Kiwitech International Ltd is in the market for a skilled practical mechanical engineer to assist in production, maintenance, product development from concept to prototyping, die-making, and production machine manufacture. Kiwitech is a small but fast-growing, very innovative manufacturing and exporting company.
Currently, we are undertaking a large, very novel project which should suit open-minded tradesmen/engineers with a wide range of skills who enjoy creative problem solving. This project is aimed at transforming pastoral farming with a very strong emphasis on sustainability. Applicants who have some connection with grass-based farming and/or an interest in contributing to a mission aimed at turning NZ pastoral farming into an environmental champion are especially valued.
Strongly preferred skills are: Precision machining with CNC experience
General fitting, maintenance, and troubleshooting
Desirable but non-essential skills are: CADCAM
Injection moulding and general plastics manufacturing
R&D
Engineering theory
This role/job description can be adapted toward the skill set of the right applicant, so it is unnecessary to have experience/proficiency in all the above areas.
As a small company manufacturing a wide range of products, plus a significant R&D program, this role would offer a lot of variation and mental stimulation for someone who enjoys problem-solving and developing further skills.
We are very open to negotiation on terms and conditions of employment and take the view that people should be paid according to their ability to add value to the company (in the broadest sense). As a small growing company, there are great opportunities for career advancement at Kiwitech.
Applicants for this position should have NZ residency or a valid NZ work permit and currently reside in NZ.
Kiwitech is based near Bulls on SH3 heading to Wanganui.
