At Safran Electrical & Power, we recognise that aviation needs to innovate and change in order to protect our environment. We believe that future aircraft power systems will be hybrid-electric or full-electric, which is why we are working to develop and deliver advanced electrical solutions to help decarbonise flight.

The UK Safran Electrical & Power team has expertise in designing and developing electrical systems comprising generators, power conversion, distribution and control, with developing expertise in electric motors for aircraft propulsion.

If you want to help deliver this future, we are looking for enthusiastic and creative people to join our team.

The Role

As a Mechanical Engineer in our Product Design team at Safran Electrical & Power you will help to deliver robust designs and work packages using Catia and NX CAD software to high tolerances for use in the aerospace industry. These will be designed to meeting stringent manufacturing, quality, cost and weight targets. You will be responsible for developing innovative mechanical design solutions, to current and future aerospace industry challenges, on existing and next generation smart motor and power generation technologies. Although mostly produced from Metallic materials, some exposure to design and application of Composite materials would be beneficial to this role.

• Create and support the definition of robust mechanical design solutions, for R&D / R&T project/s, by ensuring the designs are technically robust, fit for purpose and meet both the business and customer needs.
• Deliver engineering solutions that meet 'Design to Cost' and 'Design to Manufacture/Assembly' requirements.
• Produce and maintain CAD models, drawings and parts lists that are compliant with all company standards, associated within the work packages assigned to you.
• Produce and report on Design Assurance documentation, including; design reports, test procedures and Hand/Stress calculations, such as interference fits, thermal growth, hoop and tensile stresses, thread loadings and tolerance analyses.

Complementary Description

Get involved:

We also have a number of groups and forums onsite that you can get involved with, including Women at Safran, STEM ambassadors, employee forum, charity partnerships and wellbeing programme.

Our Wellbeing Programme in Pitstone aims to place employee wellbeing at the heart of our business, and we integrate it within all that we do. The programme is made up of four wellbeing committees; Healthy Minds, Physical, Social & Financial. Our enhanced family friendly policies re-enforce our commitment to providing a workplace that is both diverse and inclusive.

Job Requirements

We are looking for candidates with a range of skills and experience, but we're also keen to help people grow and develop in this role. If you have some or all of the following, we'd love to hear from you:

• A Mechanical, Automotive, Aerospace or Aeronautical Engineering degree or equivalent qualification/work experience
• Experience delivering work packages and the ability to guide other Engineers in a team
• Understanding and experience of using Windchill, or similar PLM tool such as Teamcenter
• Mechanical design experience with ideally with some exposure to rotating equipment such as shafts
• An understanding of engineering materials and production methods – e.g. lay-ups, filament winding
• Some exposure to composite applications – particularly shafts, tubes or rotating parts
• Substantial experience of using 2D & 3D CAD software – ideally Catia and NX
• Experience of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing
• Good working knowledge of MS Software i.e. Excel, Word, PowerPoint
• Ability to communicate clearly, through written and verbal means, to all levels within the business and be able to interact easily with other Engineering teams
• Specific knowledge of electrical generation or electrical motors technology is also beneficial
• If you have experience in the design of other similar complex system types then you may have skills we are interested in and we would welcome your application
