Fulrum Engineering & Technical Divisions, are acting as an Employment Business on behalf of our Clients. We are proud to be an Equal Opportunities Employer. We are currently recruiting for our Client, in the Ipswich, Woodbridge, Colchester areas, for personnel at all levels who are qualified/skilled/experienced as
Mechanical Design Engineer
Office-based in Colchester, Essex, you will work closely with our electronics, board layout and other mechanical and thermal engineers at all the different stages of board development, for both rugged and more benign environments. Our design team operates in a small company environment which means that most design are completed by an individual engineer. As a result, each engineer rapidly becomes involved with all aspects of the product design and development. Short design timescales are an important part of our development strategy, which also results in our engineers being involved in many different product designs quite quickly.
Essential Skills / Experience:
You must be a very practical, Âhands-on person, comfortable using a variety of hand and power tools.
You will be a good problem-solver, with the ability to reason independently and reach good engineering solutions.
You must be educated to HNC/HND or NVQ level 3 standard with industry experience of designing small or precision components, ideally for electronic product packaging or similar environments.
You must be independent and a self-starter, able to plan and carry out your work with little supervision and with the ability to deliver effective results in short timescales.
Familiarity with SolidWorks is essential.
Desirable, but not Essential, Skills / Experience:
An appreciation of change control procedures, e.g. ECO/ECN systems.
A good understanding of tolerances and their effects in real-world production.
Some awareness of thermal management techniques, especially in electronic product design.
Previous involvement in environmental testing, e.g. shock, vibration or thermal tests.
A background in product development for airborne or ground vehicle equipment.
Benefits:
Very competitive salary.
Optional stakeholder pension scheme (with a generous company contribution).
Life assurance.
Private health insurance.
Relocation allowance where appropriate.
Mechanical Technician
The Job:
You will work closely with our other mechanical and thermal engineers, as well as with the electronics engineers, at all the different stages of product development. You will also be involved in the testing of new products and maintenance of existing designs.
Essential Skills / Experience:
Practical, hands-on skills, comfortable using a variety of hand and power tools.
Educated to ONC standard with industry experience of designing small or precision components, ideally for electronic product packaging or similar environments.
Independent, but willing to learn and able to take on new tasks.
Familiar with SolidWorks.

Benefits:
We offer a very competitive salary, with an optional stakeholder pension scheme (with company contribution). There are also optional life assurance and private health insurance schemes.
Environmental Test Engineer
The main focus of this role is the preparation of our products in representative test systems, performing the tests internally or attending them externally, and producing reports of the tests carried out. Currently, the environmental tests include shock & vibration, temperature and EMC, but could include others in the future, as the needs of the business change. Some of the testing will require travel to other locations off site and possibly overnight stays. Flexibility in working hours is also required, with early starts, late finishes and some weekend working required.
The role typically but not exclusively involves the following:
Preparation of a representative test system including determining a suitable chassis, back-plane, test fixtures and other connectivity to allow a representative set of the functionality to be exercised. Software will be required to achieve the latter and creation or modification of software test scripts would be expected
Some problem diagnosis and problem solving resulting from the environmental tests would be expected.
Responsibility for ensuring that the environmental tests are performed according to the specification required.
Maintaining accurate and correct test records and test reports to a quality level acceptable for potential customer distribution. This shall include some product packs for ruggedised products.Mechanical Engineer

Qualifications Candidates should have an engineering qualification to degree/HND/HNC level, be able to demonstrate practical experience of some functional or environmental testing of computer-based equipment, and have an electronic hardware bias. They are expected to be familiar with some or all of the following:
Building and configuring computer systems from parts (e.g. motherboard, data storage, cooling, power supply).
Understanding computer systems at a functional level.
Installing and configuring Windows and Linux operating systems and drivers.
Creating and amending software scripts.
Understanding and meeting the requirements of military and commercial test specs for environmental testing.
Performing vibration and shock tests using electro-dynamic shaker test equipment. Understanding the Design requirements for test fixtures required for mounting test items to the aforementioned equipment.
Diagnosing and finding practical resolutions to technical problems.
Familiarity with VME, VPX, CompactPCI or AMC single board computer systems would be an advantage.
You will be part of a small team with a high level of responsibility for your own work, so you will need to have the ability to work to demanding timescales, and be able to maintain a high level of enthusiasm and commitment to the projects. The successful candidate should have an ability to organise and prioritise their own work, be methodical, well disciplined, have attention to detail and show good inter-personal skills.
