GBR Recruitment Ltd are delighted to be working in full exclusivity with a leading Agricultural Farming Machinery manufacturer, recruiting for an experienced Technical Engineer to design, re-design, modify, and develop existing products including features across the Agri machinery product range and to work on NPD/NPI. This is an exciting Agri engineering opportunity for an engineering professional that wants to play a key role in current product enhancements and developments, plus working heavily in the R&D for NPD with a view of taking conceptual ideas through to NPI.
In this key role, you need to be strong in electro hydrodynamic (EHD), hydraulics, pneumatic, mechanical systems, and electrical/electronic systems. Some knowledge of 3D CAD software would be an added advantage but not a must. Experience in ECR/ECN systems, BOMs, and project planning is required. If you are highly passionate about influencing product innovation, driving continuous improvement, and want to help shape the future of our clients' Agricultural machinery products and engineering processes, then this is the role for you.
Duties:
- Leading the integration of control systems across the Agri machinery, including engines, drive pumps, motors, hydraulic valves, operating controllers, and pneumatic control systems.
- Carrying out engineering processes including ECR/ECN systems, BOMs, and project planning.
- Creating and maintaining timelines for strategic engineering projects (i.e. integrating new components onto the machinery, with a full breakdown on engineering costs and project delivery timings).
- Supporting sales and purchasing with accurate costing and quotations.
- Driving CI and product innovation (NPD, R&D, NPI).
- Working in close collaboration with the design engineers to ensure control system requirements are reflected in machinery designs.
- Compiling technical documentation and ensuring compliance.
- Supporting quality systems and ISO standards.
- Mentoring, coaching, and developing Engineers in technical knowledge.
- Getting hands-on in the workshop or out in the field when required.
Attributes Required:
- Mechanical Systems (hydraulic, hydrostatic, pneumatic systems).
- Electrical and Electronic systems (CANBUS communication, general off-highway wiring principles).
- Experience within a technical engineering, design, and development environment within Agricultural machinery, Crop management machinery, Mobile Construction Plant machinery, Off Highway machinery, Specialist vehicles, or similar.
- Strong understanding of engineering principles and NPD, R&D, NPI.
- Strong project engineering management skills.
- Ability to fault find and rectify technical issues in an efficient manner.
- Degree in a relevant engineering discipline (Mechanical, Electrical, Mechatronics, or equivalent experience).
Interviews are to take place immediately, and there is an opportunity to start in this role in August or September depending on individuals' notice periods. This key role could suit an engineering professional working as a Testing & Development Engineer, R&D Engineer, Precision Agriculture Engineer, NPD Engineer, Control Systems Engineer, Design Engineer, Process Engineer, or Field Service Engineer.
