Build the machines behind next-generation healthcare technology. This Leeds-based Graduate Manufacturing Engineer role offers hands-on exposure to robotics, automation and mechatronics, with the chance to take equipment from early prototype through testing and commissioning.
The Company
Based in Leeds, this growing technology business advanced technologies for healthcare product delivery. You will join a practical engineering environment where ideas are developed, tested and refined into working equipment. The company offers exposure to emerging manufacturing technology and the opportunity to contribute to products with real-world applications. You will work closely with experienced engineers, gaining valuable technical knowledge while helping develop new automated equipment from prototype through commissioning.
The Role
As a Manufacturing Engineer, you will help turn engineering concepts into reliable automated manufacturing equipment. This is a hands-on equipment development position rather than a production management or traditional continuous improvement role. You will spend significant time building, modifying and testing machinery, working with mechanical assemblies, robotics, sensors, cameras and actuators. You will also use CAD, prototyping and structured fault-finding to solve technical challenges. Reporting to a Lead or Senior Manufacturing Engineer, you will have room to grow your skills across mechatronics, automation, robotics and manufacturing engineering.
- Build, modify and commission automated manufacturing equipment.
- Integrate robotics, sensors, cameras, motors, actuators and mechanical components.
- Troubleshoot mechanical, electrical and process-related equipment faults.
- Create CAD models, drawings, bills of materials, jigs and fixtures.
- Prototype components using 3D printing and practical workshop methods.
- Complete functional, repeatability, cycle-time and endurance testing.
Benefits and Perks
- Variety - You will be exposed to a range of experiences across manufacturing, allowing insight into the start-to-end processes.
- Hands-on - You'll develop the opportunity to use a variety of CAE-based packages.
- Early responsibility - Due to the practical nature of projects, you'll be able to make an impact from day 1, making a difference to the team's production capacity.
- Real-world projects - Working on products that are actually going to market.
Requirements
- A 2:1 (or equivalent) in Mechanical, manufacturing, mechatronics, robotics or closely related engineering background.
- Practical experience with robotics, automation or automated electromechanical systems.
- Essential industrial placement or year-in-industry experience in an engineering environment.
- Must be able to start late September/ October.
