As an MTM / STV Process Engineer, you are responsible for developing, validating, and optimizing standard manufacturing times using MTM methodologies and STV standards. You support production teams, improve industrial performance, and ensure that work instructions and planning data reflect accurate, efficient, and safe production processes.
Key Responsibilities
- Perform MTM-based time studies and generate STV standard time calculations for assembly and manufacturing operations.
- Analyze manual and semi-automated processes to identify inefficiencies, bottlenecks, and improvement opportunities.
- Support production, industrial engineering, and planning teams by providing accurate and validated standard times for all tasks.
- Evaluate the time impact of design changes, process modifications, or tooling updates on production performance.
- Develop, maintain, and improve calculation methods, time modules, and MTM datasets used across manufacturing programs.
- Create and update work instructions, operation sheets, and manufacturing documentation based on validated time standards.
- Contribute to lean manufacturing initiatives by proposing optimization measures, workload balancing, and reduction of non-value-added activities.
- Conduct shop-floor observations and collaborate closely with operators, supervisors, and method engineers to ensure compliance between real operations and standard time data.
- Prepare reports, dashboards, and presentations related to MTM/STV performance, productivity, and improvement actions.
- Ensure alignment with industrial standards, safety requirements, and continuous improvement strategies.
Qualifications
- Degree in Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a similar technical field.
- Proven experience with MTM methodologies.
- Certifications: MTM-1 Practitioner, MTM-UAS Practitioner, MTM-MEK (for assembly processes); optional REFA Work Design & Work Measurement; optional Lean Six Sigma Yellow or Green Belt; optional TiCon MTM Certification.
- Strong understanding of STV standard time values, work measurement, and industrial time analysis.
- Proficiency with MTM/industrial engineering tools (e.g., TiCon, SAP, Google Workspace, Excel/Sheets).
- Knowledge of manufacturing processes, assembly operations, and lean/continuous improvement principles.
- Ability to work cross-functionally with production, engineering, and quality teams.
- Analytical mindset, attention to detail, and strong communication skills.
- Fluent in German and English; additional French language is a plus.
Key Achievements
- Reduced standard time deviations through improved MTM analysis and process alignment.
- Implemented STV time standards across several production lines, improving planning accuracy and workload balancing.
- Identified and eliminated non-value-added time through shop-floor optimization and lean actions.
- Developed new MTM modules that increased calculation efficiency.
Benefits
- Positive work environment that values diversity and collaboration.
- Dynamic team culture with a multicultural focus.
- Seamless integration process and support from day one.
- Contribution to HVV Proficard for commuting.
- Personal development support and active promotion of growth.
- Generous time off: 28 holidays per year and flexible working time account.
- Financial security: company retirement savings plan.
- Fitness perks: contribution to gym membership fees.
- Corporate benefits: exclusive perks and discounts.
