Production Engineer

Company Overview

Be visionary

Teledyne Technologies Incorporated provides enabling technologies for industrial growth markets that require advanced technology and high reliability. These markets include aerospace and defense, factory automation, air and water quality environmental monitoring, electronics design and development, oceanographic research, deepwater oil and gas exploration and production, medical imaging and pharmaceutical research.

We are looking for individuals who thrive on making an impact and want the excitement of being on a team that wins.

At our Manufacturing facility in Newbury, Berkshire, the Teledyne Reynolds Team design, build and test custom high‑reliability interconnect solutions to carry signals through some of the most advanced technologies on the planet. Our cable systems power aircraft cockpit technologies, avionics, and radars to aid pilots on their flight path and ensure their safety. With the semiconductor market in higher demand than ever, our products, which aid the inspection and quality assurance of chips, are advancing with new designs and test requirements.

Our Engineering and Operations teams have been directly involved in fulfilling sales orders and getting hands on with products that are now roaming the surface of Mars, orbiting the Sun, and landing on asteroids. Due to high performance over recent years, we are now looking to expand our team. With a strong outlook in Defence, Commercial and Space markets, we are focusing on new product development and future technology systems and are looking for a Production Engineer with a working knowledge of production processes, tooling, and test equipment in a cable‑harness manufacturing environment.

The Production Engineer will be an instrumental part of the Production and Operations team by taking ownership of our processes and internal procedures. The Teledyne Reynolds product portfolio is broad and interesting, covering prototype stages, full manufacture and test. You will provide line‑side support to the Production staff and be the main interface between them and the Engineering department for NPI and legacy product ranges.

Reynolds are in a current stage of growth where direct headcount is increasing, new products are coming online and capital expenditure along with shop‑floor re‑layouts will be key for success. The Production Engineer will be heavily involved in this process and lead projects to assist the company in reaching its end goal.
