Dyson Recruitment – Materials Process Engineer

Job Description:

Initially this role is focused on identifying and de-risking cost effective manufacturing routes for production of materials currently produced on the laboratory scale. Organisation and planning of laboratory and scale-up testing programs will be required to prove out and optimise these novel manufacturing routes, utilising in house capabilities as well as collaborations with third parties.

Job Responsibilities:

• Identify potential methods of manufacture whereby significant cost or quality improvements could be realised
• To lead development projects with partners and collaborators for the prototyping and engineering of equipment.
• Responsibilities shall include;
• Planning and organisation of trial programmes, to target efficient and robust proof of concept of manufacturing methods both in house and external
• The review of unit operations and processes identified at a research level, and the development of these to reliable and reproducible process steps, via the use of larger scale equipment
• Applicants for this particular role must have significant demonstrable experience in the aforementioned areas, specifically the development of critical processes ready for pilot scale manufacture.
• Review of potential alternative and parallel technology methods to achieve the same aim
• Working with partners and internal engineers to rapidly prototype solutions for trial & verification

Job Requirements:

• Understanding and managing specification and construction of facilities
• Experienced CAD user
• Design & construction of development and Pilot-Line equipment
• Hazardous and/or complex environments, (e.g. dry / explosive / particulate / vapour)
• Batch & continuous processes
• Statistical process control – Lean Six Sigma type approaches.
• Proficient in MS Office including Excel
• Data acquisition & Processing – Scientific in understanding but engineering in mind-set.
• Multi-stage unit operations; timings & work-flow
