Requirements
As a Senior Design Engineer, you will be taking ideas from prototype to production. This is very much a hands-on role working with colleagues in mechanical, electronics and software engineering. Your ability to quickly understand problems and iteratively develop solutions using CAD and their on-site workshop are key. Often deployed on the battlefield, the products you'll design need to be durable, and easy to manufacture.
You will have a background in engineering and held similar positions in the past (although not necessarily in the defence industry). You will be highly proficient with CAD software and comfortable in a workshop using additive manufacturing (3D printing) as well as standard machining tools. While you will probably have a speciality in either mechanical or electronics engineering, you will be comfortable helping with either. Academically, you will have a degree in a STEM subject. Due to the nature of the work, you will need to be British or a British dual national and be resident in the UK for the past 5-years.
They are located in picturesque surroundings in an historic market town south of Cambridge and with a well-stocked workshop. The team is small, motivated and fully funded by the founders. The work is truly cutting-edge, and you will have a significant impact on every aspect of product development.
