Our client seeks an experienced engineer to Design, develop and customise their range of products to meet the individual requirements of customers.
Based within the Research and Development department, they require a degree-qualified engineer to work as part of a small development team to produce practical, economical design solutions for new products and associated electromechanical modules, either alone or under the guidance of a project engineer.
The work runs from Project conception and carries on through to eventual introduction to production. The projects are both new projects and improvements to existing Products.
Due to the nature of vibration equipment the design is Multi-disciplined, so a broad background in mechanical engineering is required including some electrical ability.
Any specialisation in the following areas would be beneficial: vibration, stress analysis, thermal modelling and magnetic design. Similarly knowledge of FEA (Mechanica), CFD (Fluent) or Magnetic modelling (Magnet) would be an asset. Key skills are: Logic, objectivity, problem solving, good communication and teamwork.

Ideally you will be educated to degree level (HNC minimum) and experienced in a low volume ISO 9000 manufacturing environment with experience in medium to heavy engineering, fabrication of structures, precision machining, pneumatics/hydraulics, casting, sheet metal and mechatronics.
Must be capable of taking design information from concept through to manufacture and be an experienced CAD user.
Knowledge of MRP systems and Microsoft products is essential.
