It’s the perfect moment to join, and a great opportunity to have a lasting impact on one of the fastest growing foodtechs in France.

The Role

For our ambitious, fast growing team in Lisses we are looking for an OpEx Engineer. Working in the Operational Excellence team you take a leading role in improving our operations.

As an Operational Excellence Engineer you are responsible for identifying improvements within Production (end to end). You have a key role in bringing our current operations to another level (lower cost, better productivity and quality) and support the implementation of the operational culture and roadmap. 

Therefore, you constantly and proactively highlight the loss of productivity, cost, quality, or risk to safety and you propose solutions based on thorough analysis of cause and effect. You help the teams conducting root cause analysis when reoccurring issues, and you help them implement the long term solutions. You have a key role in bringing our current operations to another level (lower cost, better productivity and quality) and support the implementation of the operational excellence culture and roadmap.

Above all, we are looking for people who will make HelloFresh better. We believe there are many different ways of developing skills and we love diverse experiences! So even if you don’t “tick all the boxes” but think you’d thrive in this role, we would really like to learn more about you.
