Harlow Recruitment
- A Mechanical Design Engineer plays a crucial role in the Aerospace and Defence industry, ensuring that all products and processes meet the highest quality standards.
- As a Mechanical Design Engineer, you will be responsible for 3D modelling, conceptual design to Modelling, 2D modelling, Design to manufacturing, material selection, and concession/Non-conformance (identifying, documenting, and resolving any non conformance issues that may arise during the manufacturing process).
- You will work closely with cross-functional teams to carry out design activities, investigate and analyze non-conformance reports, develop corrective actions, and implement effective solutions to prevent future occurrences.
Key Responsibilities
- Carry out detail design activities to meet the requirements of design to manufacture.
- Conduct thorough investigations of non-conformance issues, including root cause analysis and failure mode analysis.
- Collaborate with engineering, production, and quality teams to develop and implement design and corrective actions.
- Monitor and track the progress of corrective actions, ensuring timely completion and effectiveness.
- Provide technical expertise and guidance to resolve non-conformance issues and improve overall product quality.
- Maintain accurate documentation of non-conformance reports, investigations, and corrective actions.
- Participate in continuous improvement initiatives to enhance manufacturing processes and reduce non-conformance occurrences.
Required Skills (Technical Competency)
- Proficient in 3D CAD package for both modelling and drawing, ideally Solid Edge.
- Ability to interpret and create high quality engineering CAD models and manufacturing drawings, including GD&T.
- Experience in designing mechanical components, parts, assemblies and subassemblies for heavy industry, power transmission systems, gear and Gear box.
- Knowledge about subsystems that impact the mechanical design / layout of the design.
