We are looking for a Mechanical Design Lead to lead the mechanical design & development of battery packs, battery modules and electrical enclosure systems for a range of advanced electrification applications.
This is still a hands-on role with some managerial requirements and scope to grow a team of mechanical engineers.
The Mechanical Design Lead will be responsible for:
- Leading all mechanical design activities across battery, power conversion and electrification projects.
- Driving the design and development of battery modules, battery packs and electrical enclosure systems.
- Leading the packaging of electrical and electronic components, connectors, harnesses and high-voltage interconnects into robust mechanical assemblies.
- Creating and reviewing 3D CAD models, component designs and manufacturing drawings.
- Working with suppliers and manufacturing partners to optimise designs for cost, quality and manufacturability.
- Managing component databases, BOMs and engineering documentation in line with company processes.
The Mechanical Design Lead will have:
- A degree in Mechanical Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Significant experience designing and packaging battery systems, electrical assemblies and mechanical structures within prototype and production environments.
- Strong experience producing manufacturing drawings and assembly documentation from 3D CAD models.
- Advanced CAD experience using SolidWorks, CATIA or Siemens NX.
- Strong understanding of Design for Manufacture (DFM), Design for Assembly (DFA), GD&T and tolerance analysis.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced battery design engineer to lead the development of next-generation energy storage systems, working at the forefront of electrification technology within a collaborative and innovative engineering environment.
