• Sheet metal, frames, enclosures and structural design expertise
• Experience integrating electrical systems with exposure to RF assemblies and high-voltage equipment (desirable)
• Knowledge of hydraulics, pneumatics, conveyors and drive systems such as servo/stepper motors (desirable)
• Strong grasp of DFM/DFA, tolerancing and manufacturing processes
• Understanding of CE / UKCA compliance (desirable)
You’ll be a natural problem-solver who thrives in a project-driven environment and is experienced acting as a technical lead or design authority.
