Manufacturing Support Technician

Job type Permanent

Role Overview

Dynamic EMS requires a Manufacturing Support Technician to bridge the production floor and engineering function. This cross-functional role covers process documentation, first-line equipment support, tooling management and continuous improvement. As Dynamic EMS scales, technically capable floor support — someone who can both run a station and improve how it runs — is critical. The role suits someone who has outgrown a pure operator position and wants to contribute to how the business is built, not just how it runs.

Key Responsibilities

→Create, maintain and update work instructions, process sheets and standard operating procedures
→Manage tooling, jigs and fixtures: track, maintain, repair and requisition replacements
→Support NPI from prototype to production release
→Identify process inefficiencies; propose and implement improvements with the Production Manager
→First-line maintenance on production equipment: mechanical adjustments, calibration, sensor checks
→Support quality investigations with accurate floor observations
→Participate in daily stand-ups; provide clean shift handovers

Essential Requirements

→Minimum 2 years’ experience in a manufacturing or electronics production environment
→Experience writing or maintaining work instructions and process documentation
→Practical understanding of production machinery: setup, operation and basic first-line maintenance
→Methodical and detail-oriented; able to follow and enforce standard work
→Safety-conscious; familiar with PPE use, machine guarding and LOTO

Desirable Requirements

→Electronics manufacturing or EMS background
→IPC-A-610 awareness or certification
→Lean or CI methodology (5S, Kaizen)
→MES/ERP experience in a manufacturing context
→HNC/HND in Manufacturing Engineering or equivalent
