Production Engineer

A Production Engineer position is being filled in Hazyview. Suitable candidates from across Mpumalanga are invited to submit their applications for review.

About This Position

This Production Engineer role sits within the engineering jobs function in Hazyview. It offers a defined scope, clear measures of success, and the support of an experienced team across Mpumalanga.

Expect a structured first ninety days, with onboarding milestones, regular check-ins, and an early focus on getting comfortable with the systems and processes that underpin the Hazyview team.

Reasonable working hours and respectful planning are part of how the role runs. The team values strong delivery, and load is balanced fairly across the engineering jobs group in Hazyview.

Quality is everyone’s job. Whether the Production Engineer is processing a transaction, supporting a colleague or handling a customer query, the standard expected in Mpumalanga is consistently high and consistently fair.

The role has been written to be sustainable, not just busy. Strong output is expected, and managers in Hazyview also pay attention to recovery, learning and the kind of breathing room that keeps people doing good work over time.

What Your Day Looks Like

Mornings often begin on site, walking through plant or project areas with the team and picking up where yesterday’s work ended. You move between technical reviews, contractor discussions and hands-on troubleshooting, balancing safety, cost and quality at every decision point. The afternoon might involve drawings, reports or a planning session for an upcoming shutdown. By the time you knock off, you have kept production running, advanced the project plan and helped the team go home safely.

No two days look exactly the same — and that variety is part of what keeps the role engaging for the right candidate in Hazyview.

On top of that, the Hazyview office buzzes through peak hours and settles into focused, productive lulls in between, giving you time to plan and reset before the next stretch of work.

Crucially, the rhythm rewards people who plan ahead but also pivot quickly when Mpumalanga operations throw up the unexpected.
