Socode are partnering with a Cambridgeshire-based technology company whose precision industrial systems are used by manufacturers around the world. They’re now putting significant investment into their own production facilities, with a multi-year plan to overhaul and replace ageing equipment. To deliver it, they’re bringing in a Senior Project Engineer.
This role suits a hands-on engineer who likes to see equipment through from start to finish. You’ll take each project from the initial idea and specification, through supplier selection and acceptance testing, to installation on the factory floor, and then keep it running reliably afterwards. Most of the work is UK-based, with occasional short trips to suppliers in Europe for FAT.

* Writing requirements, getting quotes and choosing the right suppliers for each project
* Managing suppliers through build, FAT and SAT, through to final sign-off on site
* Keeping your projects on time and on budget, with regular updates for stakeholders
* Getting involved when equipment problems come up, from fault-finding and root cause analysis to improving preventive maintenance
* Producing clear project documentation, including plans, drawings and risk assessments
* Working closely with process, equipment, production, maintenance and quality teams
What are they looking for?
* An HNC, HND or degree in mechanical, electrical or manufacturing engineering
* Experience as an engineer in a manufacturing or production environment
* Strong practical fault-finding skills and a hands-on approach
* A track record of delivering equipment projects against timelines and budgets
* Experience with PLCs or automated systems
