Do you want to work on cutting-edge projects in space, aerospace, defence, and industrial markets?

This role will involve supporting the design of in-house mounting arrangements for optics. The engineer will be critically involved with requirement derivation/flow down, review of requirements, and requirements management with respect to opto-mechanical technologies.

Design of mechanical components to support opto-mechanical system assembly and verification is also expected along with hands-on support during opto-mechanical system integration and testing.

As well as optical mountings, the role will also involve mechanical design and analysis work on our core products: Imaging packages for space and associated ground-based cryogenic test camera systems.

Essential Experience:

  • Ability and experience reviewing opto-mechanical designs, particularly overseeing sub-contractor design progression through gate reviews.
  • Working knowledge of CAD packages.
  • Design and analysis experience applicable to opto-mechanics.
  • Proven ability to manage, prioritise and organise own work and the work of others as required.
  • The ability to perform under pressure and to tight timelines.
  • Preparation of design documentation required for development gate reviews.
