Development manager, MFC

The role

As a Development manager, MFC, you will have a key role in driving the development and optimization of our fibre production processes. You will own process development topics from identifying improvement opportunities and evaluating technical alternatives through testing, implementation, and reporting. The position may also include supervisory responsibilities. A central part of the role is identifying process solutions that are technically feasible and cost-effective from both CAPEX and OPEX perspectives. You will plan and execute trials using existing facilities and equipment, analyze results, and translate findings into practical and scalable solutions. You will collaborate closely with R&D, production, engineering, external design and technology partners, and other relevant stakeholders. You will also contribute to technology sales by gathering and preparing technical information to support PDP activities. This role is ideal for an experienced engineer who combines hands-on problem-solving with structured experimentation and is comfortable taking ownership of complex technology areas and development topics. The role is not set in stone and can be adjusted based on candidate's background. Develop and optimize fibre production processes together with the team, with a particular focus on raw material handling and mechanical processes. Identify and develop cost-effective process solutions to support CAPEX and OPEX targets. Plan, execute, and document process and equipment testing across different facilities. Analyze and report test results and provide clear recommendations for new technologies and technical solutions. Develop and utilize key process metrics to support effective analysis, decision-making, and continuous improvement. Work closely with R&D, production, engineering, and external design and technology partners to develop and implement process improvements. Contribute to the scale-up and industrialization of new process concepts.
