Job Summary

We are seeking a versatile and adaptable Process Engineer to support day‑to‑day operations for one of our engineering clients. The ideal candidate will work closely with cross‑functional teams to optimise processes, improve efficiency, troubleshoot operational issues, and support continuous improvement initiatives across engineering and production environments.


This role requires a hands‑on approach, strong problem‑solving skills, and the ability to operate effectively in a fast‑paced and dynamic environment.


Key Responsibilities

  • Support day‑to‑day engineering and operational activities, ensuring smooth and efficient process execution
  • Analyse existing processes to identify inefficiencies, bottlenecks, and improvement opportunities
  • Develop, document, and implement process improvements, SOPs, and work instructions
  • Monitor key process parameters and performance metrics to ensure quality, safety, and compliance
  • Collaborate with production, quality, maintenance, and engineering teams to resolve operational issues
  • Conduct root cause analysis and support corrective and preventive actions (CAPA)
  • Assist in process validation, optimization, and scaling activities
  • Support new product introductions, change management, and continuous improvement initiatives (Lean, Six Sigma, etc.)
  • Ensure compliance with applicable engineering standards, safety guidelines, and regulatory requirements
  • Provide technical support and training to operators and stakeholders as required

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Chemical, Mechanical, Industrial, Manufacturing, or related field)
  • Proven experience as a Process Engineer or similar role in an engineering, manufacturing, or operations environment
  • Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills with a practical, hands‑on approach
  • Ability to adapt quickly and manage multiple priorities in a dynamic environment
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills
  • Proficiency in process documentation, data analysis, and reporting tools
  • Understanding of continuous improvement methodologies (Lean, Six Sigma, Kaizen preferred)

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience supporting client‑facing or outsourced engineering environments
  • Familiarity with ERP/MES systems and industrial data tools
  • Lean Six Sigma certification (Green Belt or higher)
  • Experience in fast‑paced or high‑mix operational settings

Key Competencies

  • Versatility and adaptability
  • Strong operational mindset
  • Attention to detail with a focus on quality and safety
  • Continuous improvement orientation
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team

Semiconductor Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Semiconductors sit behind almost everything: smartphones, EVs, medical devices, aerospace systems, telecoms networks, cloud data centres & the AI boom. In the UK, the semiconductor ecosystem spans chip design, IP, photonics, compound semiconductors, testing, packaging, equipment, supply chain & R&D. That breadth creates real opportunities for career switchers in their 30s, 40s & 50s, especially if you target roles where experience, process discipline & delivery skills matter as much as deep device physics. This article gives you a UK reality check: what semiconductor jobs actually look like, which roles are realistic for career switchers, what skills employers value, how long retraining tends to take & whether age is a barrier.

How to Write a Semiconductor Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Semiconductors sit at the heart of modern technology. From consumer electronics and automotive systems to AI, defence, telecoms and advanced manufacturing, semiconductor professionals play a critical role in designing, fabricating and testing the components that power the global economy. Yet many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Semiconductor job adverts often receive either very few applications or a high volume of unsuitable ones. Experienced engineers and scientists frequently ignore adverts that feel vague, generic or disconnected from the realities of semiconductor development and manufacturing. In most cases, the issue is not a shortage of talent — it is the clarity and quality of the job advert. Semiconductor professionals are detail-oriented, process-driven and highly selective. A poorly written job ad signals weak technical understanding and unclear expectations. A well-written one signals credibility, precision and long-term intent. This guide explains how to write a semiconductor job ad that attracts the right people, improves applicant quality and strengthens your employer brand.

Maths for Semiconductor Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are aiming for semiconductor jobs in the UK it is easy to assume you need a PhD level maths toolkit. In practice most roles do not. Whether you are targeting device engineering, process engineering, yield engineering, product engineering, test, reliability, RF, analogue, digital design, EDA, packaging or applications engineering, the maths you actually use clusters into a few workhorse areas. This guide strips it back to the topics that genuinely help you get hired & perform well on the job: Exponents, logs & “physics curves” (Arrhenius style behaviour, subthreshold, leakage) Calculus in plain English (rates, gradients, differential equations intuition) Device electrostatics & transport basics (Poisson equation intuition, drift & diffusion) Complex numbers for AC & RF (impedance, phasors, frequency response) Signals maths (Fourier intuition, bandwidth, noise density) Probability & statistics for manufacturing (SPC, DOE, yield models, reliability basics) Basic optimisation habits (fitting models, tuning trade-offs, making decisions with data) You will also get a 6 week plan, portfolio projects & a resources section you can follow without getting pulled into unnecessary theory.
