SUMMARY
Gozney is growing rapidly, both in demand for our existing range of products and by adding exciting new products into the range. We set very high standards for quality and we’re constantly striving to ensure our products exceed our customers’ expectations of form, fit and function. We don’t stop designing with a product launch - each new product undergoes subsequent design development to drive further enhancements, deliver the best experience for our customers and make it as easy as possible for our suppliers to achieve our standards.
As a Senior Design Engineer, you will work closely with the Heads of Product, Engineering & our design team to help develop exciting new product concepts and then bring those concepts to life for our consumers. You’ll use your expertise in manufacturing processes to optimise designs for performance and manufacture. You’ll work closely with our supply chain to help achieve high-quality standards and optimal costs. You’ll make sure that we produce thorough data-packs on-time and on-budget to meet the operational requirements and timelines for our product release schedule. You will be responsible for leading new product developments through our NPL process and driving continuous product improvement & enhancement to the Gozney product range.
