About the job
Mechanical Engineer – Food & Beverage Systems
At our development centre in Wil SG, we realise technical products for startups, SMEs as well as global companies – from medical and laboratory technology to household appliances and industrial products. For demanding development projects in the field of Food & Beverage Systems, we are looking for a qualified individual.
Area of Responsibility
As an experienced Mechanical Engineer with a passion for interdisciplinary product development, you will develop innovative devices and systems together with our teams, from the idea to series production. Your focus is on the design, dimensioning and construction of mechanical and mechatronic components and systems. You contribute your own ideas and independently develop technical concepts and solutions.
You independently take on demanding technical work packages and develop viable concepts from customer requirements. You design these, implement them constructively and optimise them based on prototypes and tests, iteratively until a series-ready solution is achieved. In doing so, you consider the interfaces with other disciplines and keep an eye on the function of the overall system. You analyse and solve technical challenges systematically and pragmatically. In close collaboration with our project teams and customers, you develop solutions that meet both technical and economic requirements equally.
