Our client, a leading company in the life sciences and diagnostics industry, is looking for an experienced Precision Dispensing / Process Engineer to support manufacturing operations at its site in Rotkreuz. The role focuses on applying hands-on precision dispensing expertise directly on the production floor, working closely with process engineers, operators, and quality teams to stabilize manufacturing processes, minimize scrap, and improve product quality. Tasks & Responsibilities Conduct hands-on investigations across the manufacturing line to identify root causes of WIP yield loss, downtime, and dispensing-related deviations, and develop concrete remediation plans. Spend consistent time on the production floor observing manufacturing runs and working closely with operators and shift leads. Fine-tune, characterize, and troubleshoot automated precision dispensing equipment, particularly involving low-viscosity fluids, surface interactions, and tight tolerances. Plan, execute, and evaluate production-line trials using structured problem-solving methods such as DOE and root-cause analysis. Analyze sensor production and quality-control data to identify variability, monitor drifting parameters, and evaluate the effectiveness of corrective actions. Collaborate across equipment vendors, shop-floor operators, Process Engineering, Quality, and Regulatory teams to implement sustainable process improvements. Must Haves 5+ years of hands-on experience in automated precision dispensing or fluid deposition, ideally involving low-viscosity fluids. Practical experience setting up, fine-tuning, characterizing, and troubleshooting dispensing equipment/platforms. Proven experience turning technical troubleshooting into measurable manufacturing improvements, such as scrap reduction, yield improvement, or cycle-time stabilization. Comfortable working hands-on in a manufacturing environment and directly alongside shop-floor operators. Technical degree such as BSc/MSc in Process, Mechanical, Chemical, Materials, or Biomedical Engineering, or a technical/vocational qualification combined with strong relevant experience. Experience with root-cause analysis, statistical methods, and structured experimentation. Solid understanding of material properties, dispensing parameters, and equipment condition. Fluent English and minimum B2 German. Nice to Have Experience in Life Sciences, Medical Devices, Diagnostics, or another regulated Gx P/GMP manufacturing environment. Experience with sensor manufacturing, particularly electrochemical or analytical sensors, microassembly, functional coating, or cartridge assembly. Experience with deviation investigations, CAPAs, and technical change controls. Experience using data and statistical tools for process monitoring and troubleshooting. Previous experience working with precision dispensing equipment vendors or automated system integrators.
