Company Mission

Nusku is leading the energy transition with a revolutionary new heating system that enables a seamless shift away from gas boilers to a more affordable and greener solution. Our mission is to reduce the carbon emissions associated with heating the UK’s approximately 29 million households, while reshaping how people think about home heating.

We are driven by innovation and long-term sustainability, developing products that are efficient, reliable and accessible. By bringing breakthrough technology into everyday homes, we aim to improve comfort for our customers, lower energy costs, and accelerate the UK’s journey to net zero.

Who you are

We are looking for a practical, hands-on Engineering Technician to build and modify prototype and test units, run engineering tests and help turn our designs into reliable, working hardware.

This is a varied role for someone who enjoys building, fixing, testing and improving things. Most of your time will be split between hands-on build and modification work and structured testing, with responsibility for keeping the workshop safe, organised and ready to support development.

You might have experience in a workshop, maintenance, HVAC, electrical or mechanical assembly, pipework, fabrication, manufacturing, product testing or a similar hands-on environment. We are interested in practical ability, careful test work, adaptability, safe working practices, good organisation and a willingness to get stuck in.

Most importantly, you will want your practical skills to contribute to a mission that matters: helping Nusku bring a lower-carbon heating solution into real homes.

What the job involves

As Engineering Technician, you will play a key role in building and modifying test units and generating reliable test evidence for our engineering team. As a guide, the role is expected to be approximately 40% build and modification, 40% testing and 20% workshop organisation, although the balance will vary with development priorities. Responsibilities include:

• Building, modifying, assembling and repairing prototype and test units across mechanical, electrical, HVAC, pipework and electro-mechanical assemblies.
• Carrying out practical fault finding, rework and improvement activities on prototypes, test units, rigs and assemblies.
• Creating, maintaining and operating test rigs for engineering trials, product development and validation activity.
• Setting up and running engineering trials and tests, including preparing test units, equipment, instrumentation and sensors.
• Recording test results accurately, noting observations or anomalies and feeding back findings to the engineering team.
• Working closely with design engineers and system owners to plan build and test work around current development priorities.
• Managing the day-to-day running of the workshop space, ensuring it is safe, tidy, organised and fit for purpose.
• Maintaining workshop consumables, tools and equipment, including monitoring stock levels and arranging replenishment where required.
• Improving the layout, storage, usability and functionality of the workshop to support efficient build and test activity.
• Ensuring workshop Health & Safety procedures are followed, including the safe use of tools, equipment, materials and test setups, and assisting with equipment inspections, PAT testing or other compliance activities where trained and competent to do so.
