Assignment Description

We are looking for an experienced Mechanical Design Engineer to support a 12-month engineering assignment at ESS in Lund, Sweden.

The role focuses on mechanical design, CAD modelling, technical drawings, and integration of components into the ESS Master CAD model. You will use CATIA V6 to develop and maintain 2D drawings and 3D models, support installation and assembly activities, coordinate with manufacturing teams, and ensure engineering documentation meets relevant standards and quality requirements.

What You Will Work On

• Integrate components from partner facilities into the ESS Master CAD model.
• Create, maintain, and update 2D drawings and 3D models using CATIA V6.
• Develop drawings and models from existing designs, requirements, and 3D or 2D inputs.
• Manage CAD documentation and archives using the CHESS system.
• Produce conceptual, draft, detailed, manufacturing, and installation drawings.
• Support system assembly, machine installation, and on-site engineering activities.
• Coordinate installation activities and prepare supporting documentation.
• Follow up on component manufacturing and review production quality.
• Conduct engineering quality checks and acceptance inspections.
• Review engineering drawings and packages against mechanical standards, ISO requirements, and GPS tolerancing.
• Maintain technical documentation and communicate design progress and issues.

What You Bring

• A higher technical qualification or university degree in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related discipline.
• Basic mechanical engineering knowledge.
• At least 5 years of mechanical CAD design experience.
• At least 3 years of CATIA design experience.
• Experience with design maturity, versioning, and release processes.
• Experience with Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) and production drawings.
• Ability to interpret and produce 2D drawings and 3D models.
• Strong technical documentation and drawing review skills.
• Excellent written and spoken English.
• Ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and deliver high-quality results.

Meritorious

• Experience working in scientific facilities.
• Knowledge of precision manufacturing and micrometric tolerances.
• Experience with maintenance drawings and industrial installation drawings.
• Experience with configuration management and technical documentation.
• Experience designing equipment for accelerator or detector environments.
• Exposure to vacuum, pressure, gas flow, magnetic fields, RF, radiation, high temperatures, or cryogenic systems.
• Experience supervising mechanical design.
• Experience with acceptance testing.
• Familiarity with CATIA V6 and CAD management tools such as CHESS.
