Mechanical Engineer

Mechanical Engineer – Automation & Tooling Design — I’m working with a client in the automation space who’s looking for a mechanical engineer that loves turning a blank page into a fully-realised system layout. If you’re into 2D layouts and Solid Works tooling design — and like seeing your work go from screen to shop floor, you’ll want to hear about this.

This role is hands-on with design, not just following templates. You’ll be part of the process from initial layout concepts right through to equipment installation, making sure everything fits, functions, and meets spec.

• Producing 2D robotic/system layouts in line with safety and customer requirements.
• Designing end-of-arm tooling and application-specific equipment in Solid Works.
• Coordinating with CAD designers to get drawings out the door on time.
• Managing multiple live design projects without dropping the ball.
• Occasionally heading to site to see your designs in action.

• A background in mechanical engineering (degree or equivalent experience).
• 2+ years in mechanical design for automation, robotics, or manufacturing.
• Strong Solid Works skills (3D) and AutoCAD for 2D layouts.
• A mix of precision and practical buildability in their design approach.
