We re supporting an established UK specialist vehicle manufacturer looking to add aMechanical Chassis Design Engineerto its eight–person Chassis Engineering team.
This is a hands–on engineering role with genuine ownership across the full product lifecycle, frominitial concepts and component design through to validation, production support and solving real–world field issues.
There s also scope to develop beyond component–level design intowider vehicle systems and project engineering responsibilities.
We d be particularly interested in speaking with engineers fromyellow goods, agricultural machinery, construction equipment, commercial vehicles, trailers, tankers, specialist vehicles, material handling or other heavy/mobile machinery environments.
What you ll be doing:
- Designing and detailing chassis systems, fabricated structures and mechanical components
- Developing sheet–metal, welded and structural assemblies
- Integrating hydraulic and pneumatic equipment into wider vehicle systems
- Producing 3D CAD models, engineering drawings and accurate BOMs
- Supporting DVP&R, design reviews, prototype builds and product validation
- Applying engineering fundamentals around stress, strain, fatigue, materials, fasteners and tolerances
- Designing with manufacture, assembly, cost, quality and serviceability in mind
- Resolving manufacturing, build and field issues through root–cause analysis
- Working closely with suppliers, manufacturing and cross–functional engineering teams
What we re looking for:
- Mechanical design experience within vehicles, yellow goods, heavy machinery, trailers, tankers or a similar engineered–product environment
- Experience designingfabricated structures, sheet–metal components, brackets or structural assemblies
- Good understanding ofDesign for Manufacture and Assembly
- Ability to produce high–quality technical drawings and BOMs
- HNC, HND, engineering apprenticeship, degree or equivalent practical engineering experience
- Experience using a mainstream 3D CAD package,ideally Solid Edge
Solid Edge experience isn't essential. We're much more interested in your engineering background and what you've actually designed.
