Lead Graphic Designer

About Us

Dyson is a global technology enterprise. We solve the problems others choose to ignore, with surprising new inventions that defy convention and simply work better.

We push the boundaries of what others have defined as possible. Our approach starts with an engineering mindset and different thinking. Then we continuously refine our ideas - unwilling to compromise and driven by an obsession for finding a better way.

Our new product teams take radical innovative ideas and develop them into reality. They explore the limits of our technology and optimise it through relentless experimenting, testing, and iterating. They then develop new ways to test and evaluate performance, to accurately position our technology against our competition.

Design Engineering are agile, creative thinkers who are deeply passionate about great design and disruptive solutions. We take pride in turning product concepts into robust, manufacturable designs, working on individual parts, assemblies, and entire products. Challenges fuel our enthusiasm, and we firmly believe in our problem- solving abilities, always striving to make Dyson products the best they can be.

As an Lead Design Engineer in the Design Engineering function based at our Shanghai or Shenzhen office in China,

your primary role will be to collaborate with Dyson internal teams and ODM/JDM partners to ensure the successful delivery of mechanical designs and product integration. Drawing upon your technical expertise and leadership skills, you will ensure the quality and timely delivery of work produced by our development partners in a cost-effective manner. Your influential recommendations and decisions will contribute to the development of user- focused solutions that align with design and project goals.

• Planning and reporting: Collaborate with Dyson internal teams and ODM/JDM to identify dependencies, risks and mitigation strategies within design engineering context. Assess, plan and agree on activities to meet design and project goals. Monitor and report on progress to stakeholders.

• Requirement management: Identify and manage assembly requirements and subsequent changes, ensuring alignment with architecture and traceability to product requirements, and clearly defining interfaces with other assemblies. Ensure that ODM/OEM correctly interpret and implement requirements throughout the development phases.

• Technical management: Oversee the development of mechanical engineering solutions by our ODM/JDM teams, including the integration of electrical parts. Drive design reviews and ensure solutions follow robust engineering principles, comply with Dyson quality standards, and are delivered in a timely and cost- effective manner.

• Build evaluation
  :
  Evaluate the build process to confirm its effectiveness and efficiency in achieving design and project goals. Assess the quality of build outputs against the requirements, ensuring they meet the established standards.

• Test evaluation
  :
  Provide technical guidance in test planning and the development of test methods. Drive the execution and reporting of testing activities, ensuring that the tests are conducted properly and results are accurately documented.

• Design maturity assessment
  :
  Assess the results of design iterations, such as performance metrics, Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA), and lessons learned, to evaluate design maturity level and guide future design iterations.

• Detail Design: Supporting to turn the new technology into manufacturable solutions, responsible and accountable reviewing and signing off design engineering deliverables including 3D model, engineering drawings, tolerance stacks, engineering BOM, etc.

• Change Management and Part Approval
  :
  Change and Part Approval:
  Review and approve Change Request, review or approve engineering deliverables including drawings and engineering BOM, part approval or Deviation Request, ensuring the estimated efforts, risks and benefits are satisfactory before proceeding.

• ODM/JDM engagement: Provide subject matter expertise in Request for Information (RFI), Request for Proposal (RFP), Request for Quotation (RFQ), Master Service Agreement (MSA) and Scope of Work (SOW) processes, facilitating informed decision- making.

• Capability to explain technical findings, conclusions and recommendations with scientific data / proof systematically to Directors, Heads of Departments, Design Managers in a clear and concise fashion.

• A degree in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, Mechatronics Engineering, or equivalent.

• Strong knowledge and application of Systems Engineering, Requirements Management, and Risk Management in product development.

• Strong understanding of product development methodology. Proven ability to scope development work, decompose complex problems into manageable tasks, plan work based on need, and eliminate non- value- adding activities.

• Established track record of developing robust engineering solutions from concept to market launch. In-…
