Key Aspects of the Role

Principally, you must provide technical leadership in mechanical engineering design as part of the concurrent engineering team, ensuring effective and efficient mechanical design processes and outcomes to support the continuing success of the Company as a world-leading ultrasonic array designer.

The role must provide effective project management and technical leadership in design and manufacture of ultrasonic arrays. Client-facing project management will be a key part of the role, covering all aspects of the Alba project QMS design lifecycle and providing high-level and timely feedback to the client; this role will act as a single point of contact for a client on a given project.

The role will also involve the mechanical design function throughout the full product lifecycle, producing CAD models and detailed 2D-drawings to produce both sub-contract machined parts as well as internally manufactured components. Management of sub-contractor output and commitments will also be a key part of the role.

It is expected that an understanding of up-to-date developments in the field shall be developed and maintained through published academic and industrial literature. This role will have significant involvement in internal R&D programs, as instigator, project manager and researcher.

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.
