Mechanical Engineer

Our engineer role requires the application of engineering and scientific principles to deliver and optimise safe, sustainable solutions for the design, construction, production, and operation of systems, devices, machines, structures, and processes through the full lifecycle from requirements, to design, manufacture and commissioning.

An enthusiasm for engineering combined with the proven ability to analyse problems and develop effective solutions using a strong understanding of engineering principles within a chosen discipline. A practical background is preferred with several years of applied experience is necessary.

The ability to communicate is essential with excellent verbal and written communication skills to convey technical information clearly to non-engineers and stakeholders.

It is a broad and diverse role involving working both individually and in internal multi-disciplinary teams as well as with the end user in different locations. The role requires the practicing of sustainability, integrity, ethics, diversity, and inclusion to deliver a successful solution.

As a Mechanical Engineer at M5tec, your responsibilities may include:

• Creating and optimising safe, sustainable solutions for the design, construction, production, and operation of systems, devices, machines, structures, and processes.
• Applying mechanical engineering principles to the design, analysis, and development of systems machines, and components..
• Producing concept, detailed, and layout design supported by engineering calculations and analysis.
• Producing and reviewing technical documentation, specifications and reports.
• Supporting prototype development, testing, trials, and commissioning activities
• Analysing test results and feeding back into design improvements.
• Working closely with electrical, control, software, and structural engineers to deliver integrated solutions
• Engaging with clients, stakeholders, and end users, helping translate technical information into clear, practical outcomes
• Supporting project delivery while developing an understanding of commercial, contractual, and regulatory requirements
• Adhering to engineering standards, quality procedures, and health & safety requirements

• A Minimum 2 nd class degree or equivalent qualification in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline
• Minimum of 1 to 2 years of post-graduate experience in an engineering role preferably within highly regulated industries such as Nuclear, Subsea, Renewables, Oil and Gas and Defence.
• Strong knowledge of core mechanical engineering principles, including:
  • Mechanics and dynamics
  • Thermodynamics
  • Materials science
  • Structural analysis
  • Mechanical design
• A practical, problem-solving approach to engineering challenges
• Evidence of the successful delivery of engineered solutions
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain technical concepts to non-engineers
• Experience working within multi-disciplinary teams and engaging with clients or end users
• A professional approach aligned with sustainability, integrity, ethics, diversity, and inclusion

It's our mission to become the UK's number one provider of engineered solutions to high assurance industries.
