Title: Senior Mechanical Design Engineer Location: Dundee, UK Contract: Long-term, multi-year project Position Summary An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to join a high-performance team working on innovative electro-mechanical devices. This role will involve both the development of new products and ongoing support for existing systems, providing a challenging yet rewarding environment. The successful candidate will play a key role in designing and optimising mechanisms that form the heart of complex systems used in self-service and automated solutions. You will work closely with cross-functional teams including operations, suppliers, and customer service to ensure high-quality, cost-effective designs that meet rigorous industry standards. If you have a strong background in mechanical design, with experience working on systems that combine mechanical and software controls, this could be the perfect role for you. Key Responsibilities Design and support new products and lifecycle updates for existing mechanical systems. Develop and optimise mechanical designs, ensuring alignment with project requirements and manufacturing capabilities. Lead and support design validation, including stress analysis, tolerance checks, and testing. Collaborate with engineering teams to ensure the integration of mechanical and software components. Ensure design changes are thoroughly documented and approved through the required systems. Maintain a high standard of communication with internal teams and suppliers to ensure timely project delivery. Conduct design reviews and problem-solving sessions to ensure product reliability and performance. Occasionally travel globally to customer sites for support or analysis as required. Qualifications & Skills Degree in Mechanical Engineering (2:1 or higher preferred). 5 years of experience designing and supporting complex electro-mechanical systems. Expertise in high-speed, automated mechanical systems, including document handling and transportation mechanisms. Strong experience with CAD software (ProE/Creo, Solidworks, or similar). Ability to analyse designs using stress analysis, tolerance checks, and simulations. Proficient in designing mechanisms and working with materials such as plastics, sheet metal, and composites. Experience in rapid prototyping technologies and working with suppliers to implement design changes. Strong problem-solving abilities with a focus on cost-effective design solutions. Ability to work independently while managing multiple projects simultaneously. Willingness to travel globally to support product development. To apply, please submit your CV using the following link
