Rubicon Consulting is currently recruiting for a DFMEA Engineer on a 6 month contract based in Rugby.

Below covers everything you need to know about what this opportunity entails, as well as what is expected from applicants.

Role Summary

Own the DFMEA: Be the Subject Matter Expert (SME) and power-user of Reliasoft. You will be responsible for the integrity, structure, and execution of the DFMEA for our key propulsion and electrical components.

Facilitate & Influence: Lead high-stakes technical workshops. You’ll sit down with our busiest Lead Design Engineers, extract their deep technical knowledge, and translate their design insights into structured failure modes and mitigation strategies.

The "Scribe" & The Strategist: You will be the primary scribe, turning complex engineering inputs into clean, actionable data in Reliasoft. You’ll challenge assumptions and push for better design outcomes.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
