Summary:

An exciting opportunity has arisen at Hooper Quinn for a skilled and highly motivated engineer to join our mechanical design team.

Our ideal candidate will be a practical and creative solver of mechanical engineering problems who combines a deep understanding of engineering fundamentals with industry experience to accelerate projects towards innovative and efficient solutions. Working semi-autonomously alongside a team of highly accomplished engineers, the successful candidate will take responsibility for the design and development of mechanical component and systems.

With the opportunity to engage a diverse range of projects across different industries and experience the whole product lifecycle, the position comes with significant opportunities for professional development. We offer a dynamic and innovative work environment and, through remote/hybrid working, you will have a place at our brand-new facility in Buckinghamshire.

Responsibilities:

  • Work on mechanical engineering design projects with the close support of senior engineers and the surrounding engineering function, ensuring compliance with the highest industry standards and project requirements, and adhering to engineering best practices.
  • Oversee technical activities across the product lifecycle, from project kick-off, through prototyping, and, if applicable, into production.
  • Act as a secondary technical point of contact for our clients, and collaborate with cross-functional teams, including manufacturing, quality assurance, and supply chain, to optimize product design for manufacturability, assembly, and cost.
  • Participate and contribute to design reviews and critical project milestones, and prepare and maintain technical documentation, including design drawings, specifications, and reports.
  • Conduct failure analysis and troubleshooting on existing and new designs, proposing modifications to improve performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.
  • Stay abreast of the latest technology trends and engineering best practices, integrating innovative solutions into designs where applicable.
  • Foster a culture of collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement, and become an ambassador for the wider company's values.

Skills & Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Aeronautical, or Automotive Engineering; Postgraduate degrees are advantageous.
  • 2-4 years of relevant industry experience (following graduation).
  • Working experience of CAD software (SolidWorks, NX, CREO) and PLM software (e.g. Teamcenter, 3DExperience).
  • Confident with basic hand calculations, component sizing, and a basic understanding of FEA.
  • A fundamental understanding of engineering materials (metallic/composite/plastic), fabrication processes and their application, as well as a variety of manufacturing techniques and when to employ them.
  • Strong familiarity with fundamental mechanical systems (e.g. bearings, shafts, casings, hydraulics, pneumatics).
  • Hands-on engineering experience is desirable, be it having made, built, or restored a mechanical system.
  • Ability to understand project plans quickly and work efficiently to deadlines.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively both in a team and independently, and interact with stakeholders at all levels.
