The Role
Work alongside Product and Design Engineers from concept through to engineering release.
Assess manufacturing feasibility of new product and system designs.
Influence designs to improve manufacturability, assembly, quality and cost.
Lead/support Design for Manufacture (DFM), DFA and DFX activities.
Develop manufacturing concepts, strategies and Bills of Process.
Represent Manufacturing Engineering during concept/design reviews and support NPI through to production readiness.
What We're Looking For
We are particularly interested in Manufacturing Engineers who have been involved before a product design has been frozen, rather than solely receiving completed designs for industrialisation.
You should be able to demonstrate experience in several of the following:
Manufacturing Engineering within concept or product development.
Working directly with Product and/or Design Engineers.
Influencing product design from a manufacturing perspective.
DFM / DFA / manufacturability.
Manufacturing feasibility and concept development.
NPI/NPD, concurrent engineering or design reviews.
Experience within aerospace or defence would be advantageous, although candidates from automotive, motorsport, rail or other complex engineering environments will also be considered.
This is an excellent opportunity for a Manufacturing Engineer who enjoys operating at the interface between design and manufacturing, helping shape how products are designed and manufactured from the very beginning.
