Design Engineer – Mechanical / Machined Components

You’ll join a close-knit engineering team responsible for designing and developing mechanical components and assemblies — from concept through to manufacture. Working with CNC-machined parts, enclosures and precision fittings, you’ll turn ideas into robust, cost-effective, production-ready designs.

• Produce detailed manufacturing drawings, BOMs and documentation
• Drive continuous improvement of existing designs for performance and cost
• Work closely with manufacturing and suppliers to ensure designs are optimised for machining and assembly
• Create and develop mechanical designs and 3D models using CAD software
• Support prototype builds, testing and product validation
• Collaborate cross-functionally with production, quality and procurement
