World Class Defence Organisation based in Stevenage is currently looking to recruit an Environmental Project Engineer subcontractors on initial 6 month contract. The role will be a hybrid position of working from home and onsite (2-3 days per week).
Hourly Rate:
55.00ph (Umbrella) Contract Duration:
6 Months Environmental Project Engineer Job Description: The Project teams within Environmental Engineering are integral within all land, sea and air based weapons system projects. Environmental Project Engineers provide a key technical focal point for all stages of the product lifecycle, from concept definition and product development, through design aid and formal qualification, and into in-service support. Expertise covers the areas of: requirements specification and management; data analysis; simulation and modelling; and testing in climatic, mechanical (vibration and shock), structural mechanical and fatigue. We apply specialist technical knowledge and advice, with responsibility for technical accuracy and delivery of projects within assigned work packages. We have the ability to influence the design, manufacture and proving of our products whilst developing technical skills and gaining experience across the company portfolio. This role will offer the successful Engineer the opportunity to engage with senior members of the business such as Project Heads and Chief Engineers in a position to influence technical decisions. What we do: We interface with Project teams to define requirements, develop strategies and collate evidence to underwrite designs. We define the environments that products will see in service. We support other Functions and Projects in developing robust designs and efficient proving strategies. We generate the evidence to demonstrate that products will meet our customer's environmental requirements. General Responsibilities: As an Environmental Project Engineer you will be expected to work closely and build relationships with a range of functions, sectors and Chief Engineers including Systems Engineering, Architecture, Design and Proving teams. You will provide technical expertise in generating environmental requirements, developing robust product designs and defining and managing cost effective test strategies throughout the product development cycle. You will work closely with our existing team of highly experienced project and test engineers to define and manage test programmes. You will provide a technical focal point for all stages of the product lifecycle, through concept definition, design aid and formal qualification, and onto in-service support. Our expertise covers the areas of: requirements specification and management; definition of proving methodologies; project management; data analysis; simulation and modelling and testing in climatic, mechanical (vibration and shock) and fatigue. Some of the key challenges for the role include: Effectively dealing with multiple issues, tasks and priorities concurrently, cross-projects. Interaction with the customer community at a high level, maintaining integrity of engineering outputs. Ensuring adherence to delivery timescales, often supporting compliance evidence and Certificate of Design. Contributing to EE&F strategy to keep pace with emerging technologies and threats. Specific Role Responsibilities: Be a primary point of contact for Environmental Engineering technical details arising from an offsite trial for the business and to communicate these into the business through dedicated meetings, working groups. Manage day-to-day activities from project kick-off to project completion of an environmental test programme covering daily technical telephone calls, management of occurrences/NCRs, documentation authoring and updates, preparation of progress reviews, resolution or escalation of technical issues within the Environmental Engineering domain. Provide overview and guidance to the offsite trials facility where necessary to ensure the requirements of the Environmental Proving Requirement are met, covering: Equipment usage, Instrumentation selection & placement Fixtures and Set-up Assessment of pre-cursor and work-up runs Reviewing of data produced during the trial to confirm validity of responses Assisting in trouble shooting of unforeseen issues within area of responsibility and provision of solutions towards the progression of trial activities. Cover the reporting requirements for the project, from environmental engineering progress, environmental engineering issues and the technical reports to support progression of the qualification activities into the Project team. Communicate areas of concern to the correct level of authority within off site trials site. Regular travel to the trials site (South East Coast), to support in-person meetings and data reviews with offsite trials team. Skillset/experience required: Educated to degree level or with equivalent experience. Experience of planning, managing and delivering small to medium sized work packages. Knowledge of environmental engineering within the defence sector or relevant industry. Knowledge of vibration, shock, temperature and humidity environments, and their applicability to different products at different life cycle stages. An understanding of environmental test processes, test measurements and instrumentation. Knowledge of international Environmental Standards (DEF STAN 00-035 / AECTP 300 / AECTP 400 / Mil-std 810 etc.) Any experience of DOORS or Primavera would be great. UKAS knowledge would be great. Understanding of scheduling, cost and quality.
