Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom SYNTEGON Full time

At Syntegon, we're shaping the future of process and packaging technology. Our team of experts works on intelligent and sustainable solutions for the pharmaceutical and food industries.

We're committed to ensuring that people worldwide receive high-quality medications and safely packaged food. To achieve this, we offer a comprehensive service portfolio and global service organization, contributing sustainably to our customers' profitable growth.

As a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer, you'll be responsible for designing both customer projects and development projects. You'll attend specification meetings with global customers and provide authoritative contributions regarding mechanical design aspects.

You'll take responsibility for all mechanical aspects of a project and provide technical guidance to internal and external customers as necessary. Additionally, you'll communicate with other design engineers during project design to ensure coordination between disciplines.

Occasional visits to UK and international destinations may be required to fulfill customer project or development project requirements. You'll contribute creative ideas, produce concepts, and design schemes. You'll also create parts lists, assembly drawings, and detail drawings.

Your tasks will include completing engineering design on time according to the project plan, being aware of cost targets in design, purchasing, and assembly, and documenting and archiving all project-related material. You'll conduct risk assessments on machinery and assemblies of machinery and advise on mechanical health and safety aspects of the product range.

You'll attend project meetings and update Project Managers on engineering progress. You'll liaise with all departments to ensure projects are completed on time and to budget. During the build phase, you'll assist assembly personnel and commission equipment. Additionally, you'll support Sales and the Applications Manager regarding concept drawings, carton appraisals, design hours, parts costs, and assembly hours.

We're looking for an experienced design engineer with skills in electro-mechanical mechanisms and equipment. Advanced 3D modeling skills (preferably Solid Works) and sheet metal expertise are advantages. Demonstrable skill in design for manufacture and assembly meeting cost targets is essential. Confirmatory engineering calculations and analysis are also required.

Apart from a strong background in Design/Development Engineering, we value experience of interactions and interfaces with electrical engineering. As a confident lead in a team, you'll occasionally take the technical lead on larger projects. An Engineering Degree (Mechanical, Mechatronics, Integrated) and minimum 5-10 years' experience in a similar role are prerequisites.

The estimated salary for this position is $80,000-$120,000 per year, depending on your qualifications and experience. We offer a corporate culture with a strong focus on technology and collaboration, great opportunities for personal and professional development, an attractive salary package, pension, and health insurance, and overtime options.
