  * Work closely with design engineers to feed back performance insights and refine system designs

  * Support wider engineering activities in a workshop-based, prototype-led environment

What We're Looking For:

  * Experience working with thermal, mechanical or fluid systems (e.g. heating, steam, energy or process systems)

  * Hands-on approach with experience building or working on test rigs or experimental setups

  * Familiarity with instrumentation and data acquisition for system performance testing

  * Comfortable working in a fast-moving, evolving environment where priorities can shift

  * Strong problem-solving mindset with a practical, solutions-driven approach

What You’ll Get:

  * A salary of £40,000-£50,000 depending on experience

  * Opportunity to work on genuinely impactful clean energy technology

  * A varied, hands-on role with real ownership and visibility across engineering

  * Exposure to full product lifecycle from concept through to testing and validation

  * Share options alongside salary, offering long-term upside in a growing business

  * Flexible working hours within a collaborative and close-knit team
