Acting as a technical authority and design-sign-off engineer.
Reviewing and approving designs, calculations and technical documentation.
Making and defending important design and product-safety decisions.
Completing and reviewing stress, bending, shear, fatigue and mechanical-integrity calculations.
Producing clear, evidence-based design substantiation.
Leading design reviews and challenging unsupported assumptions.
Developing new mechanical products through manufacture, testing and release.
Mentoring engineers and improving design standards.
What we're looking for
Substantial mechanical-design experience involving complex products or machinery.
Strong first-principles calculation and design-substantiation skills.
Experience formally checking, approving or signing off engineering work.
The credibility to act as a senior technical authority within an engineering team.
Sound understanding of design safety, risk and verification.
Confidence making decisions carrying significant technical responsibility.
A Mechanical Engineering degree or equivalent relevant experience.Experience involving hydraulics, actuation, rotating equipment, pressure equipment, heavy machinery or other safety-critical products would be valuable.
