Are you a mechanically minded problem-solver with a passion for turning ideas into real-world solutions?

We're looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join our growing engineering team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to further their experience in Mechanical Design Engineering. Solidworks composer experience preferred and sheet metal and engineering experience required.

What You'll Be Doing:

You'll spend approximately 70% of your time developing concept designs and the remaining 30% focused on design modifications and improvements. While the role is primarily office-based, you'll also conduct occasional client site visits to oversee product installations at the final stages of each project.

On a daily basis, you'll manage a mix of projects-typically leading one main project while supporting several smaller ones. Your responsibilities will include:

• Developing initial concept ideas

• Producing 3D models predominantly with some 2D design work

• Creating detailed parts drawings

• Sourcing and ordering components from suppliers

• Supporting prototyping and testing phases

• Handing over designs to production

• Preparing technical manuals

• Participating in on-site installations at client locations

• Creating technical documentation

• Occasional international travel required to sign off installations

• Experience SolidWorks composer for rendering and assembly documentation is a requirement

Experience

• A degree in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline

• A strong knowledge and experience using SolidWorks Composer (preferred)

• Previous works in sheet metal/fabrication

• Ideally have experience with cradle to grave project management

What we can offer

• Mentorship from experienced engineers and clear progression pathways

• Hands-on exposure to exciting projects from concept to production

• Ongoing training and professional development/Courses

• A supportive and innovative work culture

• Design and develop mechanical components and systems using CAD software.
• Create detailed 3D models, 2D drawings, and Bills of Materials (BOMs).
• Perform engineering analysis, including stress, strain, and thermal simulations.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (electrical, software, manufacturing).
• Specify materials and manufacturing processes for new designs.
• Support prototype development, testing, and validation activities.
• Troubleshoot and resolve mechanical design issues.
• Contribute to design reviews and technical documentation.
• Ensure designs comply with industry standards and regulatory requirements.
• Stay abreast of new technologies and design methodologies.

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
• Minimum of 4 years of experience in mechanical design and product development.
• Proficiency in 3D CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, CATIA, Inventor).
• Experience with FEA/CFD simulation tools.
• Strong understanding of material science and manufacturing processes.
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.

About Arondite

Arondite is building the next generation of autonomous systems, software and AI to solve the world's most important frontier problems across defence, critical industries and the humanitarian sector. We are looking for mission-driven engineers who want to be part of a highly motivated team and build things that make a positive difference.

The Role

We are looking for talented and flexible mechanical design engineers to own cutting-edge mechanical projects from concept through to mass production, working with electronics and systems engineers to build fully integrated products. The designs will prioritise ease of use and high-reliability, without compromising aesthetics. Some products may centre around seamlessly integrating off-the-shelf parts, whilst others will be totally custom designs, or some combination of the two.

You will liaise with suppliers to build prototypes and set up manufacturing, as well as support customers to analyse any failures and continuously identify areas for improvement.

As an early hire within a start-up, you will have the opportunity to set up and drive the mechanical design within the company and potentially lead the function as we continue to expand and build a broader range of products. Regardless of experience level, you will review the output of other engineers and provide feedback - everyone’s input is valued.

Requirements

You should apply if you have:

• BSc/BEng or MSc/MEng in a technical or engineering subject
• Practical experience using a major 3D CAD/CAM tool, ideally Solidworks, to create parts for 3D printing, injection moulding, machining and sheet metal fabrication
• Solid grasp of the physics behind mechanical design principles
• Experience of integrating electromechanical and electronic components within mechanical designs
• Hands-on workshop skills to create, integrate and adapt parts for prototyping and testing
• An appreciation of aesthetic elements of product design

Note: The above describes the perfect candidate. We encourage you to apply even if you only partially fulfil this list!

Nice to have:

• Experience with Ingress Protection design and certification
• Knowledge of military robustness standards such as MIL-STD-810
• Exposure to European CE Marking and/or US NRTL marks
• Understanding of design for electromagnetic compatibility

All engineers at Arondite are expected to:

• Communicate effectively within a multi-disciplinary team of hardware, software and AI engineers
• Be resourceful and open-minded in seeking solutions to engineering challenges
• Teach themselves to be the expert, if we don’t already have one in a particular area

Please note: This is an in-person position based in London. The successful candidate must by the start of their employment have permission to work in the UK.

Benefits

We offer:

• The opportunity to work with world-class engineers on a wide range of technologies
• Free training and education to quickly fill knowledge gaps
• The best resources and equipment required to do your job
• Exposure to working closely with customers on real problems
• Free meals and snacks in the office
• 7% employer pension contribution
• Employee Stock Options for everyone, so we all have a stake in the company’s growth
• Relocation support
