CAD Design Engineer Permanent Full-Time
Salary - Circa £42,000 DOE
Location - In office, Hampshire
We are supporting a pioneering organisation on a mission to make zero-carbon heat the norm. Their cutting-edge technology stores clean energy, enabling renewable electricity to provide industrial heat on demand. With industrial heating responsible for nearly half of the world's energy use, this company plays a critical role in the global energy transition.
They are now seeking a CAD Design Engineer to support the development of their innovative thermal storage product, designed to replace fossil fuel boil55ers in industrial settings. This is an exciting opportunity to join a mission-driven, fast-paced team, applying your engineering expertise to refine designs for manufacturability, performance, and cost-effectiveness.
Responsibilities, but are not limited to
Develop 3D models for components, assemblies, and systems using SolidWorks, incorporating PDM and other change processes
Produce industry-standard technical drawings, including welding codes and BOMs (Bills of Materials)
Design for Manufacture (DfM): Ensure designs are optimised for scalability, cost efficiency, and high-quality production
Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and manufacturing engineers to develop practical solutions
Contribute to design reviews, testing, and field feedback to improve both prototype and production stagesExperiences required
Proficiency in SolidWorks (or similar CAD software) for 3D modelling and technical drawings with version control (e.g. Inventor, Solid Edge, Creo, CATIA, Fusion 360, Onshape, Siemens NX, Pro/ENGINEER)
Experience with mechanical & electrical design, ideally within a relevant industry
Expertise in weldments and fabrication within CAD
Strong understanding of Design for Manufacture (DfM), including GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing)
Experience with PDM SolidWorks or other data management suites is advantageous (e.g. Autodesk Vault, Windchill, Teamcenter, ENOVIA)
Knowledge of industrial heating or thermal storage technologies is advantageousPackage
