Mechanical Design Engineer

Company Description

Join the world of the future in a fast-growing international company!

At SEGULA Technologies you will have the opportunity to work on exciting projects and help shaping the future within an engineering company which is at the heart of innovation. SEGULA Technologies serves Clients in the automotive, energy and rail sectors in the UK. We focus on design, construction, installation, commissioning, operation, maintenance, decommissioning and dismantling also covering logistics and documentation.

We have an immediate need for a Mechanical Design Engineer with experience using CATIA V5 & Windchill. Role details as follows:

• To develop innovative mechanical design solutions, to current and future aerospace industry challenges, on existing and next generation smart motor and power generation technologies.
• To lead and deliver project based engineering work-package activities, by ensuring mature and robust mechanical solutions, designed to meet manufacturing, cost and weight targets.

• Primary responsibility is to create and support the definition of robust mechanical design solutions, for R&D / R&T project/s, by ensuring the designs are technically robust, fit for purpose and meet both the business and customer needs.
• Support and/or ownership of, one or more Engineering Work Packages, for the Mechanical Design of products.
• Interfacing with Mechanical Engineering, Stress & Thermal, Supply Chain, Industrialisation, Validation and Verification (V&V), Configuration and Quality.
• Responsibility for the delivery of engineering solutions that meet ‘Design to Cost’ and ‘Design to Manufacture/Assembly’ requirements, against programme deliverables.

• Improved awareness, through regular reporting to the Lead Engineer/s, (Principal and/or Senior Principal Engineers), on work package status.
• The production and maintenance of CAD models, drawings and parts lists that are compliant with all company standards, associated within the work package(s) assigned to you.
• The production and reporting of Design Assurance documentation, including, but not limited to, design reports, test procedures and Hand/Stress calculations, such as interference fits, thermal growth, hoop and tensile stresses, thread loadings and tolerance analyses, in support of the work package/s.
• Removing risk, by supporting engineering design investigations and Root Cause Analysis (RCA) activities, in order to develop mature products or technical concepts. This task involves both new technology (R&T and R&D), and improvements to existing product lines (TLS).
• Familiarity with Product Introduction Processes (PROMPT & DEVELOP) and the leadership or support of any gateway reviews as appropriate.
• Authoring, reviewing, and, subject to Client approval, signing off technical documentation, for Engineering and Through Life Support.
• The delivery of any monthly KPI milestone targets to support project needs and timescales.
• Delivery of formal and informal training, mentoring and leadership support, to engineering personnel and less experienced staff, to ensure the continuous improvement of both Technical and Behavioural skills, across the Product Design and Electromechanical Engineering teams and projects.

Delivery of high quality, robust designs, (Models, drawings, BOM’s etc.) which are fit for purpose with a DFA/DFM mentality and ‘Right First Time’ philosophy.

• Increased satisfaction from both Internal / external stakeholders. (communication, reporting, support)
• Delivery against assigned milestones and project tasks met on time and to budget.
• Design assurance documentation produced, is of high quality and aligned with process and procedural requirements.
• KPI’s, agreed and approved in advance and delivered consistently month on month.
• Performance objectives, agreed during annual performance reviews, and satisfactorily completed within the agreed timescales.
• Personal development targets met, e.g. competence in programing, increased knowledge of our products, processes and procedures.
• Support and mentoring, generates demonstrable skills growth within the team.
• Achievement of…
