Production Engineer Lead

We’re looking for a senior, hands-on Production Engineering Lead to take full ownership of production scale-up, quality and manufacturing architecture - and to become a core member of the leadership team.

This is a full-time, on-site leadership role in Stockholm. Combining meaningful equity with a competitive salary.

• Scale production from early-stage to full production, you’ll own the entire production system end-to-end - not just “support” it
• Build quality control, test plans and failure analysis workflows
• Define the manufacturing approach: processes, tooling strategy, fixtures, test architecture, supplier setup
• Establish quality control processes and testing procedures
• Build engineering workflows, what you build becomes the standard operating model and factory playbook.
• Lead and grow the engineering function over time (manage current engineers and recruit as needed)
• Direct collaboration with founders on roadmap, priorities and trade-offs
• Ensure alignment between product development, sales and operations

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Mechatronics or related field)
• 5+ years of experience in hardware product development (mechatronics, robotics, IoT or similar fields)
• Proven track record scaling hardware products from prototype to production
• Strong hands-on technical skills, comfortable in designing, prototyping and troubleshooting
• Experience managing and growing engineering teams
• Bonus if you’ve worked with: connected devices, embedded systems, AI-powered hardware
• Knowledge of manufacturing processes and tooling for mass production (injection molding, 3D printing, electronics assembly, fixtures, molds)
• Bonus if you’ve owned regulatory/compliance (CE marking, safety certifications)
• Startup/scale-up experience is a plus - you’ve built under uncertainty and delivered anyway
• English fluency

• Production is stable, predictable and scalable
• Quality metrics are defined, measured and improving
• Test/QA is systematic
• Suppliers/tooling/processes are set up for scale
• Engineering cadence is tight and cross-functional alignment is working
