What you will do<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Take the lead on mechanical engineering activities for the development of electric machine and motor technology.<\/li>\n
  • Produce motor designs that satisfy performance goals, durability expectations, and cost constraints.<\/li>\n
  • Make sure the mechanical and thermal behaviour of the motor remains reliable across all operating conditions.<\/li>\n
  • Carry out and maintain detailed FMEA work and associated risk mitigation actions.<\/li>\n
  • Set up and execute structured verification and validation plans for the design.<\/li>\n
  • Support design validation through hands-on build and test activities.<\/li>\n
  • Assist with the handover of products from development into production.<\/li>\n
  • Work collaboratively with cross-functional engineering teams from concept through to release.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    What the employer is looking for<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • Proven background in electric machine or motor design, with particular strength in mechanical and thermal engineering aspects.<\/li>\n
    • Experience designing rotor systems, including magnet retention approaches and operation at high speed.<\/li>\n
    • Knowledge of stator design and winding integration.<\/li>\n
    • Practical, hands-on experience with motor assembly, testing, and validation.<\/li>\n
    • Experience leading and performing FMEA and failure analysis activities.<\/li>\n
    • Understanding of air-cooled thermal management techniques.<\/li>\n
    • Evidence of working successfully in multidisciplinary engineering teams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Package and application<\/h3>\n
        \n
      • The position is based in Norfolk, England.<\/li>\n
      • A competitive salary is offered, together with benefits.<\/li>\n
