This is an engineering design role within the dynamic, fast-growing environment of Carbon ThreeSixty, a recognised leader in advanced composite design and development.
You will be responsible for design and development of various types of mould tooling, jigs and fixtures required to fulfil the manufacture of a range of advanced composite components. You will also be responsible for contributing to the development of manufacturing processes using your tooling designs to achieve robust and repeatable production that meets all technical and commercial requirements.
You will work on projects and components across industries including automotive, aerospace, defence, energy and more; and at project phases from R&D prototyping through to serial production.
Regular tasks include: concept‑level and detailed CAD modelling, drafting including GD&T, BOM and cost management, contributing to assembly/test/commissioning activities, participation in design review sessions (both internal and external), responding to tooling/process feedback and modification requests from the Production team.
You should be a highly capable individual with excellent attention to detail, a methodical working approach, a solid engineering background with a sound understanding of and ability to apply fundamental engineering first‑principles, and a desire to deliver the best possible solution at all times.
Applicants should have a tertiary qualification in a relevant engineering discipline and an enthusiasm for problem‑solving. Previous experience working with composites, carbon fibre, moulding processes or jig & fixture development is an advantage but not a necessity.
Key Responsibilities
* Develop tooling designs, technical drawings and process instructions for manufacturing and inspection of composite components
* Ensuring the smooth introduction of new tooling and equipment into production with the Manufacturing Engineers and Production Managers
* Customer and supplier liaison, and supporting with customer RFQ and technical queries
* Troubleshoot issues with the production team, and implement robust solutions to address these
* Support the implementation of process instructions and quality alerts where appropriate
* Ensure existing products are managed, issues identified, promptly addressed and continuously improved
* Implement ad‑hoc engineering requests of production in a controlled and traceable manner
