    Core Responsibilities:

    Crafting innovative concepts to address the technical needs of new products.

    Conducting design feasibility studies; detailing assumptions, calculations, analysis, results and conclusions in technical reports to guide product development.

    Designing and developing new product concepts including system level evaluation through to detailed calculation, design, testing and analysis.

    Supporting and trouble-shooting the introduction of new products into pilot production.

    Skills / Experience Required:

    Engineering or Physics degree (or equivalent)

    Experience in precision, high tech or medical device engineering roles, with responsibility for new product technical development
