This is a very busy and full on role, suited to someone with some industry or manufacturing experience.
The role involves utilising AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor to produce quality mechanical designs within time and budget constraints. Knowledge of drawing standards and a high attention to detail is essential as is the ability to carry out accurate design calculations on welded steel structures.
It involves providing shop floor engineering support to welders and fitters, providing technical support to site engineers and project managers, as well as directly communicating with suppliers and higher level management. Thus excellent communication skills are essential and knowledge of the manufacturing assembly process is required. Further to this a credible knowledge of hydraulic systems would be an advantage, and a willingness to get your hands dirty.
Requirements:
- Minimum 2:1 degree in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent.
- Excellent computing skills are a must, with a basic level of programming desirable. Use of Microsoft Office especially Excel is required.
- Experience in industry ideally in design (short term placements are fine)
- Excellent CAD skills, preferably with workplace experience in Autodesk Inventor and AutoCAD. Candidates with experience in Solidworks and or Solidedge will be considered.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
