Why join Marshall Land Systems in this role This is a great opportunity for a Mechanical Design Engineer who wants variety, hands-on engineering exposure and the chance to develop within a strong mechanical design team. This is a Mechanical Design role, focused on the design, development, modification and support of complex physical products. You will use Autodesk Inventor for 3D CAD, detailed design and drawing production, with Windchill PLM used for product data management, configuration control, engineering change and release. At Marshall Land Systems, our mechanical design engineers do not work on the same product day after day. Our programmes are varied, technically challenging and often bespoke, meaning every project brings a different engineering problem to solve. Our teams work across a wide range of specialist land systems, including deployable infrastructure, command and control modules, medical and support facilities, protected mobility solutions, mission systems and complex vehicle-mounted equipment. The work is practical, varied and meaningful, with engineers involved across design, build, integration, production support and in-service improvement. One project may involve developing structural solutions for a welded frame, another may require packaging equipment into constrained spaces, while another may focus on supporting manufacture, resolving build issues, updating design data or contributing to bids and modifications. You will not be working on the same product every day. Each programme brings different technical challenges and gives engineers the opportunity to keep learning, solve new problems and build a broad engineering skillset. You will be part of a supportive mechanical design team, working from our modern offices in Cambridge and collaborating with colleagues across Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Supply Chain and Operations in the UK and Canada. For someone who wants to grow technically and see their designs become real physical products, this is a strong opportunity. This is a hybrid role, with an expectation to be onsite in Cambridge around 70% of the time. The role A Mechanical Design Engineer is required to support the design, development and delivery of robust mechanical solutions across bids and projects. The role will help provide continuity of design intent, maintain configuration control and support effective coordination across programme, manufacturing, supply chain, quality and integration stakeholders. Working as part of a wider engineering team, the role will involve developing requirements, producing and checking engineering data, creating and updating 3D models and 2D drawings, supporting configuration control and contributing to the delivery of safe, compliant and manufacturable solutions. The successful candidate will use Autodesk Inventor for 3D modelling, detailed design and drawing production, with Windchill PLM used to manage product structures, item data, configuration control, engineering change and release. The successful candidate will work closely with colleagues across Engineering and Operations in both the UK and Canada, supporting the delivery of products and systems that meet customer, regulatory, cost and schedule requirements. This is engineering you can see. Our teams work on real physical products, support them through build and integration, and often remain involved as designs mature through trials, production and in-service use. Your responsibilities will include Support the design and development of mechanical solutions across bids, projects and product modifications. Create, amend and support the checking of mechanical design outputs, including 3D models, 2D drawings, item lists, product structures and associated engineering data. Use Autodesk Inventor to develop 3D models, assemblies, drawings and practical mechanical design solutions. Use Windchill PLM to support product data management, configuration control, engineering change, item data, Bills of Material and release activity. Gain exposure to the full engineering lifecycle, from early concept and bid support through to design, build, integration and in-service updates. Support the generation and development of design requirements from stakeholder and customer needs. Contribute to the development of mechanical architectures and practical design solutions. Work to regulatory, customer and Marshall processes, ensuring engineering outputs are safe, compliant and fit for purpose. Support the preparation and checking of technical documentation, including design data, technical reports and certification evidence. Maintain product, drawing and document configuration control. Work collaboratively with Mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, Quality, Supply Chain and Operations teams. Support design for manufacture and assembly activities, working with production and manufacturing teams to develop practical and efficient solutions. Assist with design queries, inspection reports, technical issues and warranty-related investigations. Support technical input into bids, statements of work and project documentation where required. Identify opportunities to improve design quality, cost, manufacturability and delivery performance. Contribute to continuous improvement and challenge existing ways of working where appropriate. Develop your technical capability with support from experienced Senior and Principal Engineers. Contribute to real physical products where good engineering judgement, attention to detail and practical design make a visible difference. What makes someone successful here We are looking for engineers who enjoy solving practical problems, working with others and taking ownership of their work. The best people in our team are curious, hands-on, comfortable with detail and able to balance technical quality with programme needs. You do not need to have worked on exactly the same products before. Experience in aerospace, defence, automotive, rail, special purpose machinery, heavy engineering, structural fabrication, vehicle systems, marine, energy or other complex engineering environments could all be relevant. What matters is your ability to think clearly, work from requirements, produce robust design solutions and collaborate across functions. You will be joining a team that is technically strong, approachable and supportive. We value engineers who share knowledge, help others, challenge constructively and take pride in delivering good engineering. What we are looking for Apply if you have most of the following: Degree qualified in Engineering, Mathematics or Physics, or equivalent relevant experience. Experience in mechanical design engineering within a complex or regulated environment. Experience producing or supporting mechanical design outputs, including 3D models, 2D drawings, item lists, product structures and associated design data. Experience using Autodesk Inventor for mechanical design would be beneficial. Experience with other 3D CAD systems will also be considered. Experience using Windchill PLM for product data management, configuration control, engineering change and release would be beneficial.
