Redesigning the same machine for the fifth time this year?
Stuck tweaking someone else’s concept when you’ve got game-changing ideas gathering dust? It’s time to do something about it.
This role isn’t about marginal gains. It’s about bold ideas, clean-sheet thinking, and solving mechanical challenges that haven’t been solved yet.
A high-growth engineering team is looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer who thinks beyond the brief. Someone who doesn’t just ask how, but why not?
You’ll be part of a team working at the cutting edge of automation and special purpose machinery. But don’t worry, there’s no stale hierarchy here. No fifteen-layer approval process before you can move a bolt. Just smart people building clever solutions.
The gig’s fully remote, with the occasional trip to HQ or a client site - maybe once a quarter. So if you’ve got the discipline to manage your time and the creativity to manage complexity, you’ll thrive here.
The real draw?
* Concept ownership, not just detail drawings
* Direct input on system architecture, mechanisms, and motion control
* Exposure to full project lifecycles, from scribble to sign-off
* Tools, budget, and backing to innovate
* A leadership team that actually wants your ideas, not just your time
You’ll love this if:
* You’ve designed entire systems, not just bolted onto others’ work
* You’re fluent in SolidWorks and speccing actuators in your sleep
* You get a buzz from R&D-heavy, “never been done like this before” projects
* You care about design integrity as much as output speed
* You’ve worked in automation, robotics, or special purpose machinery - and loved the problem-solving
Not for you if:
You need a rigid brief to feel comfortable. This is for people who thrive in the grey space between "idea" and "execution".
Sound like the sort of challenge you’ve been itching for?
