Senior Mechanical Design Engineer

Senior Mechanical Design Engineer – Heavy Industrial Equipment

Heavy Engineering | Stress Analysis | 3D CAD

We are recruiting an experienced Mechanical Design Engineer to join a specialist engineering team designing heavy-duty industrial mechanical equipment used in demanding environments.

This role is ideal for a hands-on mechanical engineer with strong fundamentals in mechanical design, stress calculations and heavy machinery.

You will play a key role in the design and development of large mechanical components and assemblies, ensuring designs are robust, manufacturable and capable of operating in high-load industrial applications.

To be considered for this role, candidates should have:

• Minimum 5+ years’ experience in mechanical design engineering
• Experience designing industrial machinery or heavy mechanical equipment
• Strong understanding of mechanical engineering fundamentals
• Ability to perform manual stress and load calculations
• Strong experience using 3D CAD for mechanical design
• Experience producing detailed manufacturing drawings and assemblies

Engineers from the following industries are particularly relevant:

Key responsibilities include:

• Designingindustrial mechanical components and assemblies
• Producing 3D CAD models and detailed engineering drawings
• Carrying out stress, load and strength calculations
• Designing for manufacture, reliability and performance
• Supporting product development and engineering improvements
• Working closely with manufacturing and engineering teams

CAD systems used include NX, Inventor and AutoCAD.

This is an on-site engineering role within a manufacturing and engineering environment.

Engineers are expected to be comfortable working on-site five days per week
, collaborating closely with production and engineering teams.

Applicants must have the right to work in the UK
.

Unfortunately visa sponsorship is not available
, therefore candidates requiring sponsorship cannot be considered.

• Graduate or junior engineers with limited industry experience
• Candidates with CAD-only backgrounds without mechanical engineering analysis experience
• Engineers from consumer product, plastics or light product design industries

This is an opportunity to work on real mechanical engineering challenges
, designing robust equipment used in demanding industrial environments
