Senior Mechanical Design Engineer
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to play a key role in the design and development of ruggedised hardware systems engineered for remote operation, and demanding environments.
You’ll be involved throughout the full product lifecycle — from concept and detailed design through to prototyping, testing, validation, and production — helping deliver complex mechanical systems that perform reliably under severe thermal and mechanical stress.
What we’re looking for:
- Industry experience developing hardware for demanding or extreme environments
- A degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related discipline
- Strong experience taking mechanical products from concept through to production
- Advanced proficiency in 3D CAD, ideally Siemens NX, SolidWorks, or similar PDM-managed environments
- Strong knowledge of DfMA, materials selection, thermal considerations, and structural/mechanical design
- Hands-on experience building, prototyping, and testing hardware within multidisciplinary engineering teams
- Experience with environmental testing, thermal chambers, or harsh-environment validation
If you’re excited by the challenge of designing hardware that needs to perform when conditions are at their toughest, we’d love to hear from you.
