Design Engineer

Would you like to design and shape industrial systems?  Are you ready for new challenges in an exciting international environment? Our Design and Software Engineering team is looking for a Design Engineer to join us on 1 May 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter. Become part of a motivated global team dedicated to developing advanced industrial solutions that enhance machine functionality and efficiency.

As a Design Engineer, you will be responsible for designing machines for filling, checking, inspection, and maintenance of gas cylinders.

With support from your team, you will independently make decisions related to the development and improvement of machines. You will collaborate with our Sales and Project Management departments, ensuring that machines are tailored to customer needs and delivered according to specifications.

Additionally, you will also play a key role in delivering machines worldwide. Initially, you will be part of a small team focusing on product responsibility, supporting a dedicated product team.

At MAKEEN Energy, we develop our own products and systems that facilitate remote control and intelligent management.

As a Design Engineer, your main responsibilities will include:

• Technical design: develop 3D/2D drawings using the Inventor Vault system and Cool Orange (integrated with IFS (ERP system)).
• Product responsibility: oversee and maintain systems, ensuring they are up to date and aligned with customer requirements.
• Technical documentation: Maintain and update Bill of Materials (BOM), 3D/2D machine documentation, datasheets and service documentation, user and installation guides, validate and provide input for service manuals, handle NCR (Non-Conformance Reports)
• Technical support: communicate with supervisors regarding technical challenges and solutions. Support manufacturing and production units in Sri Lanka and France.
• Conduct necessary searches in IFS (ERP) to support design and manufacturing.
• Risk assessment: approve machines for implementation and ensure compliance with safety and quality standards
• Work with Project Management (PM) in kickoff meetings and throughout the design phase

We expect you to:

• Have technical expertise and experience with 3D/2D CAD drawing.
• Have knowledge and experience in machine design and documentation.
• Be able to prioritise tasks based on project needs and deadlines.
• Be able to manage multiple product responsibility areas (with time).
• Be fluent in English, both written and verbal.
• Familiarity with mechanical components used in industrial machinery is a plus but not required.

As a person, you:

• Are proactive, responsible, and capable of working independently.
• Work effectively in both small and bigger teams.
• Approach tasks methodically with attention to detail.
• Are open-minded and flexible, welcoming new ideas and adapting to change.
• Focus on delivering meaningful results with every task.
• Demonstrate integrity and professionalism in all actions.
• Have a customer-oriented mindset
• Thrive in an international environment with diverse challenges.
• Can adapt and collaborate in a specialised field with varying requirements.
  
  

We don’t expect applicants to meet 100% of the criteria above—you may have valuable skills we haven’t even thought of. If this role excites you, we encourage you to apply, regardless of your background.

To succeed in this role, you should gain sufficient knowledge to operate independently within specific product responsibility areas, while gradually taking on more responsibility for product management and actively contributing to development. We also see you becoming well-integrated in our matrix organisation, collaborating effectively with your team and contributing to innovation.

You will join an informal working environment with room for people of all kinds and backgrounds. Your new colleagues in the Design and Software Engineering team are looking forward to welcoming you and share their knowledge. In your first weeks here, you will participate in a detailed onboarding and introduction process. You will have access to an array of benefits, such as:

• Health and accident insurance
• A healthy and tasty lunch and breakfast buffet
• Access to fitness facilities
• and much more.

We enjoy each other’s company and often get together outside of work for social activities such as padel, football and more.

The position is a full-time, permanent role. Your place of work will be Alsvej 21, Randers, Denmark, with a possibility of working from home 1-2 days per week. Travel days may occur.

The start date is 1 May 2025, or as soon as possible thereafter. For any further questions about the position, please contact Head of Design and Software Engineering, Peter Bruun Jensen, email: pbj@makeenenergy.com, tel. +45 87403027.
