ABOUT THE POSITION

Director of Manufacturing Engineering at BURGA is more than just a title - it's a mandate to build and lead the entire engineering backbone of a fast-scaling global manufacturer. You will own four critical functions: Continuous Improvement, Process Engineering, Technicians, and Technologists - and be directly accountable for turning engineering into a competitive advantage.

Your role: You’ll be driving engineering strategy, building leadership capability below you, and ensuring that every product we make — from phone cases to drinkware - is produced faster, better, and with less waste than the day before.

This is a role for someone who has already led multi-functional engineering organizations, thinks in systems, and knows how to make factories measurably better - not just operationally managed.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Own and execute BURGA's engineering strategy across CI, Process Engineering, Technicians, and Technologists functions

- Directly manage four functional heads and develop their leadership capability

- Drive measurable improvements in OEE, scrap rate, downtime, and MTTR and other KPI across all production lines

- Set engineering KPIs, hold teams accountable, and report performance at C-level

- Lead investment decisions on equipment, technology, and engineering infrastructure

- Coordinate NPD/NPLM processes together with the Projects department - ensuring new products are manufactured-ready before series launch

- Identify systemic production failures and implement structural - not symptomatic - fixes

- Participate in hiring decisions for all engineering leadership roles below you

- Build an engineering culture grounded in data, ownership, and continuous learning

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

- Engineering degree (Mechanical, Industrial, Manufacturing, or related field)

- 5+ years in manufacturing engineering, with at least 3 years in a multi-team leadership role

- Proven experience managing teams of 15+ people across multiple functions

- Lean / Six Sigma Black Belt - or equivalent demonstrated competency in practice (Optional)

- Direct budget ownership experience (>500k EUR or equivalent)

- Hands-on knowledge of OEE, SMED, VSM, FMEA, and CI methodologies - not just theoretical

- Experience in high-mix, high-volume consumer product manufacturing

- Strong data analysis skills - decisions must be evidence-based

- Ability to operate both strategically and operationally in a fast-moving environment

SALARY: 5500 - 8500 EUR GROSS/month. We’re open to discussing it based on your skills and competencies.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
