Job Title: Mechanical & Plastics Design Engineer
Location: Leicester
Job Type: Full Time / Permanent
Job Salary: 40k - 42k
The Role
This role will support the engineering team with the design of electrical equipment for a range of industrial and automotive applications. This will include the use of finite element analysis (FEA) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and 3D modelling software. The role is pivotal to the business to develop innovative solutions to meet customer specifications and develop products for new market applications.
It is essential that this individual has an excellent grasp of mechanical engineering as well as a good knowledge of plastic material properties and the associated moulding processes.
Duties and responsibilities:
* Perform mechanical, fluid dynamics and thermal analysis to verify and enhance designs using both manual calculation and multi-physics simulation finite element analysis software (Ansys).
* Be the lead engineer in the development of our Power Prove product, working closely with the R&D department to specify, plan and oversee product testing.
* Contribute, as part of a wider team, in the collating and submission of PPAP documentation and support the quality department in the APQP application.
* Produce 3D models and assemblies. Issue designs for manufacture by producing engineering drawings and supplementary documentation.
* Adhere to the quality system for example using ECOs (Engineering Change Order) to document changes.
* Conduct technical investigations, develop and maintain appropriate design and support processes, carrying out root cause analysis and initiating corrective action as necessary.
The Candidate
* High level of skill with FEA/CFD analysis software.
* Comprehensive knowledge of at least one modern 3D modelling package.
