Senior Product Design Engineer

Senior Product Design Engineer
Are you a mechanical engineer who believes great product design is about more than just function? Do you obsess over details that make a product feel intuitive, robust, and visually striking? We re looking for a Senior Product Design Engineer to lead the design of precision-engineered products where form, function and user experience all come together seamlessly.

Join a collaborative engineering team that s passionate about designing products that not only work beautifully but look the part too.
What You ll Be Doing:

• Own the end-to-end design process of mechanical products from concept generation and prototyping through to production release.
• Develop high-quality, manufacturable CAD models and detailed drawings using SolidWorks (or similar).
• Design mechanical components and assemblies that are both elegant and performance-driven.
• Select appropriate materials and manufacturing processes, balancing form, function, and cost.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams in engineering, prototyping, and production to bring designs to life.
• Champion design intent across all phases ensuring that visual appeal doesn t come at the expense of performance or reliability.
• Take a lead in DFM, FEA, testing, and design reviews, contributing both creative and technical leadership.
• Contribute to a culture of continuous improvement and design excellence.

What You ll Bring:

• A degree in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design Engineering, or similar.
• Extensive experience in product-focused mechanical design ideally in a high-quality, small-batch or bespoke manufacturing environment.
• Strong 3D CAD skills ideally SolidWorks, but others considered (e.g. Creo, Inventor).
• Solid understanding of manufacturing processes (injection moulding, CNC machining, metal fabrication, 3D printing).
• Confident in tolerancing, GD&T, material selection, and design for assembly/manufacture.
• A keen eye for aesthetics, usability, and product feel with examples of designs that blend engineering with intuitive user experience.
• A hands-on mindset able to build, test, and refine your own ideas quickly and practically.

Why You ll Love Working Here:

• You\’ll get to shape products from the ground up, not just tweak existing designs.
• Real design freedom and ownership backed by a team that values both technical rigour and creative vision.
• A collaborative environment that encourages curiosity, challenge, and learning.
• Work on products that combine engineering integrity with standout design.

If you re passionate about engineering design that looks right, feels right, and performs flawlessly we want to hear from you.
