An established space and aerospace engineering organisation is looking for a Mechanical Engineer to support the design and development of complex, precision-engineered products.

You’ll take mechanical designs from concept through to manufacturing, working across product development, test equipment, tooling and associated assemblies.

This is a 6-12 month inside IR35 contract with strong likelihood of extension.

Key Responsibilities for the Mechanical Engineer

- Develop mechanical designs and manufacturing drawings using Creo.
- Support SRR, PDR, CDR and other design reviews.
- Produce design reports, test plans and technical documentation.
- Work with manufacturing and process engineers to deliver practical solutions.
- Resolve complex design challenges and support FEA, thermal and stress analysis.
- Consider DFM, DFA, materials, cost and lead times throughout development.

About You

- Mechanical Engineering degree or equivalent.
- Experience in space, aerospace or similarly complex engineering.
- Strong Creo/CAD experience.
- Experience with structured design reviews and product development.
- Knowledge of materials, manufacturing and mechanical systems.
- FEA/thermal/stress analysis experience desirable.
- ECSS, MIL-STD, Windchill or requirements management experience advantageous.
