This position is being advertised to build a pipeline of candidates for future roles within Rolls-Royce Submarines at our new Glasgow office. Immediate feedback should not be expected, but CVs will be reviewed promptly.
We are seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer to join Rolls-Royce Submarines. If you are passionate about engineering, have experience in mechanical design from concept to delivery, and want to contribute to our submarine business, we encourage you to apply online.
Why Rolls-Royce? We lead in propulsion system design for the Royal Navy's nuclear submarine fleet and are the sole provider and technical authority. We offer a supportive, inclusive, digital-first culture with opportunities for continuous learning and career growth.
Our growth includes supporting the UK Ministry of Defence as the technical authority for naval reactor plants, expanding capabilities in submarine and nuclear sectors.
We are looking for individuals with a strong background in Mechanical Design Engineering to support areas such as:
- Nuclear primary components, including the reactor core
- Secondary propulsion components
- In-service support and maintenance
- Special purpose tools and equipment
- Future product development
What we offer: Competitive salary, excellent development opportunities, bonus, employee support, and discounts. We support hybrid working, allowing a balance between office, home, or remote work, with an expectation to attend the workplace approximately three days per week.
Responsibilities: You will create component, assembly, and system designs with justifications considering life, cost, availability, and safety margins. Your tasks include:
- Developing robust solutions considering the full life cycle
- Integrating cross-disciplinary engineering concepts
- Documenting and verifying designs according to engineering standards
- Presenting technical evidence at reviews
- Publishing safety and technical reports for customer and regulatory review
Candidate requirements: - Experience in relevant disciplines, not limited to Submarines
- Degree or apprenticeship training in engineering preferred but not essential with relevant experience
- Experience from industries such as Civil Nuclear, Marine, Petro-Chemical, Oil & Gas is beneficial
We value safety, integrity, simplicity, and making a difference. We are committed to diversity and inclusion, fostering a respectful environment where everyone can reach their potential.
Note: A UK Security Check (SC) clearance without caveats is required. Rolls-Royce will support clearance applications. Due to security reasons, candidates must be UK nationals; dual nationals will undergo additional checks.
