Engine Systems Engineer

As a result of growing demands for our award winning range of diesel engines and a number of exciting engine development programmes, we are seeking multiple Senior Systems Engineers.

This role can be a mix of on site working and REMOTE working.

You will be responsible for taking new engine systems and components from concept to flawless launch, ensuring a robust system/component sign-off meeting all regulatory, quality, cost and timing requirements. 

The role:

"              Deliver engine systems/components from concept to delivery - from specification, through analysis, testing and development, to engineering sign-off.

Responsibilities:

"              Create system and component specifications and design (cascaded from programme targets) - using/commissioning the relevant analysis tools to support data driven design decisions.

"              Develop system and component FMEAs, and DVPs.

"              Co-ordinate and supervise DVP tests/analyses (analytical, rig, engine and machine)

"              Resolve engineering issues using recognised methodologies

"              Write systems test and development technical reports for own responsible areas

"              Support programme gateways and reviews

"              Support engineering sign-off with robust test and validation data and technical reports

"              Provide clear communication and support to all customers, engineering teams and suppliers:

o             Coordination with other functional areas, such as programme teams, purchasing, quality, other development teams

o             Monitor and report status to relevant parties

o             Highlight issues in a timely and appropriate manner

"              Supplier management:

o             Work in a simultaneous engineering environment to support the development plan, ensuring design for manufacture and assembly.

o             Manage suppliers via the APQP process

o             Work with suppliers to deliver prototypes and PPAP parts to schedule, meeting quality and performance requirements

"              Communicate lessons learned; propose design guide/process updates.

Skills:

"              Working level experience of 2d drawing and 3d modelling in Siemens/Unigraphics NX platform advantageous

"              Working level experience of PLM tool (e.g. Siemens Teamcentre) advantageous?

Person Specification

In addition to a passion for engineering, a proven track record of delivery, and a desire to be 'hands-on' with projects from concept to completion, the candidates will:

"              Have a degree in an associated mechanical engineering discipline, with a sound understanding of Mechanical Engineering principles (showing an attention to detail, and being data driven).

"              Have a sound grasp of the engine product development cycle, and expertise in engine system and component specification, design, development and sign-off (using relevant tools)

"              Ideally, have experience with an engine manufacturer or Tier 1 supplier

"              Demonstrate good project and supplier management skills, and  good commercial awareness

"              Be able to work well under pressure and to meet tight deadlines

"              Demonstrate an ability to communicate clearly and concisely at all levels
