We are seeking a Mechanical Engineer to join our Engineering team. The successful candidate will be responsible for:

• Mechanical design of products.
• Managing all engineering activities related to mechanical products in our portfolio.
• Collaborating closely with existing staff to deliver high-quality solutions.

• Preferably with experience from the Automation & Instrumentation market.

• Using robust mechanical engineering principles, design safety critical equipment for the nuclear, defence, and oil and gas industries.
• Design components for manufacturability and assembly (DFM / DFA), working closely with machining, sheet‑metal, casting, rubber moulding, welding, and assembly operations.
• Participate in formal design control activities: design reviews, risk assessments, failure analysis (FMEA – to reduce and solve problems), and configuration management.
• Experienced in developing 3D CAD models and detailed engineering drawings, maintaining fully traceable design documentation including BOMs, tolerance analyses, design specifications, test plans, ECRs, and records.
• HND with relevant experience in Mechanical Engineering.
• Knowledge of international standards.

• Support prototype builds and validation testing (DVT), including performance, environmental, thermal, ingress protection, shock/vibration, and safety compliance.
• Ability to use structured problem‑solving tools (e.g., 8D, including 5‑Why, Ishikawa, FMEA).

• Knowledge of hazardous area certification (ATEX/IECEx), PED, SIL assessment, and functional safety principles.
• Direct experience in process instrumentation (pressure/level/temperature devices) or similar engineered products.
• Strong understanding of materials used in harsh environments (stainless steels, duplex alloys, elastomers, ceramics, coatings).

Initial training will be provided on our products.
