Are you interested in joining a fast moving and challenging environment that aims to deliver reliable rotation? Do you like working in a committed team of enthusiastic people? So you can be our new....

There will be a variety of tasks to focus on in this role, depending on the different needs: supporting the Factory quality & process department in digitalizing tolerances/specifications on the channel, then working on developing and testing design rules for a brand new product range, creating new product ranges, understanding the factories needs, and providing valuable deliverables without being sidetracked by bureaucratic procedures.
In addition, we expect you to have
University degree in Engineering or equivalent; Good understanding of basic engineering principles, bearings & rotating systems; Good understanding of technical drawing rules and principles; Proactivity in taking the lead with a global problem-solving attitude; Proactivity in looking for new ways of working without passively accepting existing solutions; Proficiency in English verbal and written, as well as Italian; Open to travel if needed; Knowledge of Microsoft Office 365, Windchill, CREO Parametric & ANSYS will be considered a plus.
