    • Experience applying finite element analysis and\/or hand calculations to inform engineering decisions.<\/li>\n
    • SolidWorks and ANSYS experience is desirable.<\/li>\n
    • Strong knowledge of design for manufacture, particularly for precision metal parts, CNC machining, and material selection.<\/li>\n
    • Proven ability to create manufacturing-ready drawings and apply tolerancing in line with ISO BS 8888 and GD&T requirements.<\/li>\n
    • Experience with opto-mechanical systems or other precision assemblies would be especially valuable, particularly where alignment accuracy and thermal behaviour are important.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      What is offered<\/h3>\n
        \n
      • Competitive pay.<\/li>\n
      • Benefits package.<\/li>\n
