The opportunity:
MBDA has a fantastic opportunity for a Cable / Harness Design Engineer to work within our growing Interconnects team designing bespoke electrical interconnects/cables suitable for the transmission of power, signal and data within and between subsystems in our products.
To do this you will need to interpret sub-system requirements and, from these, generate electrical schematics and cable design definitions on CAD and Zuken E3. You will need to be able to carry out investigations into a full range of cable problems and issues; developing and preparing solutions, either individually or as a member of a project team. The role also includes support to manufacturing in order to resolve any manufacturing issues, as well as supporting functional and environmental product trials.
This role provides a wide scope of tasks and a unique opportunity to broaden technically within a growing company and high capability design teams. Exposure to complex and technologically advanced projects and products provides a stimulating experience.
Working with highly talented and motivated engineers, in a friendly and supportive environment, provides one of the best environments to further career aspirations and achieve a real feeling of success.
What we're looking for from you:
Individuals will need to have demonstrable experience in cable/harness design, using relevant CAD packages such as Zuken E3 and HarnWare. The ideal candidate will have:
-
A minimum 2 years' experience in the use of E3.Cable and related products (E3.Formboard/ E3.3D Transformer beneficial).
-
A proven ability to define, deploy, and refine processes and best practices within E3. – including; electrical topology, wiring schematics and 2D manufacturing drawing processes and standards.
-
Proven ability to develop and deliver technical instruction to E3 users.
-
Thorough understanding of product data management and change management within Windchill or similar.
-
The ability to design cable assemblies based upon electrical constraints such as current, screening, signal types, volt drop, EMC and environmental requirements.
-
An appreciation of cable assembly production/process engineering.
-
Experience of PTC CREO Cabling would be beneficial.
Due to the nature of our work, experience of military Defence Standards and a working knowledge of D38999 connectors in support of cable harness manufacture is highly desirable.
Our company: Peace is not a given, Freedom is not a given, Sovereignty is not a given
MBDA is a leading defence organisation. We are proud of the role we play in supporting the Armed Forces who protect our nations. We partner with governments to work together towards a common goal, defending our freedom.
We are proud of our employee-led networks, examples include: Gender Equality, Pride, Menopause Matters, Parents and Carers, Armed Forces, Ethnic Diversity, Neurodiversity, Disability and more.
We recognise that everyone is unique, and we encourage you to speak to us should you require any advice, support or adjustments throughout our recruitment process.
