Company: Jobtailor
Apply for the Electromechanical Design Engineer
Location: Glasgow
Job Description:

Responsibilities

  • Design and develop electromechanical assemblies, including mechanisms, actuators, housings, and electrical interfaces.
  • Collaborate with electronics, systems, mechanical and manufacturing teams to ensure seamless integration.
  • Support prototype development and provide design input during build, integration and verification activities.
  • Produce 3D CAD models, detailed drawings and tolerance analyses in line with project and industry standards.
  • Consider environmental, vibration, thermal and materials factors during design and analysis.
  • Participate in design reviews and technical discussions with internal teams and customers.
  • Generate design documentation, including BOMs, design notes, and verification-related material.

Qualifications

  • Degree level qualification in Mechanical, Electromechanical, or Mechatronics Engineering (or related discipline).
  • A lower qualification would be acceptable for example HNC/HND should the candidate be able to demonstrate significant demonstrable relevant experience in lieu.
  • Strong mechanical design fundamentals.
  • CAD proficiency (SolidWorks, Creo, Inventor or similar).
  • Understanding of DFM/DFA.

  • Understanding of environmental and qualification considerations (vibration, shock, thermal).
  • Ability to design sealed or ruggedised enclosures.
  • Awareness of defence, aerospace or industrial standards and practices.
  • Experience delivering electromechanical design within a regulated or safety-critical environment (defence, aerospace, industrial, rail, medical).
  • Working with electromechanical systems such as motors, actuators, sensors or harnessing.
  • Supporting prototype build, integration and verification from a design perspective.
  • Designing for environmental demands including vibration, shock, thermal and ingress protection.
  • Producing detailed CAD models, drawings and tolerance stack-ups in a professional engineering environment.
  • Designing sealed or ruggedised enclosures or assemblies.
  • Collaborating with multidisciplinary teams including electronics, systems and manufacturing engineering.
