• Excellent communication skills and the ability to interact confidently with clients and stakeholders.

• A collaborative approach, a positive attitude, and the ability to support a high-performing studio culture.
  
  

Tools & Experience

• High proficiency in SolidWorks for complex assemblies, detailed components, and engineering drawings (FEA/CFD exposure beneficial).

• Strong visual communication skills—sketching, CAD visuals, presentations—with a refined eye for form and detail.

• Experience integrating electronics, sensors, and microcontroller-based prototypes (Arduino/Raspberry Pi a bonus).

• Good working knowledge of Adobe Suite and MS Office.

• Practical workshop skills and confidence building physical prototypes.
  
  

Experience & Education

• Degree in Product Design, Industrial Design, Mechanical Engineering, or similar.

• 5 years’ industry experience.

• Proven experience taking physical products through the full design-to-production journey.

What’s on Offer

• A full-time role based in a modern, purpose-designed Hampshire studio.

• Flexi-time around core hours and a half-day on Fridays.
