Are you a practically minded mechanical engineer who loves seeing your ideas transformed into working products right in front of you?

Are you a recent Graduate Engineer with a strong practical mindset? (Any hands-on engineering hobbies, fabrication / welding skills, fixing up cars, building robots, any workshop skills etc.)

If so, this could be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for!

• Collaborate as part of a small, focused team dedicated to new product development
• Take product ideas from initial concept through to functioning prototypes, all built in-house
• Design mechanical components, mechanisms, and assemblies using Solid Works
• Physically build and test your designs, you’ll be hands-on throughout the process
• Work with a range of materials and use equipment like welders, CNC machines, mills, lathes, and fabrication tools
• Support pre-launch testing, compliance checks, and ongoing product improvements

We’re after Graduate / Junior & Practical Mechanical Engineers, people who love to get stuck in, build things, and solve real-world problems with their hands as much as their heads.
