Mechanical Design Engineer

Location: RG7 4PR, located between Reading and Basingstoke, with free onsite parking.

Package: £37,860- £52,000 (depending on suitability and level of experience)

Working pattern: AWE operates a 9-day working fortnight. We will consider flexible working requests so that your work may fit in with your lifestyle. Just let us know your preferred working pattern on your application.

About Us

Join AWE's 'One Engineering' culture and you will benefit from a supportive, friendly, and flexible environment that powers your career to chartership (if desired) and onwards to reach your professional goals.

Let us introduce the role:

The Nuclear Physics Package (NPP) Engineering Group design, build, test and substantiate the safety and effectiveness of the UK's nuclear deterrent maintaining the UK Continuous At Sea Deterrent through pioneering science and computational methods. We also use our nuclear know-how and technical expertise to provide innovative solutions that support the UK's nuclear threat reduction activities.

We are currently recruiting for several roles across engineering.

Below is a summary of the different opportunities within the Group.

  • Product Design Team – working with multi-discipline teams across the business to deliver innovative design solutions to a variety of unique engineering challenges, from concept to substantiation.

  • Hydrodynamic Trials – design, build and field the extraordinary engineering tests and trials that underpin the pioneering science and computational methods that substantiate the safety and effectiveness of the UK's Nuclear Deterrent.

A typical day may include:

Working with our customers to translate requirements into engineering solutions to contribute to the delivery of conceptual designs, detailed designs, manufacturing specification, product specifications, operational documentation, and validation evidence.

Supporting the progress of these design solutions through Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) whilst engaging with stakeholders and subject matter experts to ensure compliance with safety, security, and performance.

You may also be asked to contribute to the planning and execution of tasks to deliver agreed objectives on time, demonstrating control of quality and cost whilst considering business improvements and efficiencies.

Organising personal training and development under the guidance of a certified professional mentor.

Who are we looking for?

We do need you to have the following:

  • A degree, HND/HNC or an equivalent vocational qualification in a mechanical engineering discipline.

  • Experience of producing mechanical designs for manufacture using 3D CAD software.

  • Experience of preparing technical reports and documentation.

  • Awareness of the development, testing and evaluation of engineering designs.

Experience/understanding of any of the following would be advantageous, but not essential as role specific training will be given:

  • Product Lifecycle Management (PLM).

  • Computer Aided Design (CAD) software.

  • Engineering drafting to BS8888 with GD&T.

  • Substantiating engineering designs for safety and performance.

  • Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and its limitations.

  • Manufacturing processes and technologies.

Some reasons we think you'll love it here:

AWE has wide range of benefits to suit you. These include:

  • 9-day working fortnight – meaning you get every other Friday off work, in addition to 270 hours of annual leave.

  • Market leading contributory pension scheme (we will pay between 9% and 13% of your pensionable pay depending on your contributions).

  • Family friendly policies: Maternity Leave - 39 Weeks Full Pay and Paternity Leave - 4 Weeks Full Pay.

  • Opportunities for Professional Career Development including funding for annual membership of a relevant professional body.

  • Employee Assistance Programme and Occupational Health Services.

  • Life Assurance (4 x annual salary).

  • Discounts – access to savings on a wide range of everyday spending.

  • Special Leave Policy including paid time off for volunteering, public service (including reserve forces) and caring.

Next steps:

Everyone who works at AWE brings unique skills and perspectives to the table. We recognise that great people don't always 'tick every box'. That's why we focus on your potential, your fit with our values, your transferable skills as well as your experience. Even if you don't meet every point above, but you feel that this role and AWE are a great fit for you, please go ahead and apply, we'd love to receive your application.

Important things you need to know:

  • We encourage you to apply promptly to avoid disappointment if applications are high and the role therefore closes.
  • You will need to obtain and maintain the necessary security clearance for the role. This will be funded by AWE. The nature of our work does mean you need to be a British Citizen who has been resident in the UK for the past 5 years in order to apply for SC clearance and 10 years for DV.
  • We want you to feel comfortable and able to shine during our recruitment process. Please let us know on your application form if you need any adjustments/accommodations during the process.
  • Our interviews typically take place over Teams and for most roles are a 1 stage process.

Please note that you must be a British Citizen to apply for a role with us.
