Senior Mechanical Design Engineer

Birmingham (Hybrid)

Up to £55,000 + Pension + Flexible Working

Permanent

I’m working with an established and growing engineering business that supports global OEMs across construction equipment, trucks, agriculture, and wider industrial markets. With a strong international presence (UK, USA, Germany, Sweden, India, China), they’re continuing to invest in their UK engineering capability.

They’re now looking to bring in a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to support a pipeline of innovative projects—particularly within engine ancillaries and emerging e-pump technologies.

The Role

As a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer, you’ll play a key part in both concept and detailed design, working closely with a collaborative engineering team and engaging with customers and suppliers.

Key responsibilities:

  • Design and development of engine ancillaries (oil, water & fuel pumps)
  • Concept and detailed design of e-pumps for data centre applications
  • First-principles design and problem-solving across new product development
  • Create 3D CAD models and detailed engineering drawings
  • Ensure designs are optimised for manufacture (DFM focus)
  • Support DFMEA activities and engineering validation
  • Work closely with the Chief Engineer and cross-functional teams to resolve design challenges
  • Produce technical reports and documentation
  • Liaise with customers, suppliers, and internal stakeholders

What They’re Looking For

Essential:

  • Degree-qualified in Mechanical Engineering (or similar)
  • Minimum 5 years’ industry experience in a design-focused role
  • Strong 3D CAD skills (ideally Creo)
  • Experience designing with metals and plastics
  • Solid understanding of GD&T
  • Experience with DFMEA and Design for Manufacture (DFM)
  • Background working on electromechanical products

Desirable:

  • Experience with rotating components (bearings, seals, gears, pulleys)
  • Exposure to concept design and new product development

What’s on Offer

  • Salary up to £55,000
  • Flexible hybrid working
  • Pension scheme
  • Opportunity to work on innovative, forward-looking projects
  • Career progression within a growing global engineering group
