NPI / Product Industrialization Engineer – Camera / Embedded Systems / Hardware | High Growth |[...]

Our client, one of Europe's fastest growing manufacturing companies, develops advanced opto-electronic and embedded products, including image sensors and state of the art infrared cameras used in research, aerospace, and defense.

We are looking for an experienced Product Industrialization Engineer / Camera Systems Engineer to take ownership of multidisciplinary hardware / camera products during the critical transition from R&D development to Operations.

This role requires direct experience with the industrialization of embedded hardware devices. It is not a general IT systems, software-only or production process engineering position.

Your responsibilities

• Own the product-readiness process and drive the successful transfer of assigned products from R&D into Operations.
• Define and monitor a formal “Definition of Done” with R&D, Test & Measurement, Production Engineering and other stakeholders.
• Ensure products are fully validated, documented and ready for manufacturing, including calibration methods, troubleshooting guidelines and product-level work instructions.
• Support initial product builds and pilot manufacturing, identify industrialization risks and confirm product readiness before scaling.
• Become the system-level expert for assigned products and provide second-line technical support to Operations, Field Application Engineers and customers.
• Investigate design-related issues, perform root-cause analysis and coordinate workarounds, corrective actions or minor design improvements.

Your Profile

• Master’s degree in engineering, physics or another relevant technical discipline.
• At least four years of relevant engineering experience and demonstrable experience transferring hardware / embedded products from R&D or prototype stage into production.
• Direct industrialization or NPI experience involving embedded hardware devices.
• Knowledge of electronics, FPGA, mechanics, embedded engineering is required. Experience with camera or sensor systems is an advantage.
• Hands-on experience with product validation, debugging, root-cause analysis and technical troubleshooting.
• Structured and autonomous working style, strong cross-functional communication skills and professional proficiency in English.
• Join one of Europe’s fastest-growing high-tech manufacturing groups in the future-ready field of advanced imaging and sensing technologies.
• Take on a key technical role with real ownership of advanced camera and embedded products.
• Work hands-on with cutting-edge imaging, optical, electronic and embedded technologies.
• Directly influence how innovative R&D designs become reliable, manufacturable and customer-ready products.
• Gain high visibility through close collaboration with R&D, Operations and senior technical leadership.
• Develop broad multidisciplinary expertise and become the recognized technical authority for your assigned products.
• Benefit from long-term career opportunities within a growing, international and innovation-driven organization.
