Job Description
Senior Design Engineer
Complex engineered products | Real ownership | Build things that actually ship
Let’s skip the corporate jargon.
If you’re a senior design engineer who’s tired of:
* endless drawing revisions
* slow decision-making
* layers of approvals
* or projects that never leave the screen
…this might be the change you’ve been looking for.
We’re partnered with a specialist engineering business that designs and builds heavy-duty, real-world equipment used in demanding environments across the globe.
Not theory. Not paper designs.
Actual products. Built. Deployed. Used.
And they need a proper engineer — not a CAD jockey.
The role
You’ll own projects end-to-end.
Concept → design → build → testing → delivery.
You’ll be trusted to make decisions, solve problems, and engineer solutions that work in the real world — not sit in meetings defending slide decks.
Small team. High standards. Zero passengers.
If you like autonomy, accountability, and meaty engineering challenges, you’ll fit right in.
What you’ll be doing
* Leading mechanical design of complex assemblies and systems
* Turning rough concepts into manufacturable products
* Working closely with production and suppliers to make designs buildable
* Solving practical engineering problems (the kind you can’t Google)
* Improving products that operate in tough, high-performance environments
What they’re looking for
* Senior-level mechanical/design engineering experience
* Strong 3D CAD capability
* Experience designing equipment, machinery, or fabricated systems
* Someone who takes ownership and finishes what they start
* Straight talkers. Doers. Problem solvers.
(No ego. No politics. Just good engineers.)
Why this one’s different
* Real technical ownership
* Faster decisions, less bureaucracy
* Varied, challenging projects
* Direct access to leadership
* Products you can actually point at and say “I built that”
* Competitive salary + benefits
This isn’t for everyone.
It’s for engineers who want responsibility, impact, and interesting problems.
If that sounds like you, apply or message me directly for a discreet conversation.
