Job Description Job titles: Mechanical Engineer Salary: up to £55k Location: Swansea This role focuses on hardware-level redesign and optimization of mechanical systems for functionality, performance, and compliance. It requires expertise in mechanical principles rather than aesthetic design. The engineer will collaborate with R&D, manufacturing, and quality assurance teams to ensure high product standards. Responsibilities Design and develop mechanical components using SolidWorks, including 3D solid and surface modelling. Create detailed 2D technical drawings with appropriate tolerances for manufacturing. Ensure designs are optimized for high-volume production. Utilize 3D printing for prototyping, usability testing, and functional validation. Conduct performance testing on prototype and pre-production components. Analyze test data to inform design refinements. Assist in preparing technical documentation, including drawings, test reports, and design risk assessments (DFMEA, DFM, DFA). Requirements Several years of experience in mechanical or product design. 2 years' experience in SolidWorks. Strong ability to analyze data and interpret results for design improvements. Solid knowledge of plastic injection moulding and its applications.
