Job Description - Engineering Expert Post-Processing Technology (Washing & Drying) - Austin

Your mission

Own and drive the development of Zellerfeld’s post-processing systems – particularly washing and drying – as the company’s leading technical authority. This is not a people management role, but a deep technical one: hands-on, execution-oriented, and innovation-driven. The role requires combining years of engineering experience with the ability to build high-quality systems while supporting and challenging a growing team of younger engineers.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

Lead the design, prototyping, and implementation of next-generation washing and drying systems for 3D-printed footwear
Serve as the company's go-to expert for anything related to water treatment, washing machine technologies, and drying systems
Develop and implement reliable, scalable, and efficient processes to improve drying speed, energy usage, and cleaning effectiveness
Act as technical mentor and quality gatekeeper for a team of younger engineers – not managing them, but ensuring engineering excellence
Stay deeply hands-on: test, iterate, and refine prototypes and systems
Collaborate closely with production, hardware, and material teams to align system design with real-world constraints and opportunities
Keep up to date with industry best practices, technologies, and innovations and apply them pragmatically
Ensure all developments are well-documented, tested, and ready to scale

Your profile

10+ years of engineering experience in water-based processing systems (e.g., washing machines, dryers, industrial cleaning systems, or water treatment)
Proven track record of building reliable, cost-effective, and energy-efficient solutions
Deep knowledge of fluid dynamics, heat transfer, materials compatibility, and system integration
Strong prototyping and test engineering skills – able to go from concept to functional rig
Experience working in a manufacturing, lab, or industrial R&D setting
Comfortable coaching younger engineers and setting high engineering standards without formal disciplinary responsibility
Hands-on mentality, low ego, high credibility – approachable and respected by the team
Fluent in English
