Project Engineer Location: Baden, Switzerland Workload: 80% | 100% Working Model: Hybrid, with regular office presence in Baden Purpose of Role The Project Engineer is a key technical point of contact for the mechanical scope of Enduron® Vertical Stirred Mill projects, supporting projects from engineering through to successful delivery. Working at the intersection of engineering, project management and the customer, you will translate project and customer requirements into practical engineering solutions and ensure mechanical deliverables are technically sound, compliant and delivered on time. This role requires more than technical capability. We are looking for someone who can work pragmatically, adapt when requirements change and communicate confidently with customers and stakeholders. You will often need to balance technical quality, cost and schedule while keeping projects moving forward. You will coordinate closely with mechanical, electrical and process engineering teams, Project Managers, suppliers and customers. Previous experience within mining is an advantage, but not essential. We are equally interested in candidates who have worked with heavy machinery, rotating equipment, mechanical systems, power generation or other heavy industrial applications. Practical experience with installation, commissioning or site-based engineering would be particularly valuable. Core Responsibilities Safety First: Demonstrate 100% commitment to Weir's zero-harm behaviours in support of a world-class safety culture. Project Execution: Own and coordinate the mechanical engineering scope on execution projects from order intake through to project delivery. Define and track engineering deliverables, ensuring alignment with project milestones, budgets and customer requirements. Engineering Specification & Coordination: Define and review specifications for mill equipment and ensure compliance with applicable standards and customer requirements. Translate project requirements into clear engineering work packages, including the coordination and integration of auxiliary systems. Customer & Stakeholder Coordination: Act as an important technical interface between engineering, Project Management, suppliers and customers. Communicate technical topics clearly, respond effectively to changing requirements and help drive practical solutions that keep projects progressing. Documentation: Prepare and maintain project documentation, including data packs, engineering change notices, specifications and O&M manuals. Technical Reviews: Participate in design reviews and risk assessments, identify technical and project risks and support the implementation of appropriate mitigation measures. Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with mechanical, electrical and process engineering teams, Project Managers and other key stakeholders to ensure the mechanical scope integrates successfully within the overall mill system. Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities to improve project execution processes, procedures, checklists and engineering tools. By fulfilling these responsibilities, the Project Engineer will contribute to Weir Comminution’s position as a leader in the industry while improving project execution and our customers' delivery experience. Skills & Competencies Strong technical foundation combined with practical engineering judgement. Pragmatic and solution-oriented approach, with the ability to make progress even when not all information is available. Adaptable and comfortable working with changing customer requirements and priorities. Strong organisational skills with the ability to coordinate multiple deliverables across projects. Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to explain technical topics clearly to customers and colleagues from different disciplines. Proactive and self-driven, with the confidence to take ownership and responsibility for engineering deliverables. Structured problem-solving capability and the ability to balance quality, cost and schedule. Comfortable working across different functions and international teams. Willingness to travel internationally, approximately 10%. Working proficiency in English; German is an advantage. Education & Qualifications Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or another relevant technical/engineering discipline, or an equivalent technical qualification. Approximately 4–7 years of relevant experience in engineering, project engineering or a comparable technical project environment. Experience within mining, heavy industry, heavy machinery, rotating equipment, power generation or manufacturing is preferred. Mining experience is advantageous but not essential. Good understanding of mechanical design, manufacturing processes and engineering documentation. Experience with site installation, commissioning or field-based engineering is considered a strong advantage. Experience or exposure to auxiliary systems such as hydraulic systems or maintenance/service equipment in industrial applications is an advantage. Familiarity with PLM systems such as NX Teamcenter and project scheduling tools such as MS Project is advantageous.
