  • Provide hands-on technical support to Production and Sales, resolving design and assembly issues.
  • Liaise with customers, component suppliers and regulatory bodies to ensure designs meet required specifications and certification standards.
  • Support product builds, testing, validation and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Identify opportunities to improve product performance, design efficiency and manufacturing processes.

Ideally, you will have:
  • At least five years' experience as an Applications Engineer, Mechanical Design Engineer or in a similar engineering role.
  • Advanced 3D CAD skills, ideally Siemens NX, with experience developing complex components, assemblies and manufacturing drawings.
  • Strong knowledge of mechanical systems, materials and manufacturing processes.
  • Experience working with fabricated steel, aluminium and plastic components.
  • The ability to interpret technical requirements and develop innovative, manufacturable solutions.
  • Strong communication and project management skills, with the ability to collaborate across multiple teams.
