Test Engineer

Are you excited by the idea of helping accelerate the global transition to clean energy? This is a fantastic opportunity for a hands‑on Test Engineer to join an innovative organisation developing cutting‑edge energy storage technology that enables zero‑carbon for industrial settings.

In this role, you will design, build and run test rigs that support the development of next‑generation electrical, mechanical and thermal systems. You’ll be part of a collaborative, mission‑driven engineering team working on technology that has the potential to make a real impact.

You will take ownership of the testing lifecycle across a range of physical systems, including thermal, mechanical and electrical components.

Key responsibilities include:

• Gathering system and performance requirements
• Developing and documenting test requirements
• Designing and building test rigs
• Creating test environments and test cases
• Running test rigs and analysing results
• Identifying issues, recommending fixes and driving improvements
• Presenting findings to the product design and engineering teams
• Conducting quality checks on components and final products
• Ensuring compliance with relevant industry standards (e.g., ISO)
• Inspecting pipework, materials and assemblies

This is a hands‑on role working with heating and electrical systems, valves, pumps, sensors, pipework and associated instrumentation.

You will thrive in a fast‑moving environment where you can apply both analytical and practical engineering skills. We’re looking for someone who enjoys problem‑solving, building prototypes and getting stuck into real‑world testing.

• Previous experience as a Test Engineer or similar role
• Engineering degree or equivalent practical experience
• Ability to read and work from schematics/drawings
• Comfortable in workshop and laboratory environments
• Strong troubleshooting ability and analytical mindset
• Experience with testing techniques and methodologies
• Knowledge of quality standards and regulations
• Instrumentation (thermocouples, flow meters, pressure sensors)
• Calibration processes
• Building test rigs with heaters, pumps, pipework and tanks
• Electrical tools (multimeters, clamp meters)
• Working with high‑power systems (up to 1,000
  
  A)
• Writing/following risk assessments
• Safe handling of steam and electrical equipment
• Familiarity with method statements, PPE and lockout procedures

• Join a growing engineering team developing genuinely impactful technology
• Flexible working options
• Friendly, inclusive and supportive company culture
• Opportunities for ongoing learning and professional development
• Potential career progression into Lead Test Engineer, Validation Engineer or Commissioning Engineer as the organisation scales
• Competitive salary plus benefits (including share options, pension, and salary‑sacrifice schemes)
