Mechanical Engineer (CAD Design & Prototyping) - up to £45k
Location: Full-time in office [Glasgow, United Kingdom]
Role Overview
You will design the core mechanical systems of the wind turbine, including structures, rotating assemblies, and modular interfaces. This is a practical engineering role focused on real hardware, manufacturability, and field performance.
About Regeno
Regeno is developing a modular and rapidly deployable wind turbine to lower the cost of clean energy, in the prototype stage, with its new patent‑pending mechanism and system. We are looking for hands‑on engineers to turn this idea into a reality.
Key Responsibilities
* CAD design of the tower, foundation and structural systems
* Design structural and mechanical components and assemblies
* Perform calculations and dynamic analysis for strength, stiffness, and fatigue
* Design rotating and load‑bearing systems with realistic tolerances
* Analysis of dynamic and vibration systems on Ansys
* Develop components, designs and methodologies
* Support manufacturing, assembly, installation, and maintenance design
* Lead or support prototype builds and failure investigations
* Contribute to system‑level design trade‑offs
* Cost‑benefit analysis of various components
Key Skills & Capabilities
* Practical mechanical design and sound engineering judgement
* Structural analysis, fatigue, and failure investigation
* Rotating machinery, bearings, and large mechanical assemblies
* CAD, drawings, and tolerance management
* Hands‑on problem solving and testing
How You Work
* Designs for simplicity, robustness, and ease of maintenance
* Comfortable getting hands dirty during builds and tests
* Uses testing to validate and improve designs
* Balances performance with manufacturability and cost
Nice to Have
* Experience with wind, renewables, or energy systems
* Harsh‑environment or offshore engineering
* Modular or field‑serviceable system design
* Startup or early‑stage product development experience
