Stack Manufacturing Engineer

Ceres Power is a global leader in solid oxide technology, driving the clean energy revolution. Our steel-supported fuel cell and electrolyser technology gives partners a decade of development advantage, accelerating innovation in power generation, green hydrogen, and distributed power solutions for data centres. Trusted by some of the world’s most progressive companies, our proven designs deliver efficient, low-cost solutions backed by over 5 million test hours. At Ceres, innovation is in our DNA. Join us and be part of a world-class team making a positive impact on the planet.

Purpose of the role:

As a Stack Manufacturing Engineer, you will play a key role in developing, implementing and continuously improving the manufacturing processes, equipment and tooling used in the production of fuel cell and electrolyser stacks. Working closely with Production, Design, Quality, Test, Systems and Supply Chain teams, as well as external partners, you will support new product introduction (NPI), industrialisation, technology transfer and day-to-day manufacturing operations, ensuring safe, capable and cost-effective processes that consistently deliver high-quality products across Ceres and partner manufacturing sites.

You will lead manufacturing engineering activities through the full NPI lifecycle, provide production engineering support by resolving technical issues and driving root cause corrective actions, and specify, commission, validate and optimise manufacturing equipment and tooling. Applying Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA) principles, you will enhance product manufacturability and production efficiency, while developing and maintaining manufacturing documentation including work instructions, process specifications, PFMEAs and control plans. Using data-driven techniques such as SPC, Cp/Cpk and process capability analysis, you will monitor and improve manufacturing performance, support the creation of manufacturing document packs for strategic partners, and ensure manufacturing processes are successfully scaled from prototype development through to high-volume production.

Knowledge and skills required:

• Degree qualified in Mechanical, Manufacturing or related Engineering discipline
• Strong understanding of manufacturing engineering principles, industrialisation and new product introduction (NPI)
• Experience developing and improving manufacturing processes, tooling and equipment
• Knowledge of Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA), PFMEA, process mapping and error-proofing techniques
• Experience applying statistical and quality tools including SPC, Cp/Cpk and Gauge R&R
• Ability to lead structured problem solving and root cause investigations within cross-functional teams
• Experience creating and maintaining manufacturing documentation, including work instructions and process specifications
• Knowledge of equipment specification, commissioning, validation and process capability assessment
• Proactive, hands-on approach with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Competent with standard engineering and Microsoft Office software tools
