Product Engineer

This is an exciting opportunity for an early-career engineering professional to contribute to the development, validation, and support of innovative products throughout the product lifecycle. In this role, you will make an impact in the following ways:

• Support the development and delivery of current and future products through activities across the product lifecycle, from concept through to production and ongoing product support.
• Investigate product issues, identify root causes, recommend corrective actions, and lead problem resolution activities using structured problem-solving methodologies.
• Execute engineering processes and standard work practices to support Product Preceding Technology (PPT), Value Package Introduction (VPI), and Current Product Support (CPS) initiatives.
• Collaborate with product line engineers, systems engineers, manufacturing teams, suppliers, and other stakeholders to drive informed engineering decisions.
• Contribute to product verification and validation activities, including analysis, testing, interpretation of results, and technical recommendations.
• Support product configuration and change management processes, ensuring engineering data and documentation remain accurate and controlled.
• Participate in design reviews and cross-functional integration activities, helping ensure products meet customer, business, quality, and regulatory requirements.
• Apply systems thinking and engineering analysis techniques to improve product performance, reliability, manufacturability, and customer satisfaction.
  Knowledge of engineering principles and product development processes, gained through academic study or industry experience.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to evaluate technical data and make informed recommendations.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, enabling effective engagement with cross-functional teams and stakeholders.
• A proactive approach to learning, continuous improvement, and delivering high-quality engineering solutions in a fast-paced environment., Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• Relevant postgraduate or Master's degree would be advantageous but is not essential.
• Experience gained through engineering placements, internships, university projects, or an early-career engineering role within a manufacturing or product-focused environment.
• Exposure to product development, design engineering, validation, manufacturing support, or problem-solving activities would be beneficial.
• Knowledge of design tools, CAD systems, FEA techniques, or engineering analysis methods would be advantageous.
• Understanding of vehicle dynamics, braking systems, or other mechanical systems would be beneficial but is not required.
• Demonstrated ability to work effectively within cross-functional teams and manage multiple priorities.
• An innovative and inventive approach to developing engineering solutions and improving product performance.
