Work on engineering challenges that don’t have answers yet - and get to invent the tools that make solving them possible. But this isn’t a place for ego-driven ‘eureka’ moments. It’s a place for deep, thoughtful engineers who prove their ideas before pitching them.
Instead of refining existing products, you’ll be building bespoke test equipment from scratch.
It’s a chance to get stuck into serious technical work. From fine tolerances and precision metrology to soldering surface-mount electronics, you’ll be involved in every detail. And it’s not just one discipline - you’ll be mixing mechanical design, electronics, instrumentation, fluid dynamics and thermal systems in a single project.
The expectation is that engineers form and test their own hypotheses, cross-checking with multiple forms of validation — not just gut instinct or theory. And we've all been there, where you're sat designing a part that you have no idea if it can be manufactured. If you don’t know how a machinist would make your part, you shouldn’t be designing it
And as you develop new solutions to these unique challenges, you’ll naturally grow into an even more influential position. You’ll have the chance to shape how things are done and pass that knowledge on to others as the team scales.
What you’ll do
* Design, assemble, and operate high-precision industrial rigs and components—where tolerances are measured in microns, not millimeters.
* Drive quality outcomes with hands-on ownership—every component you touch impacts lab results and test performance.
* Bring understanding: not only of the how behind measurement and alignment, but the why behind every tolerance, material choice, and design constraint.
What you’ll need
* Strong mechanical design engineering experience, especially in designing manufacturable parts and working with tight tolerances
* Hands-on skills in assembly, testing, and jig design, plus familiarity with pneumatic systems
* Previous experience working in a commercial R&D function
Please only apply if you have high-precision, hard-material/mechanical engineering and design experience, as well as an understanding not just how, but why the systems are built a certain way.
About the company
They develop advanced pipeline rehabilitation technology. Their engineering challenges combine fluid dynamics, composites, instrumentation, and high-precision mechanics - giving you the chance to work at the cutting edge of what's possible in engineering.
So if you're someone who can lead themselves, take feedback, and drop bad ideas fast and humility is non-negotiable, you'll fit right in and develop your career.
You can whatsapp me on 07801545514 or apply, all confidential! If you don't have an up to date CV - don't worry, apply with what you have and we can talk through the rest.
