Role details:
Our client, a leading company in the defence and security sector, is currently seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer to join their team in Brighton on a contract basis. This role involves being a part of a multi-disciplined team to produce concept and detailed designs that meet internal and external customer requirements within defined schedule and cost parameters.
Key Responsibilities:
Produce design schemes and proposals in response to specifications, under the guidance of lead engineers and senior designers. Perform mechanical engineering calculations, stress analysis, and fluid dynamics (FEA and CFD). Develop innovative, well-engineered conceptual solutions and design proposals using SolidWorks. Guide and inspire less experienced engineers. Write technical reports and project documentation. Provide technical guidance and leadership to resolve problems throughout the product development life cycle. Calculate the first order strength and performance of design solutions. Select appropriate materials and material forming solutions suitable for the quantity of components. Check design drawings for completeness and accuracy and select proprietary parts/components.
