6 days ago
As a specialist water-focused consultancy, we build and test scale models to help us explore developments in the coastal and marine environments. Our facilities are some of the largest in the world. To support this work as well as the work of other national and international research and commercial facilities, we develop specialist equipment, software and instrumentation.
About the role

Examples of the equipment you will be working on include: hydrodynamic instrumentation, wave generation systems; absorbing beaches; tidal generators; towing carriages; instrument positioning systems and remote platforms.
Alongside delivering world class engineering solutions to our clients, you will be helping us develop and capitalise new, innovative technologies to enhance our product portfolio and continue the organisation's growth in strategic markets.
The role is UK based (in either our Wallingford or Manchester office), but provides opportunities for travel to meet our clients around the world.
Main duties include:
- Undertake design, analysis, and validation of motion control systems (including hardware and software design) using industry standard PLCs and I/O.
- Participate in design reviews, and recommend design modifications to improve functionality, reliability, and manufacturability.
- Produce electrical schematics using Zuken E.3 for detailed design and manufacture.
- Review and approve electrical schematics.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (including mechanical engineers, software engineers, and project managers) to ensure successful project completion.
- Provide support to our Business Development/Customer Support team.
- Support in the development of concepts and design solutions for new technology. This will include planning, testing and validation activities.
- Produce technical reports, specifications, user manuals, maintenance guides and other technical documentation.
- Liaise and build relationships with key suppliers of electromechanical products.
