Mechanical Engineer

Role Title

Mechanical Engineer

Reporting Line

Will report directly to the Head of Propulsion.

Department Overview

The Propulsion Department sits within Energy Solutions and is responsible for delivering all mechanical design, engineering, and integration activities for the propulsion system within eFoiler® systems and standalone propulsion technologies. It is critical for the delivery and performance of all Artemis Technologies vessels and is expanding its footprint within the company.

Role Summary

This role supports the fast‑paced, exciting development of cutting‑edge propulsion systems. You will use your experience to contribute to the conceptual development and detailed design of propulsion systems, components, and assemblies for our range of Artemis eFoiler® products. The focus is on the mechanical design and integration of complex electromechanical systems, including electrical energy storage, alternative fuels, and power delivery systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Collaboratively work with the team to deliver the design and integration workstreams, being responsible in contributing to planning workstream activities and ensuring components and assemblies satisfy design requirements and are delivered on time and in budget.
• Develop solutions from a blank sheet through to detailed drawings for machined, cast, fabricated and additive manufactured components and assemblies using 3DX (CATIA V6).
• Mature and develop system bill of materials, drawings and product life management.
• Break down and report the system’s design against required regulations.
• Specification of materials, surface finishes, treatments and component tolerances to ensure assembly and endurance requirements are met in harsh marine environments.
• Ensure system and component designs are optimised for weight, cost and efficiency whilst being compliant with requirements for certification.
• Compile and author technical documentation to support test, manufacturing processes and customer information.
• Support the boat development programmes where required.
• Engage in the introduction of new technology to ATL where appropriate.
• Attend team and 1‑1 meetings and fulfil reporting requirements as required by Artemis Technologies.
• Ensure compliance with Artemis Technologies Policies and procedures as outlined in the Company handbook.
• Build good working relationships across Artemis Technologies.
• Contribute to shaping a culture that reflects Artemis Technologies values and guiding principles and enables the company to achieve its goals.

Person Specification – Education / Qualifications & Experience

• University degree in Mechanical Engineering or other relevant engineering discipline such as Automotive or Aerospace (2:1 Hons or above), or HND and 3+ years’ experience working in an innovative engineering team.
• 3+ years in a marine / motorsport / aerospace setting is desired.
• Experience with Electric Drive Units (EDU), engines or high‑performing mechanical systems is preferred.
• Experience with electrical systems LV or HV is desired.

Key Technical/Design Skills

• Work in a team of engineers to generate concepts from a blank sheet of paper and develop robust concept selection methodologies, ensuring concepts are feasible and deliver on critical project requirements.
• Ability to plan and execute test plans to verify or validate system requirements.
• Experience in 3D design of precision engineered components and assemblies using CATIA V5/V6, other packages will be considered.
• Design experience in high quality, detailed drawings for manufacture which support manufacture, inspection, and assembly.
• Firm grasp of a range of manufacturing processes and their associated limitations (e.g., moulding, stamping, forming, machining, casting, welding etc).
• Knowledge and familiarity with material selection and surface treatments for highly loaded systems in a harsh marine environment.
• Experience of research and development through analysis, prototyping and testing.
• Applying a ‘first principles’ approach to solve challenging new problems, capable of completing hand calculation to guide initial design decisions.
• Working independently with minimal guidance and displaying strong initiative is critical.
• Strong understanding with model‑based design and simulation / CAE techniques desirable.

Communication Skills

• Good report writing skills – clear, concise and well structured.
• Excellent interpersonal skills.

Teamworking

• Ability to relate well to others, and build co‑operative and collaborative working relationships, both internally and externally.
• Organisational skills.
• Ability to coordinate with other departments and flag issues.
• A focus on ‘delivery’ to an agreed schedule.
