Love CAD designing new concepts and building making things? This role is for you !
Lead Engineering Design - £38k-50k
Location: Full-time in Office, Glasgow,
Scotland
The Role
You will lead the design team and development of a new modular wind turbine, taking it from early concepts through detailed design, build, and physical testing.
You will work across the full engineering lifecycle — modelling, component design, virtual testing like CFD/ FEA, assembly, integration, testing, and iteration. The role will needs real engineering decisions under real-world constraints.
About Regeno
Regeno is startup, developing a rapidly deployable, modular wind turbine that is simple to install and easy to maintain. The system is designed for practical use and scalable production, targeting a global energy market.
What You’ll Do
Lead the engineering
* Own the overall technical design of the wind turbine system
* Set system architecture, requirements, and interfaces
* Make pragmatic trade-offs across performance, cost, reliability, and manufacturability
Build and test real hardware
* Lead hands-on design, prototyping, testing, and iteration
Certification and safety
* Lead safety engineering, FMEA, and compliance with relevant standards (e.g. IEC 61400)
* Work directly with certification bodies and regulators
Lead a engineering team
* Mentor and guide a small, practical engineering team
* Set a culture of ownership, curiosity, and hands-on problem solving
Support the business
* Work with suppliers and manufacturing partners
* Contribute to cost modelling, scalability, and investor discussions
Experience
Minimum 2 years
