Design Engineer
Elevation Recruitments Design & Projects division are looking for a Design Engineer to develop mechanical components, mounting systems, brackets and structural assemblies, working closely with engineering and production teams to improve product performance, reliability and ease of manufacture.
This is a hands-on Design Engineer role rather than a desk-based position. You will spend time on the shop floor, identifying issues, developing solutions and seeing your designs through into production.
The Role
As Design Engineer, you will:
Design and develop brackets, mounts, fixings and structural components. Convert concepts, sketches and 3D models into manufacturable designs. Design components using sheet metal, laser-cut, fabricated and formed parts. Improve existing designs to reduce weight, part count, cost and assembly time. Design for manufacture and assembly (DFMA). Investigate production issues and develop practical engineering solutions. Work directly with production and assembly teams to resolve fitment and quality issues. Develop prototypes and test designs before production. Create and maintain CAD models, engineering drawings and technical documentation. Develop assembly instructions and support production with technical guidance. Consider tolerances, adjustment, fastening methods and dynamic loading within designs. Identify opportunities to standardise components, fixings and manufacturing methods. Support continuous improvement across products and manufacturing processes.
About You
We are looking for a practical Design Engineer who enjoys getting involved with both design and manufacturing.
You should have:
Experience in mechanical design engineering within a manufacturing environment. Strong 3D CAD experience. Experience designing brackets, fixings, assemblies, sheet metal or fabricated components. Good understanding of manufacturing and fabrication processes. Experience working with production or assembly teams. A hands-on approach to engineering and problem solving. Understanding of tolerances, fasteners, structural integrity and dynamic loads. Ability to take a problem from the production floor, develop a solution and implement the design. Strong communication and problem-solving skills.
Experience with SolidWorks, Inventor, CATIA, Creo or similar CAD systems would be beneficial.
Automotive, transport, machinery, special purpose equipment or other high-volume / low-volume manufacturing experience would be relevant.
