CHD Design Works are looking for an experienced concept engineer to join our specialist motorcycle design team at our design studio and engineering office in the English Midlands.
Responsibilities
Motorcycle design, from blank-sheet to concept release (and often beyond) for our OEM client projects, working closely with our OEM client's engineering teams (across 3 continents), and also for CHD's own projects and for internal studio support when necessary.
Experience Required
Real-world design experience with motorcycles is essential, preferably with one of the main Europe-based OEMs .
Significant experience of both chassis and engine design will be a strong advantage to the ideal candidate and a high level of proficiency with PTC CREO would be perfect.
If you also have an aptitude for the design of aesthetic surfaces and a sympathy for form then you might have just hit the jackpot and ticked all our boxes.
If you're looking to move to a hands-on design environment where the breadth of work is as broad as your OE experience and where you'll need to solve problems using your combined industry knowledge to find a way forward whatever the challenge, then you might just have found the job for you!
We are a small team and the capabilities of each individual are key to our success.
Qualifications and Commitment
Ideally degree level, or equivalent, in mechanical, motorsport, automotive or motorcycle engineering.
An affinity with and a passion for motorcycles is essential and a detailed knowledge of motorcycles, manufacturing processes and development requirements is a fundamental part of the job.
