The Impact You'll Make

As our Engineer, Sustainability, you’ll play a key role in enabling credible product environmental transparency for RAC RD&E by supporting data collection, verification, and coordination required for Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) development.

Your impact? Product lifecycle data will be more complete, accurate, and ready for LCA assessment and EPD creation, helping internal teams and customers make better sustainability decisions.

You’ll collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, procurement, logistics, product management, and regional/global stakeholders while taking ownership of product data coordination, validation, documentation, and continuous improvement of sustainability data processes.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Coordinate with cross-functional teams to collect primary data for LCA and EPD work, including bill of material, material grade, component weight, production process, supplier location, logistics, energy consumption, and end-of-life inputs.
  • Organize, validate, and cross-check sustainability data for completeness, accuracy, consistency, and alignment with stakeholder inputs before LCA modelling and EPD documentation.
  • Support product grouping, data gap identification, input sheet preparation, and basic analysis required for LCA software or EPD workflow.
  • Maintain documentation, reporting templates, and a centralized database of verified inputs to improve repeatability and reduce effort in future assessments.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement by identifying bottlenecks in the data collection process and sharing knowledge on LCA, EPD, environmental reporting, and sustainable design practices.

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Production, Industrial, Environmental Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Basic understanding of sustainability reporting, product lifecycle thinking, LCA, EPD, or willingness to build capability in these areas.
  • Strong data handling and analysis capability using MS Excel; exposure to Power BI and LCA tools such as GaBi or similar software will be an advantage.
  • Ability to work with cross-functional and cross-regional stakeholders, follow up on inputs, validate details, and communicate clearly in written and verbal English.
  • Detail-oriented mindset with strong ownership, problem-solving, documentation discipline, and a continuous improvement approach
