Design Engineer

Pipework & Fabrication

Stowmarket, Suffolk £40,000£50,000 Are you a

hands-on Design Engineer

who likes seeing your designs become something real? This could be a great opportunity to join an established engineering and fabrication business where youll work closely with the workshop, site and project teams

taking projects from initial concept through to manufacture and installation. The role

Youll be involved in a varied mix of: Designing

pipework, steelwork and fabricated components

Producing 2D and 3D CAD drawings and models

Developing pipework layouts, routing and fabrication designs

Carrying out site surveys and taking measurements

Working with clients to understand their requirements

Working closely with the workshop to make sure designs are practical to manufacture

Supporting projects through fabrication and installation, making design changes where needed

Liaising with suppliers and subcontractors when required

Its primarily office-based, but youll regularly be out in the workshop and occasionally visit client sites and suppliers.

What we're looking for

Were looking for someone with a background in

mechanical design, pipework or steel fabrication , who understands that a good design needs to work in the real world

not just look good on a screen. Youll ideally have: Experience in mechanical, pipework or fabrication design

Good 2D and 3D CAD experience

Experience with

SolidWorks, AutoCAD Plant 3D or similar

A good understanding of fabrication, welding and/or industrial pipework

Experience with site surveys would be advantageous

The ability to turn requirements into practical, manufacturable designs

A hands-on, problem-solving approach

You don't necessarily need to tick every box.

If you have strong mechanical/fabrication design experience and the right practical mindset, we'd still like to hear from you.

Why this role?

This isn't a role where you'll spend your time designing something that disappears into a folder. You'll see your work go

from drawing board, to workshop, to finished installation . You'll work alongside experienced engineers and fabricators, have genuine input into how projects are delivered, and work on a variety of projects rather than doing the same thing every day. If you enjoy practical engineering, solving problems and seeing the finished result of your work,

we'd like to hear from you.
