Permanent position · Kitzingen

Technical Project Manager Cable Systems & Electrical Engineering (m/f/d)

  • Key position
  • Development prospects
  • Overall technical responsibility

Not everyone is looking for a job. Some are looking for a task. A task you grow into over the years. A task in which you take on responsibility. A task where you do not just handle one small part, but understand how everything fits together. That is exactly the person we are looking for.

We are Powertune Spezialkabelsysteme in Kitzingen. We develop and manufacture customised cable systems, wiring harnesses and electrical assemblies for customers in industry, special vehicle manufacturing, robotics, mechanical engineering, aerospace and other demanding sectors.

For this position we are not looking for a typical office clerk, nor for someone who only draws in CAD. We are looking for someone who is willing to work their way step by step into the technical core of our company and to take on a central role in technical project planning and customer support over the long term.

What this is really about

Every project begins with an idea, a drawing, a sample or a customer enquiry. From this information we create real products that are later used all over the world. Along the way, technical requirements have to be understood, components identified, bills of materials created, prices calculated, designs drawn up, manufacturing documents produced and production processes prepared.

This is exactly where you come in. You see projects through from the first customer enquiry to finished production.

Your area of responsibility

  • Technical assessment of customer enquiries and projects
  • Analysis of drawings, samples and technical documents
  • Identification and selection of suitable components
  • Creation and maintenance of bills of materials
  • Costing of technical projects
  • Preparing quotations and coordinating technical details with customers
  • Design of cable systems and wiring harnesses
  • Creation of manufacturing documents
  • Building up and maintaining technical libraries
  • Transfer of technical data into ERP and MES systems
  • Support for ongoing projects and technical changes
  • Support for production on technical questions
  • Contributing to process improvements and standardisation

You work on several projects at the same time and are an important interface between customers, design engineering, production planning, purchasing and production.

Who we are looking for

This role is probably right for you if you want to understand how things work technically and enjoy solving problems. You do not have to know all the systems we use already. Far more important are:

  • Technical understanding
  • Analytical thinking
  • Willingness to learn
  • Structured way of working
  • Personal responsibility
  • Reliability
  • Interest in electrical engineering and technical products

Applicants from these fields are particularly interesting:

  • Electrical engineering
  • Mechatronics
  • Technical product design
  • Technical systems planning
  • Design engineering
  • Production planning
  • Project management
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Special vehicle manufacturing

What makes this role special

This position is not an ordinary skilled worker role. Our aim is to build up technical knowledge over the long term, to pass it on and to develop it further together. You gain insight into every technical process in our company and work directly on the projects that are later realised in our production.

As your experience grows, you take on more and more responsibility and develop step by step into a central technical contact within the company.

What we offer you

  • Working directly with the management
  • Thorough induction into our systems and processes
  • Exciting technical projects from a wide range of industries
  • A modern software and system landscape
  • Flexible working hours
  • Short decision making paths
  • A high degree of personal responsibility
  • Long term development prospects
  • A secure job in a growing company
  • Performance based pay with development opportunities

Responsibility, development and prospects

This role is set up as a long term key position within our company. Our aim is to develop someone who takes on more and more technical responsibility step by step and grows into a central technical contact for customers, projects, design engineering and production.

As responsibility grows, so do the professional opportunities and the financial prospects. For applicants who are prepared to work their way deeply into technical subjects, to take on responsibility and to grow with the company over the long term, we offer exceptional opportunities to develop and to earn.

Important

This role is aimed at people who want to work their way deeply into technical subjects and who want to take on responsibility over the long term. If you are simply looking for a place to work, there are probably more suitable positions.

But if you want to understand how a customer idea turns into a finished product and would like to develop into a key technical employee over the long term, we look forward to your application.
