MAKO is putting 'shark skin' on planes to save fuel and reduce emissions.
Your Mission
MAKO’s mission is to improve the efficiency of the global aviation fleet, saving billions in fuel and megatonnes of CO2 every year. We are looking for a Manufacturing Specialist to drive operational excellence, lean initiatives and quality within our advanced manufacturing environment. You will report to the Production Team Lead and be responsible for the end-to-end production lifecycle of MAKO’s products, including training of others, ensuring complete traceability, preserving quality documentation, and providing valuable feedback to the Manufacturing Systems team. The typical hours for this position will be 7AM–3PM, subject to change as our manufacturing requirements evolve.
What You Will Do
Execute various production processes in accordance with the provided work instructions, compile traceability data, and ensure adherence to manufacturing schedules and priorities
Lead the management of non-conformities, ensuring they are appropriately segregated and documented within the Quality Management System (QMS). Draft quality and traceability documentation and support team members in drafting accurate, compliant non-conformity problem statements. Review peer documentation to ensure QMS compliance
Develop and implement lean tools and templates to enhance operational efficiency. Quantitatively monitor and report on the impact of manufacturing initiatives against key targets. Identify and execute opportunities to improve team processes and outputs
Lead training for team members in defined processes, ensuring full compliance with MAKO’s QMS. Coach peers on responsibilities and best practices
Facilitate discussions, anticipate questions, and provide advice on complex technical issues. Tailor communication styles to suit different audiences, ensuring clarity and effective feedback loops
Lead by example in the application of WHS processes. Conduct regular risk assessments, implement appropriate controls, and coach peers on WHS responsibilities and safe work practices
Balance competing priorities across projects and guide others on effective prioritization to meet value-adding objectives
What Success Looks Like
First Month:
Build a deep understanding of MAKO’s production processes, product architecture, Quality Management System, and WHS protocols
Review and learn current manufacturing and quality documentation
Build strong working relationships with the product engineering and Manufacturing Systems teams
First Six Months:
Take ownership of production workspaces and quality systems, ensuring consistent compliance and organization
Establish clear and regular communication surrounding production health, statistics and schedule compliance
Support coaching and mentorship of team members on best manufacturing practices and QMS requirements
First Year:
Act as the internal authority on lean manufacturing and QMS excellence, demonstrating measurable improvements in team efficiency
Support the production team through internal and external audits with high compliance standards
Establish a sustainable culture of safety and rigorous adherence to high-quality standard compliance across the facility
About You
5+ years of experience in a production or manufacturing environment, ideally within a regulated industry (aerospace, automotive, or medical)
Demonstrated experience working with Quality Management Systems (QMS), including documentation, non-conformity reporting, and audit compliance
Demonstrated analytical capability to perform root cause investigations and resolve complex technical challenges
Leadership or coaching experience, with the ability to train team members and guide others on effective prioritization
Proven track record of implementing lean manufacturing methodologies and driving continuous process improvements
Strong commitment to Workplace Health and Safety (WHS), with experience conducting risk assessments and ensuring adherence to safety protocols
Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical information for diverse audiences
You thrive in a fast-moving, ambiguous, and constantly evolving startup environment
Why You Should Join MAKO
Impact: Aviation is one of the hardest to abate industries, and its share of global emissions is only growing. Join our mission to improve the efficiency of the global fleet and save millions of tonnes of CO2 every year
Technology: Our technology leverages the drag-reducing properties of shark skin to make aircraft more efficient. You'll be exposed to expertise and developments in materials, photolithography, fluid dynamics, and scale manufacturing
Team: Our team focuses on achieving our mission. We live our values of lift over drag, active transparency, and changing the boundary conditions, and we welcome new team members who want to do the same
Corporate Jet: We have (most of) a corporate jet. It won't fly, but it sure does look cool
Join a team that is working to improve the efficiency of the global aviation fleet, and build a future where a new surface replaces the need for a new aircraft.
