You’ll be responsible for:

  • Leading mechanical design from concept through to manufacture
  • Developing robust products for challenging environments
  • Improving product reliability and environmental performance
  • Working across materials, thermal management and sealing
  • Leading prototyping, testing and product validation
  • Championing DfM and DfA
  • Providing technical leadership across multidisciplinary teams

We’re looking for someone with:

  • Experience developing complex hardware products in aerospace, defence or similar industries
  • Strong 3D CAD skills — SolidWorks, Siemens NX or similar
  • A proven track record taking products from concept through to manufacture
  • Hands-on prototyping and testing experience
  • The ability to lead technical projects and work across multidisciplinary teams

If you’re a Senior or Lead Mechanical Design Engineer with a background in aerospace, defence or another highly demanding engineering environment, I’d be keen to hear from you.
