The posting

Introduction

Are you a curious and creatively minded individual studying product design engineering and looking for exciting and fulfilling experiences? Do you have creative flare and a passion for design for manufacture and assembly? Would you like to contribute to a wide selection of products for clients in the Industrial, Consumer, Energy and Defence industries?

You may be a graduate, or a candidate with a couple of years of industry experience. You can expect this role to include a mixture of desk-based and practical tasks.

Successful candidates can join us on a 6 or 12 month industrial placement.

There is no deadline for this role, as we recruit on a rolling basis. Once the position is filled, we will close the advert. We encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

Your role

The Realisation group is responsible for dynamic hardware development of products, in both high and low volume markets following the guiding principles of Design for “X” (DfX) with particular emphasis on design for manufacture and assembly (DFMA). The group operates from product conception and design all the way through to manufacture and product launch, often bridging the gap between novel technology and high volume manufacture. Our work spans a range of industry sectors, such as consumer electronic products, energy sensors and metering, sustainability and agricultural systems.

The Realisation group is home to some of the most talented and passionate design engineers in the UK, who bring together their collective knowledge and skills to deliver elegant technical solutions. Our projects often involve the development of novel manufacturing techniques and complex supply chain management.

Some examples of some of our more recent exciting and challenging projects we have worked on include:

UK G’ment: An emergency ventilator for COVID-19 patients, approved by the MHRA and with supply chain secured:

Accesso Technology Group: Award-winning smart wearable for theme park guests:

Vinfusion: An app lead personalised wine blending and dispensing device with a touch of theatre:

This may include:

  • Taking part in concept generation and problem-solving workshops
  • Preparation of detailed designs in CAD, from system to component level, using design for “X” (DfX) e.g. manufacture, cost, assembly etc best practices
  • Contributing to the development of manufacturing solutions
  • Manufacturing of parts and assemblies, hands-on or by liaising with suppliers
  • Testing of designs to ensure they meet the client’s and end customers’ needs

What you can bring

  • A successful Graduate Product Design Engineer in the Mechanics and Design Department will have the ability to:
  • Communicate with peers and clients to understand their problems and present solutions
  • Design elegant solutions to clients’ problems using DfX best practices

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
