Labman Automation is an award-winning company in North Yorkshire that designs and manufactures bespoke robotic automation systems for a wide range of laboratory, medical and industrial industries across the world.
We're a company that prides itself on building strong relationships with our customers and meeting their technological challenges. Our purpose is to enable a world where science is not limited by technology. Our philosophy of engineering excellence is achieved through self-discipline with supportive leadership, sustainable partnerships, and openness. Our company structure encourages involvement and accountability from everyone. This is driven forward with kindness, humour & enthusiasm. Labman really is a unique and dynamic place to work.
Graduate Project Leaders are accountable for technical work, whether they're managing groups of people or projects. The graduate should be confident in electrical/electronic engineering, software engineering or mechanical engineering. Regardless of the graduates chosen discipline, they will be exposed to all aspects of the business and are encouraged to take a hands-on approach in the initial phases. They will play a key role in projects and are expected to be proficient in research, design, planning, system testing, implementation, and project control.
The graduate will be exposed to the entire lifecycle of the projects from inception to completion. Early on the graduate will be given their own project to manage, from start to finish. The graduate will be supported and mentored throughout the scheme by a Project Manager, but the graduate will have freedom to work autonomously. The graduate will also work as part of project teams and will be invited and encouraged to participate fully as team members. As the graduate progresses, they will be given increased levels of responsibility.
Engineering disciplines
Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical design and manufacturing is at the heart of most of Labman's projects. Mechanical engineers are involved from the very start of a project using Solidworks to design and simulate solutions. All Labman projects include a variety of mechanical components such as bearings, transmission components, vibration isolation, fixings and pneumatic systems.
Hands-on design and development is encouraged and is often the best way to quickly develop new concepts and ideas. Labman maintains a huge variety of components dedicated to prototype manufacture and development. Graduate mechanical engineers can expect to become proficient in 3D design and simulation as well as use CADCAM to manufacture components on CNC millers, routers and lathes. Manufacturing knowledge using most engineering metals and plastics will enable graduates to design more effectively and efficiently. Electrical/Electronic Engineering
All Labman systems are built to relevant EU and ISO standards and the graduate is expected to become familiar with the relevant directives, legislations and standards.
Labman designs and develops their own microcontroller PCBs for various applications from data acquisition, motion control and process control. Using the ARM architecture, the boards are continually improved to ensure state-of-the-art and business sustainability. The graduate will accustom themselves with these technologies. Graduates should become familiar with commercially available sensors, controllers, transducers, drives and peripherals and know when they should be used. A graduate who specializes in this discipline is expected to further develop and support the existing electronics team to continually improve the technologies in Labman's electronics toolkit. Additionally, the graduate will ensure best practices are maintained and modified to reflect industry norms.
Software Engineering
Software development in Labman is performed with C# using an object-oriented structure. User interfaces are developed using Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and a graduate would be expected to become familiar with these technologies and standards.
Labman is constantly looking for new approaches and technologies which improve the efficiency of software development and result in a better end-user experience. Graduates should be well versed in current technologies and make a conscious effort to keep themselves abreast of advancements. A graduate would be expected to support the existing software team and continually improve the technologies in use. A graduate is expected to work efficiently and openly as the systems developed by Labman must be easy to support, maintain and use.
Values at Labman
To continue with our engineering excellence and deliver what we care about the most, we work towards and live by these values & behaviours helping us to achieve our shared goals.
In it together : Being a team; a community of mutual support Excellence : Working & delivering at the very highest quality Humility : Respecting yourself and others Sustainability : Recognition that we have an impact on our planet, our company and our community Fun : Enjoyment in your work
Entry Requirements
The graduate must have a good engineering degree in a relevant discipline. Labman expects the graduate to have an intrinsic interest and intuitive understanding of engineering, underpinned by academic theoretical knowledge base. Understanding engineering from first principles and first-hand knowledge, as well as learned engineering subject matter, is a must. The candidate must be of a get-up-and-go attitude showing perseverance in the face of difficulty. The graduate must have a good A-Level in maths and preferably another science A-Level.
Due to the varied nature of the custom projects at Labman, the graduate should be able to quickly assimilate and comprehend knowledge in an unfamiliar topic, more often than not in an area unrelated to previous study.
We are looking for those who have an active interest with how things work. Do you have a few projects on the go with an Arduino or are you always rebuilding engines and working on home DIY projects? If so, we would love to hear about it. Be sure to include any personal projects with your application.
Company Benefits:
A competitive salary, based on merit and reviewed annually. Graduate salaries are approximately £27,000-£35,000. The pay scale is expected to increase quickly in line with responsibility. 33 days annual holiday (raising to 38 over 5 years) including public holidays with flexibility to carry some over. 5% Employer pension contribution paid on full salary with no upper cap. Company profit share scheme. Enhanced maternity pay (long term service applicable). Increased Paternity leave. Access to counsellor, psychotherapist & physiotherapist. CPD support and annual subscription to appropriate body covered. Free in-house gym, squash, bouldering wall, and countless clubs. Opportunity to travel worldwide. The ability to forge a long-lasting career at a company that has seen consistent growth year on year. With the chance to grow and flourish in a sector that is only expanding. A culture where you take ownership of your responsibilities and feel part of the company. Not to mention; free fruit, nice coffee, BBQ's + team events.
