Rootsystem Process Engineering

Join a growing team with the opportunity to shape manufacturing standards, improve global production sites, and help define how Vestas engineers its future blade manufacturing processes. Bring your ideas to life as you work on demanding engineering challenges with global reach.

Technology & Operations > Manufacturing > Blades PE Root Systems

Come join the new Vestas Global Blades Process Engineering organization. This organization is characterized as a co-located & process engineering team focused on developing and supporting the rest of the organization with subject matter experts (SMEs). An organization that embeds engineering know-how directly into the manufacturing value stream and enables faster decision-making and deeper process ownership and knowledge. It all builds on a culture of excellence, innovation, and accountability.

Responsibilities

As a Process Engineer at Vestas, you will play a key role in improving the manufacturing processes for wind turbine blades. If you do not have a deep knowledge within composite materials, you will have a high motivation to get it. You will have a clear focus on modern production process technologies, drive towards standardization via process optimization to ensure process stability and capability to improve overall business performance; Safety Quality Delivery and Cost (SQDC).
Your main responsibilities:

• Design and optimizing production processes, within composite manufacturing operations and support process optimization in the manufacturing sites
• Develop Process requirements and specifications and develop and support manufacturing sites Process Industrialization and standardization
• Analysis of AS IS and future state
• Create business cases
• Use digital tools like data analytics to improve performance and make data-driven decisions
• Investigating and solving production issues using structured methods such as the 5x Whys, Fishbone Diagrams, and FMEA
• Applying continuous improvement principles using quality tools like Statistical Process Control (SPC), Lean, Six Sigma, and Kaizen to reduce waste, improve efficiency, and ensure final product quality

Qualifications

• Engineering degree (Bachelor/Master) with a manufacturing/process engineering or other related subjects
• Experience with composite materials is an advantage but not a requirement. We are particularly interested in candidates with solid manufacturing engineering foundations, a willingness to learn, and an engaged approach to solving complex challenges
• Experience in applying specialist skills to perform a range of sometimes complex and non-routine work activities to improve, change or adapt existing methods and techniques
• Demonstrating effective application of knowledge in the organization
• Experience from the automotive, aerospace, or other advanced manufacturing industries, particularly in environments focused on automation, quality excellence, and continuous improvement
• Solid understanding of manufacturing processes and automation technologies, with a focus on improving product quality, process stability, and efficiency
• Experience in applying methodical approach to issue definition and resolution. Six Sigma green or black belt is a plus

Competencies

• Ability to develop the manufacturing processes, including equipment for quality control and in-process measurement systems
• A practical approach and willingness to spend time in factory environments to understand challenges and drive sustainable solutions
• Ability to perform root cause analysis and structured problem-solving in production environments
• Knowledge of composite materials and manufacturing processes, including fiberglass, epoxy resins, coatings, and related production materials
• Solid analytical skills and a data-driven mindset, using data to identify opportunities, validate solutions, and support decision-making
• Proficiency in structured problem-solving methodologies such as 5 Whys, Fishbone Diagrams, FMEA, and other continuous improvement tools

What we offer

You’ll join an emerging global engineering team at the core of Vestas’ manufacturing transformation, where your insights and knowledge will play a key role in shaping production of technologies for a sustainable future. We offer significant opportunities for professional growth, international collaboration, and ownership of key projects across our global manufacturing network. In return for your contribution, you'll be given the freedom to innovate, develop your technical capabilities, and help shape the future direction of our manufacturing processes.
