Job Description

Are you a Mechanical Design Engineer looking for a role where your work genuinely matters? A well-established engineering manufacturer in the Teesside area is looking to bring an experienced Mechanical Design Engineer into their team on a permanent basis.

The Opportunity

As a Mechanical Design Engineer, you will take ownership of the design and development of mechanical components and systems, working from concept through to production-ready outputs. This is a hands-on role with real variety — no two projects are the same, and you will be working closely with colleagues across engineering, manufacturing, and commercial teams to deliver solutions that meet demanding technical specifications.

The Role:

  • Design and develop mechanical components and systems using SolidWorks
  • Create detailed schematics and drawings for manufacturing
  • Conduct root cause analysis to troubleshoot design issues
  • Carry out mathematical structural calculations to support design creation and analysis
  • Collaborate with internal teams to ensure designs meet technical specifications

What They're Looking For:

  • Proven mechanical design engineering experience
  • Proficient in SolidWorks — including 3D modelling, assemblies, and technical drawings
  • Degree or HNC in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline
  • Strong mechanical knowledge with an understanding of system design
  • SolidWorks Simulation / FEA experience beneficial — training available for the right candidate

The Package:

  • £40,000–£45,000 depending on experience
  • Non-contractual performance bonus 
  • Monday to Thursday 08:00–16:30, Friday 08:00–15:30
  • 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays
  • Westfield Health cash plan after probation — includes dental, optical, GP appointments, gym discount, and more
  • Free on-site parking

If you are a Mechanical Design Engineer based in or around Teesside and are looking for a stable, well-supported role with a business that invests in its people, we would love to hear from you.
