Mechanical Design Engineer
This role will give an experienced Mechanical Design Engineer the opportunity to work on innovative technology and technically challenging projects, taking ideas from the initial design stage through to development and manufacture.
You’ll work closely with scientists, engineers, manufacturing teams, and suppliers to design and develop components and sub-assemblies for specialist products. The role will involve using SolidWorks to create and develop designs, building prototypes, sourcing parts, and applying your engineering knowledge to solve practical problems.
We’re looking for someone with at least five years’ experience as a Mechanical Engineer, with strong SolidWorks skills and experience in special-purpose machinery and automation mechanisms. You’ll be comfortable carrying out engineering calculations, working to Design for Manufacture principles, and managing revisions to drawings and BOMs.
