A leading engineering and manufacturing organisation is seeking a Configuration & Product Definition Engineer to join its Design team. You'll take ownership of the technical configuration and product definition of complex mechanical and electromechanical assemblies across the full lifecycle — from development through production and into in-service support — acting as custodian of build definitions and product data within the PLM system, and ensuring engineering changes are accurately controlled and released on schedule.
Key responsibilities:
* Define, maintain and manage product build definitions within the PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) system.
* Control the release of product definition data in line with programme schedules and delivery milestones.
* Manage engineering changes, change notices and problem reports across production, development and customer activities.
* Support non-conformance investigation and resolution for production and in-service equipment.
* Maintain configuration integrity as upgrades, developments and contract changes are introduced.
* Take ownership of specific hardware assemblies and their technical baseline.
* Work with Configuration Management, Manufacturing and engineering teams (UK and international) to resolve issues and support build activities.
What we're looking for (useful but not all essential):
* Experience in PLM, Configuration Management or Design Definition processes.
* Delivery of complex engineering products in a regulated or technically demanding environment.
* Knowledge of mechanical assemblies incorporating hydraulic and/or electrical equipment.
* Experience of engineering change and non-conformance activities.
* Understanding of systems engineering principles and requirements management.
* Knowledge of hardware design, manufacture or integration processes.
* Strong organisational, prioritisation and communication skills
