Background

As architects of meaningful change, we guide industries forward by developing world-class products and holistic, scalable solutions that harness our expertise in telemetry, control and analytics and electrification. We work with pioneers and visionaries who share our ambition to win. The output is high-performance design of products and processes across the automotive and Motorsport. You won’t believe what we get to work on.

Purpose of the Role

As a Graduate Quality Engineer, you will work with the full support of an established Quality team, developing the skills to assure the quality of our products from new product introduction through to production and customer delivery. You will work on products and programmes across motorsport, automotive and transportation, supporting production and customer activities while working to established quality processes and standards. You will collaborate with Engineering, Production, Supply Chain and Project teams across the business, providing the opportunity to develop in a rich, high-technology manufacturing environment. The role offers exposure to the full breadth of quality engineering including incoming inspection, first article inspection, non-conformance management, root cause investigation, supplier quality and customer quality allowing development across all areas or a focus on a specific discipline.

Principal Accountabilities

  • Supporting internal and external investigations of electronic and electro-mechanical products and components.
  • Identification of failure modes from production, supplier and customer returns.
  • Recording, managing and driving non-conformances (NCs) to closure, including participation in Material Review Boards.
  • Supporting root cause and corrective/preventive action activities using 8D, 5 Why and Ishikawa methods.
  • Preparing first article inspection (FAI), inspection and test documentation alongside the NPI team.
  • Collecting and analysing quality metrics (e.g. scrap, yield, NC trends) using tools such as Pareto and SPC.
  • Supporting the preparation of customer and supplier reports, and assist with part approval documentation (e.g. PPAP / APQP) to ensure customer requirements are met for new or modified products and processes.
  • Supporting internal quality system audits and help host customer and supplier audits.
  • Working closely with all functions to drive continuous improvement and the company goal of zero defects, in accordance with ISO 9001 quality management systems and IPC Class 3 requirements.
  • Ensuring all activities are conducted in line with Motion Applied Safety, Quality and Environmental systems.

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.
