Knowledge assistant for plant workers

AI Lead at Hinojosa Packaging Group

Barcelona, Spain

About

Our plants operate many different machines and processes, with frequent changes in teams and product mix. Onboarding new people and keeping everyone aligned with procedures for safety, quality and machine setup is time‑consuming, and documents are hard to use while working.

We are looking for an AI‑powered knowledge assistant that gives clear, step‑by‑step answers to questions about machines, materials, incidents or basic maintenance, using our existing manuals, procedures, videos and best practices.

The assistant should support different roles (new worker, team leader, quality, maintenance), languages and devices such as mobile phones or tablets used in the plant. We are also interested in solutions that can propose short learning paths and micro‑training based on the questions people ask, and provide simple dashboards to show recurring doubts and knowledge gaps.
