured root-cause analysis methodologies (e.g. 5-Why, A3, 8D)
Support the creation and maintenance of build instructions, processes and standards of work
Design and develop jigs, fixtures and tooling to support build and test activities
Support the specification, commissioning and optimisation of production and FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) equipment
Drive continuous improvement of manufacturing processes to support stable and efficient production

What we’re looking for:

Strongly process and quality driven, with a focus on repeatability and robustness
Experienced in production environments and hands-on product builds
Comfortable working in fast-paced, evolving NPI environments at the production readiness stage
A proactive problem solver with a structured and analytical approach
Highly detail-oriented with strong organisational skills
A confident communicator, able to work effectively with production, quality and design teams
Highly computer literate

Skills & Experience

We are open to candidates with a mix of Mechanical and Electrical and experience.

Mechanical (Desirable)

Understanding of materials, coatings and manufacturing processes

Ability to read and interpret electronic circuit diagrams
Strong understanding of PCBAs and electronic components
Experience working to IPC standards
Experience using electronic test equipment (e.g. multimeter, oscilloscope)
Knowledge of communication protocols (e.g. RS232, RS422, CAN)

Other Desirable Attributes:

A relevant Engineering qualification - Level 5 or above.
Lean Six Sigma Green Belt or above
Project Management qualification/ experience
