ROLE PURPOSE AND OVERVIEW:
Within Clients Industrial Power Systems Division (IPSD) Component Engineering are responsible for mechanical design and development of engine design for engines up to 7 litres which are used in a range of machine platforms. The successful applicant for this position will join the Component Engineering department and will take responsibility for the development activities of Core engine components and systems designed and manufactured by Client s Industrial Power Systems Division. Core components includes incylinder block/head sealing systems bolted joints bearings geartrain pumps lubrication & cooling system componentry FEAD. Included within these systems is a strong focus on CO2 reduction enabling technologies.
Each project offers the opportunity to work on the design and development of engines intended to meet the latest emissions legislation with worldclass levels of quality and reliability. You will be part of a small friendly team working together to deliver programmes that are critical to the longterm success of a respected global company.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
Ideal candidates would have a development and component ownership experience knowledge of IC engines and be able to plan and execute challenging tasks/projects with minimal supervision
Key skills for this role are data extraction/analysis failure analysis and problem solving application of simulation tools and methods and practical application of theory and concepts.
BACKGROUND/EXPERIENCE:
Strong technical background (HNC or technical degree preferred in mechanical or automotive engineering) though other qualifications or experience are equally valued. Incumbents must have demonstrated excellent analytical skills and the ability to perform complex assignments. Requires a selfstarter with strong technical skills. Must have ability to communicate technical information effectively with team members and others in the work group as well employees in other units customers and suppliers.
