Contract - Mechanical Design Engineer - Powertrain

Advanced Marine Propulsion | Outside IR35 | Coventry

Want to help develop the next generation of high-performance marine propulsion systems?

This is an opportunity to join an engineering-led business developing innovative outboard engines and powertrain technologies that are redefining performance, efficiency and reliability within the marine sector.

We're looking for experienced Mechanical Design Engineers to support the development of complex powertrain systems through to production. This is far more than a CAD modelling role. You'll be involved in solving challenging engineering problems, developing robust mechanical solutions and working cross functionally to bring innovative products to market.

What You'll Be Doing as Mechanical Design Engineer Powertrain

Designing and developing mechanical components and assemblies for advanced powertrain systems
Creating 3D CAD models and manufacturing drawings using NX
Supporting concept generation, design reviews, validation and product release activities
Performing engineering calculations and analysis to support design decisions
Working closely with manufacturing, test and development teams to resolve technical challenges
Ensuring designs meet performance, reliability and manufacturability requirements
Contributing to the continuous improvement of existing and future products
What We're Looking For

Degree qualified Mechanical Engineer or equivalent experience
Strong product development background within complex mechanical systems
Experience designing powertrain, drivetrain, transmission, hydraulic or similar mechanical systems
Proficiency in CAD, ideally Siemens NX
Strong understanding of GD&T and tolerance stack analysis
Practical engineering mindset with excellent problem-solving skills
Ability to work effectively within cross-functional engineering teams
Why Apply?

Outside IR35 contract
Work on a genuinely innovative marine powertrain programme
Exposure to world-class engineering challenges and advanced propulsion technology
Opportunity to influence products from development through to production
This is an excellent opportunity for engineers with automotive, motorsport, off-highway, aerospace, defence, marine or powertrain development experience who want to work on a product that is genuinely different from anything else in the market.
