Derby, United Kingdom Rolls-Royce Full time

Description

Mechanical Design Engineer (Process Equipment) - Submarines

Full Time

Derby/ On-Site

Why Rolls Royce?

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join our Dockyards Project team at Rolls-Royce Submarines in Derby.

We’re a leader in propulsion system design and development for the Royal Navy’s nuclear submarine fleet and the sole provider and technical authority.

Join us and we’ll provide an environment where you can be yourself. An inclusive, digital-first culture that invests in you, gives you a platform for continuous learning, and access to an incredible breadth and depth of opportunities to grow your career.

As a Mechanical Design Engineer this is a great opportunity for you to get involved in all stages of product development, from feasibility and concept, through design, build, development, training and implementation. You will work as part of a team consisting of mechanical, systems and EC&I engineers utilising support from other functions around the Submarines Business and wider enterprise. Components and/or systems delivered to the dockyard are generally required to support the Nuclear Steam Raising Plant (NSRP) during maintenance periods.

The projects will be fast paced with delivery dates which are challenging. This is an exciting time to join what is a growing part of the Submarines business.

We offer excellent development, a competitive salary and exceptional benefits. These include bonus, employee support assistance and employee discounts.

Your needs are as unique as you are. Hybrid working is a way in which our people can balance their time between the office, home or another remote location. It’s a locally managed and flexed informal discretionary arrangement. As a minimum we’re all expected to attend the workplace for collaboration and other specific reasons, on average three days per week.

What you will be doing:

You’ll be developing fit-for-purpose, innovative engineering solutions, from concept to implementation, against customer and governance requirements, whilst adhering to stringent time, cost and quality constraints.

Developing requirements, determining feasibility, and deriving concepts for NSRP interfacing fluid system rigs. Producing design solutions and engineering drawings, then presenting at gated design reviews to demonstrate all key requirements have been met. Producing development test plans, then performing trials and demonstrations to fully validate and commission capabilities. Producing operating procedures, training personnel, and supporting initial on-site implementation activities.

Who we’re looking for:

At Rolls-Royce we embrace agility, are bold, pursue collaboration and seek simplicity in everything we do. These principles form our values and behaviours and are an essential component of our assessment process and are fundamental qualities that we seek for all roles.

This role would suit a Design/Development Engineer with experience working on cradle to grave design projects for bespoke process equipment including pipework, valves, pumps, heaters and generators or special purpose machinery. Experience in the Oil and Gas, Food Process Plant and other specialist capital equipment design would fit well with this requirement.

Design and development experience, preferably bespoke process plant equipment (pipework, valves, pumps, heaters and generators), and the production of the associated technical documentation. An understanding of sound engineering principles, including: design for manufacture, design for assembly and maintenance and health and safety. Familiarity with design tools/techniques and proficient in the use of CAD, ideally Siemens‑NX. A Mechanical Engineering qualification, or equivalent experience.

We are an equal opportunities employer. We’re committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives. And the more perspectives we have, the more successful we’ll be.

By building a culture of respect and appreciation, we give everyone who works here the opportunity to realise their full potential.

You can learn more about our global Inclusion strategy at

To work for Rolls-Royce Submarines you need to hold a Security Check (SC) clearance without any caveats to that clearance. Rolls-Royce will support the application for Security Clearance if you don’t currently already have this in place. 

Due to the nature of work the business conducts and the protection of certain assets, you must hold a UK nationality . Any dual nationals will require additional scrutiny and background checks prior to commencing work with RRSL.

Closing date: 28th April 2024
