About Mous
We are Mous. (Pronounced mouse, not moose.) People deserve tech and lifestyle products that are fit for purpose, perform as promised, and empower them to be their best. That’s why we’re building the go-to brand for products that genuinely deliver.
For over 10 years, we’ve pushed product performance to its limits, designing from first principles, validating through real-world testing, and investing millions in R&D. In parallel, we’ve built world-class in-house marketing capabilities, creating highly engaging, performance-led content that proves what our products can do and resonates with a passionate, fast-growing community around the brand.
From throwing phones off dams to launching category-defining products, our ambition is simple: raise the standard of the industry and build one of the most effective consumer brands in the world.
About the Role
We're looking for a Junior Design Engineer to join our growing Product Development team. This is a fantastic entry-level opportunity for a recent engineering or product design graduate who's eager to start a hands-on career developing high-performance consumer products.
This role sits within our Design Engineering team where you'll join a collaborative, fast-paced team responsible for taking new products from concept through to manufacture, supporting a variety of projects and helping to solve technical challenges through CAD, prototyping and testing, all while learning from experienced Design Engineers and Industrial Designers.
You'll work across multiple product categories and stages of development, getting valuable exposure to the full product lifecycle. It's the entry point into our Engineering team, built around guided learning rather than independent ownership of projects.
About You
As a Junior Design Engineer at Mous, you'll be hands-on from day one, from building prototypes, developing CAD, solving engineering problems, and learning how to deliver high-performance, consumer-ready products alongside a collaborative Product Development team.
