The posting

Help build and mature a growing manufacturing operation in Malaysia while delivering smarter, more efficient outcomes in a highly regulated aerospace and defence environment.

Based in Malaysia, this is an opportunity to join a growing manufacturing operation in the early stages of its development. We are seeking an experienced, practical and improvement-focused Production Engineer who can establish robust manufacturing processes, develop tooling, jigs and fixtures, and help build the site's engineering capability as operations scale.

The Engineering Manager and broader engineering team are based in Australia, so you will collaborate closely across locations while providing experienced, hands-on engineering support on site in Malaysia. Working alongside an existing local engineer, you will lead complex technical delivery, solve manufacturing challenges and help strengthen local engineering capability as the operation grows.

What you’ll do

  • Identify and implement manufacturing improvements that enhance productivity, quality, safety and delivery.
  • Develop and refine manufacturing methods, jigs, fixtures, tooling and processes.
  • Optimise the use of manufacturing and test equipment, reducing downtime and waste.
  • Support electro-mechanical, electrical, wire harness and cable assembly operations.
  • Partner with production teams to resolve build issues and establish practical, repeatable and compliant assembly processes.
  • Support new product introduction and process changes through structured change control.
  • Contribute to process controls, root cause investigations and corrective actions.
  • Manage multiple improvement and tooling activities to agreed time, cost and quality expectations.

What you’ll bring

  • A degree or equivalent experience in mechatronics, mechanical, electrical or a related engineering discipline.
  • Strong knowledge of manufacturing processes, equipment, tooling and assembly methods.
  • Experience developing and implementing jigs, fixtures or manufacturing tools.
  • Sufficient depth of experience to provide local technical leadership, independently resolve complex manufacturing issues and support the development of engineering capability in Malaysia.
  • A hands-on approach and the ability to work effectively with shop-floor production teams.
  • The ability to collaborate effectively with an Engineering Manager and team based in Australia.
  • Strong analytical and structured problem-solving skills.
  • Professional written and verbal English communication skills.

Desirable experience

  • Experience in aerospace, defence, electronics or another highly regulated manufacturing environment.
  • Experience with electrical or electro-mechanical assemblies, including wire harness or cable assembly.
  • Working knowledge of IPC-A-620/IPC-WHMA, AS9100, DEF-STAN or similar standards.
  • Experience supporting new product introduction, industrialisation or process validation.
  • CAD capability relevant to tooling, fixture or process concept development.
  • Exposure to quality tools such as APQP, Process FMEAs, SPC, MSA, 8D or PPAP.

About you

You are organised, methodical and detail-focused, with a practical engineering mindset and the ability to influence across teams. You are comfortable working across mechanical and electrical disciplines, managing competing priorities and turning improvement opportunities into reliable manufacturing outcomes.

If you are ready to take ownership of complex manufacturing challenges, strengthen local engineering capability and contribute to the growth of our Malaysia operation, we encourage you to apply.

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.
