Senior Mechanical Engineer

We’re working with an innovative technology company developing next-generation hardware products that combine precision mechanical engineering with advanced electronics. As the business continues to grow, they’re looking for a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to play a key role in developing products from initial concept through to full-scale manufacture.

This is an opportunity to join a collaborative, multidisciplinary engineering team where you’ll have genuine ownership of product development, working on technically challenging projects that make a real commercial impact.

As a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer, you will:

• Lead the mechanical design and development of innovative hardware products using SolidWorks
• Create high-quality 3D CAD models, assemblies and manufacturing drawings
• Collaborate closely with electronics, firmware and software engineers to develop fully integrated products
• Design for manufacturability, reliability, performance and cost
• Lead prototype builds, testing and mechanical validation, driving continuous product improvement
• Work with suppliers and manufacturing partners to successfully transition products into production
• Contribute to manufacturing readiness, procurement activities and production scale-up
• Identify and implement design improvements that enhance product quality, performance and manufacturability

You’ll have:

• A degree in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, Mechatronics or a related discipline
• At least five years’ experience in mechanical product design and development
• Advanced SolidWorks experience, with the ability to produce high-quality manufacturing documentation
• Experience taking products from concept through to manufacture
• A strong understanding of mechanical engineering principles and the integration of electronic components into mechanical assemblies
• Experience working with suppliers, manufacturing partners and production environments
• The ability to thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative engineering team

Desirable experience:

• Experience developing industrial, consumer or other electromechanical products
• Familiarity with PCB layout considerations and integrating electronics into mechanical designs
• Experience working with rapid prototyping and low-volume production

If you’re looking for a role where you’ll influence the design of innovative products, work across the full product development lifecycle and help bring cutting-edge hardware to market, we’d love to hear from you, contact Gemma Rowe for more information.
