Principal Engineer developing high - performance mixed - signal IC designs for Analog Devices. Leading broadband communication systems integration and collaborating with global teams on advanced architectures.
About the role
- Mechanical Design Engineer focusing on design and testing of mechanical subsystems for waste management solutions. Collaborating on product lifecycle in a fast-paced environment with real responsibility.
Responsibilities
- Take ownership of key mechanical subsystems within Qualibot and Quantisort 2.0, designing, testing, and improving components.
- Work across both the design and production teams, based mainly at our manufacturing centre in east London, with occasional site visits.
- Focus on improving pneumatic ejection performance and packaging components to operate reliably in harsh, high-throughput environments.
- Help move projects through client plant design, build, factory acceptance testing, and installation, while continuously improving processes to support scalability.
- Design and develop mechanical components and assemblies in SolidWorks, including sheet metal, welded structures and full assembly drawings.
- Own supplier engagement: RFQs, DFM discussions, cost reviews and order placement.
- Design and iterate subsystems within the Quantisort 2.0 optical sorter (control panels, ejection systems, structural elements and vision system integration).
- Conduct value engineering and cost-reduction initiatives.
- Support installations and commissioning across Europe.
- Provide first-line engineering support for field issues and contribute to root cause analysis.
- Contribute to DFM/DFA improvements, build documentation and process optimisation.
- Support R&D projects (e.g. pneumatic optimisation across varying waste streams).
- Participate in design reviews and contribute to technical decision-making.
Requirements
- On track for at least a 2.1 in Mechanical Engineering or an equivalent subject
- Highly proficient in SolidWorks, including sheet metal design, weld drawings and assembly drawings
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
- Strong understanding of core mechanical engineering principles, including tolerance stack-ups and fitment
- A proactive mindset in identifying problems and proposing improvements
- Understanding of common manufacturing processes (e.g. laser cutting, bending, machining, welding)
- Basic understanding of pneumatics or automation systems
- Able to balance cost, performance and manufacturability when making design decisions
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
- Passionate about environmental issues and solving problems within the recycling industry
- Good written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to document work clearly
- Comfortable working cross-functionally with hardware, software and operations teams
- Open to some travel within Europe
- Within a commutable distance from London (4–5 days per week in Stratford)
- Hands-on practical engineering experience (e.g. workshop projects, Formula Student, robotics teams, prototyping work)
- Experience assembling and installing equipment in situ
- Experience working with sheet metal fabricators and machine shops
- Experience rendering 3D models to a professional standard for marketing material
