We’re looking for a Design Engineer to develop advanced, mission‑critical armoured vehicle structures and mechanical subsystems used across global defence platforms. This role sits at the core of our engineering capability: you’ll be creating robust, engineered solutions that survive the toughest operational environments, not maintaining legacy assets or producing stylised surface models.
You’ll thrive here if you enjoy practical, hands-on mechanical engineering, solving real‑world challenges, and taking ownership from concept through to production. Working within a highly technical environment, you’ll influence everything from welded fabrications and machined components to vehicle integration and manufacturability. If you’re passionate about engineering that has genuine purpose, this role offers that in abundance.

What’s in it for you?

At NP Aerospace, we know our success comes from our people. That’s why we invest in benefits that support your health, reward your hard work, and help you grow your career:
*

In this role, you’ll take responsibility for designing mechanical systems and structures for armoured vehicles, from early concept layouts through to low‑ and medium‑volume production. You’ll produce detailed 3D CAD models, assemblies and drawings, focused primarily on fabricated, welded, and machined components.
You’ll work closely with Engineering, R&D, Fabrication and Manufacturing teams to develop practical, build‑ready solutions. You’ll manage BOMs and drawings through our PLM system (Windchill), support vehicle integration activity, and contribute to prototype builds, shop‑floor problem solving, testing and iterative design refinement.
This is a varied role in a specialist engineering team, offering hands‑on involvement across the full product lifecycle and the opportunity to meaningfully shape next‑generation defence technology.
What we’re looking for:
We’re looking for someone with strong mechanical engineering capability, practical problem‑solving skills, and a mindset geared towards real-world mechanical design. You’ll ideally have:
* ​A degree in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent hands‑on engineering experience
* ​Experience in defence, heavy automotive/off‑highway, aerospace, rail, industrial machinery or other high‑integrity engineering sectors
* ​Proficiency in 3D CAD — SolidWorks is essential, with experience in Creo (or other parametric CAD such as Inventor/NX) considered highly desirable
* ​A practical understanding of fabrications, weldments, machining and low‑volume manufacturing techniquesStrong drawing capability, including tolerancing and GD&T
