Mechanical Design Engineer
Further expansion of the Companies development activities means that they need a Mechanical Design Engineer who can design and prove the thermal and mechanical elements of their single board computer products.
Requirements:
They need an established mechanical design engineer, educated to graduate level and with experience of designing thermal and mechanical solutions for electronic products in harsh environments. Ideally this experience will involve bus-based modular boards, products dissipating 60W or more and BGA packaged electronic components. A familiarity with VME or CompactPCI bus systems would be perfect, but is not required. Practical experience of the thermal and mechanical issues involved in designing for rugged environments such as airborne or ground vehicle mounted equipment would be a significant advantage. In all cases, you need to demonstrate an ability to design cost-effective and compact solutions which have excellent thermal transfer characteristics.
You must be prepared to liaise as necessary with both their own designers here and overseas, and with local subcontractors for the manufacture of the mechanical parts and product testing. Above all, this means that you must be independent and a self-starter, able to plan and carry out your work with little supervision and with the ability to deliver effective results in short timescales.
The Company uses SolidWorks for mechanical design, and CF Design for thermal analysis, so familiarity with these tools is very desirable, though not essential.
Benefits:
Very competitive salary package with relocation allowance where appropriate. Company-supported private pension scheme. Non-contributory private medical and health insurance schemes.
