Join ICOMAT – Revolutionising the Future of Lightweight Manufacturing!
iCOMAT is an advanced manufacturing company that invented Rapid Tow Shearing (RTS) - the only proven technology for producing defect-free curved-fiber composite parts at industrial scale. We deliver the lightest structures possible for aerospace, automotive, defense, and space, at a rate and cost efficiency that far exceeds existing composite production processes.
We build and operate automated factories for composite materials, delivering components to Tier 1 suppliers and OEMs. The business has three main divisions: development of automated production machines, development of software design and production tools, and operation of the factory. We work with 25+ customers and completed the largest ever Series A in composites manufacturing to fuel a significant scale-up, with growth plans that will see the business multiply in size over the next two to three years and expand operations into the UK, Europe and the US.
The business has currently more than 130,000 sqm of production capacity with manufacturing facilities in the UK (Gloucester and Swindon) and the US (Dayton, Ohio); a Hardware R&D Centre in Bristol, UK; and a Software R&D Centre in Athens, Greece.
You will be the technical engine of the Swindon CNC shop. From the moment an enquiry lands, you will lead the manufacturing engineering work that turns a drawing into a credible quote, then into a production-ready package once the order is won. You will work alongside our wider Manufacturing Engineering team and report into the leadership running the site.
This is a hands-on, high-impact role at a site that is on track to deliver £1m+ of revenue this year and to scale from there.
What will you be doing?
Lead the manufacturing engineering input into customer quotations: process planning, cycle-time estimation, tooling strategy, fixturing approach and accurate cost build-up.
