Full job description

Product Development Engineer

Ashford, Kent | Hybrid working | £30,000 – £40,000 DOE

Are you an experienced Engineer who enjoys getting under the skin of a product, solving problems and working out why something isn’t working – and how to make it better?

We’re recruiting exclusively for an established international organisation looking to add a talented Engineer to a specialist product engineering team.

This isn’t a graduate role and it isn’t purely CAD/design. We’re looking for someone with real-world engineering experience who can combine practical technical ability with problem solving, testing, documentation and confident communication.

You’ll be supporting established engineered products throughout their lifecycle, investigating technical issues, helping maintain continuity of supply and working with colleagues and suppliers across different functions and locations.

There is flexibility around level: someone earlier in their engineering career with strong relevant experience could come in and develop, while a more accomplished Engineer could take greater ownership of complex projects and technical decisions.

What will you be doing?

Investigating product, component and technical issues and working through solutions
Planning and carrying out engineering tests and evaluating the results
Supporting design changes, improvements and corrective actions
Using CAD where required to support engineering and design activity
Reviewing drawings, specifications and technical documentation
Working with manufacturing, quality, commercial and other engineering teams
Supporting projects involving existing products, components and processes
Managing your own workload and taking ownership of technical actions
Producing clear and accurate engineering documentation
Working with colleagues and stakeholders internationally
For a more experienced hire, taking the lead on projects and supporting less experienced Engineers

What are we looking for?

This role needs someone who already has a solid engineering foundation and can demonstrate relevant experience in industry.

Previous professional engineering experience is essential – this is not a graduate opportunity
A degree/HND/HNC or equivalent technical background in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, Manufacturing Engineering or a closely related discipline
Good all-round mechanical/product engineering knowledge
Experience investigating and troubleshooting technical or product-related problems
Exposure to engineering testing, validation, verification or similar practical technical work
Ability to confidently interpret technical drawings, specifications and documentation
Some CAD/design experience
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
Excellent attention to detail
Comfortable working within structured processes and documented procedures
Able to communicate confidently with technical and non-technical stakeholders
A proactive approach – someone who will investigate, question and take ownership rather than wait to be told what to do
Full UK driving licence and your own transport
Existing unrestricted right to work in the UK – sponsorship cannot be provided

Experience within a regulated, quality-led or highly controlled engineering/manufacturing environment would be particularly attractive, but we're open to different industry backgrounds where the underlying engineering skills are transferable.

Why consider this opportunity?

£30,000 – £40,000 salary, dependent on the depth and relevance of your experience
Scope for the role to be shaped around your existing level of expertise
Hybrid working, with regular time at the Kent office
Join a specialist engineering team working as part of a much larger international organisation
Genuine variety – combining problem solving, testing, design, projects and cross-functional work
Exposure to international teams and stakeholders
Opportunity to take increasing technical ownership as you develop
A role where your engineering decisions have a genuine impact on established products
Excellent opportunity for someone who wants to broaden their experience rather than become pigeonholed into one narrow area of engineering

Please note: the upper end of the advertised salary range is reserved for candidates bringing substantial, directly relevant engineering experience and the ability to operate with a high level of independence from the outset.

Pay: £30,000.00-£40,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Canteen
Company pension
Flexitime
Free parking
Health & wellbeing programme
On-site parking

Application question(s):

Do you hold a full UK driving licence and have access to your own vehicle for commuting to the Ashford area?
Do you have the permanent Right to Work in the UK without sponsorship?
Do you have more than 2 years' experience in a relevant mechanical engineering product development role?

Work Location: Hybrid remote in Ashford (Kent, South East Region)
