Mechanical Engineer

Mechanical Engineer About the OpportunityWe're partnering with a highly respected, technology-driven engineering organisation. Due to continued growth, they are looking to strengthen their Great Yarmouth team with the appointment of a Mechanical Engineer.Working within a clean-room environment, you'll collaborate closely with Design, Production and Process Engineering teams to deliver high-precision jigs, fixtures and laser-processing tooling that support complex, high-integrity products.The RoleKey responsibilities include:

• Designing jigs, fixtures, nests, alignment systems and handling tools for microelectronic assembly
• Producing detailed 3D models, assemblies and technical drawing packs using SolidWorks, Creo or similar CAD software
• Developing tooling solutions compatible with clean-room and ESD-controlled environments
• Designing specialist tooling for laser processing, including alignment, clamping and thermal management solutions
• Collaborating with Production Engineering to resolve bottlenecks and improve throughput and yield
• Supporting first-article builds, process validation and troubleshooting activities
• Defining manufacturing requirements for machined, 3D-printed and laser-cut components
• Working with suppliers to deliver compliant, cost-effective tooling solutions

This is a hands-on engineering role where your designs will directly influence manufacturing performance and product quality.About YouWe're looking for:
