Senior CAD Design Engineer

Cambridge – Equity options

Working for a hugely ambitious start-up in Cambridge, this role gives you the chance to help turn engineering ideas into reality. You’ll be delivering CAD models and assemblies for complex systems playing a key role in guiding the company towards manufacturable solutions.

You’ll be joining a business developing critical defence technology with a mission to save lives. Backed by strong funding and a leadership team with a clear vision, they’re building systems that push the boundaries of what’s possible. This isn’t a place where you’ll just follow instructions - you’ll be trusted to innovate, contribute ideas, and take real responsibility from day one.

Key responsibilities:

Use SolidWorks to design CAD models. Create drawings with appropriate GD&T, covering everything from prototypes to mass-manufactured components.

We’re looking for:

Excellent CAD design skills using SolidWorks. Experience in complex mechanical design systems. At least 3 years of industry experience. Familiarity with PDM/PLM systems.

In return, you’ll join a well-funded start-up offering a competitive package, equity options, and genuine opportunities for progression as the company scales. Most importantly, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing your work makes a real-world impact.
