Senior Mechanical Engineer

Role Title

Senior Mechanical Engineer

The Mechanical Engineer will report in the Head of Mechanical Systems.

The Company's offices are at Concourse 2, Queen's Road, Titanic Quarter, Belfast. The company's production factory is close by at Unit 1 Oakbank, Channel Commercial Park.

The Mechanical Systems Department sits within the Technical Team and is responsible for delivering all mechanical design, engineering, and integration activities for our eFoiler® and Primary / Secondary mechanical systems. The department is also critical for the delivery and performance of all Artemis Technologies vessels and is rapidly expanding its footprint within the company.

We are recruiting a Mechanical Engineer to support the conceptual development and detailed design of mechanical systems, components, and assemblies for our range of Artemis eFoiler® products. The role will focus on the mechanical design and integration of complex electromechanical systems, including electrical energy storage, alternative fuels, and power delivery systems. The role will be fast paced and dynamic, commanding high levels of autonomy and organisation.

• Own the development and delivery of assemblies and components supporting the mechanical integration of complex electromechanical systems, ensuring they meet demanding performance and design requirements.
• Develop solutions from a blank sheet through to detailed drawings for machined, cast, fabricated and additive manufactured components and assemblies using 3DX (CATIA V6).
• Requirements capture and engineering, working with high level product targets and completing the requisite activities to capture system level requirements.
• Using a systems engineering approach to develop the required solutions, collaborating closely within multi-disciplinary project teams.
• Specification of materials, surface finishes, treatments, and component tolerances to ensure assembly and endurance requirements are met in harsh marine environments.
• Ensuring system and component designs are optimized for weight, cost and efficiency whilst being compliant with requirements for certification.
• Compile and author technical documentation to support test, manufacturing processes and customer information.
• Support the boat development programs where required.
• Engage in the introduction of new technology to ATL where appropriate.
• Attend team and 1-1 meetings and fulfil reporting requirements as required by Artemis Technologies.
• Ensure compliance with Artemis Technologies Policies and procedures as outlined in the Company Handbook.
• Build good working relationships across Artemis Technologies.
• Contribute to shaping a culture that reflects Artemis Technologies Values and Guiding Principles and enables the company to achieve its goals.

• University degree in Mechanical Engineering or other relevant engineering discipline such as Automotive or Aerospace (2:1 Hons or above) is essential, MEng or equivalent desirable.
• 5+ years in a marine / motor sport / aerospace setting is desired.

Technical/Design skills

• Able to generate concepts from a blank sheet of paper and develop robust concept selection methodologies, ensuring concepts are feasible and deliver on critical project requirements.
• Proven experience in 3D design of precision engineered components and assemblies using CATIA V5/V6, other packages will be considered.
• Producing high quality, detailed drawings for manufacture which support manufacture, inspection, and assembly.
• Firm grasp of a range of manufacturing processes and their associated limitation (e.g., moulding, stamping, forming, machining, casting, welding etc).
• Knowledge and familiarity with material selection and surface treatments for highly loaded systems in a harsh marine environment.
• Experience of research and development through analysis, prototyping and testing.
• Applying a 'first principles' approach to solve challenging new problems, capable of completing hand calculation to guide initial design decisions.
• Working independently with minimal guidance and displaying strong initiative is critical.
