About the role

  • Support requirements capture and verification planning for assigned components.
  • Produce and maintain CAD/installation artefacts, design justification and interface documentation.
  • Handle mechanical subsystem design tasks (mechanical / CAD part of power electronics and electrical products, Busbar Definitions, routing, mounts, enclosures, sensor integration).
  • Will handle high-voltage and high current constraints.
  • Help prepare prototypes: assembly support, instrumentation, and basic commissioning tasks.
  • Support test execution and data processing; document results and lessons learned.
  • Track issues and actions from design reviews and test campaigns; keep evidence organized.
  • Work with electrical, Battery and structures engineers to resolve design issues, interface clashes and integration constraints, optimize the designs.
  • Support supplier interactions (data requests, documentation checks, follow-ups).

Requirements

  • MSc in Mechatronics / Mechanical or similar.
  • Experience in CAD design environment (CATIA)
  • 0–3 years’ experience (or internships) in product development or hardware integration.
  • Basic understanding of mechanical design and electrical integration constraints (clearances, routing, serviceability).
  • Ability to produce clear interface documentation and keep changes controlled.
  • Comfortable with hands-on prototype work and safe workshop/lab practices.
  • Basic analysis skills (tolerances, simple loads, thermal awareness) and willingness to learn deeper methods.
  • Ability to turn ambiguous inputs into a clear next step and ask for review early.
  • Clear technical communication in short notes and drawings.
  • Nice-to-have Experience with high-voltage systems integration (awareness level).
  • Experience with harness routing constraints and installation design.
  • Familiarity with simple FMEA thinking.
  • Rapid prototyping mindset
