This exciting role focuses on the coordination of prototype manufacture and assembly alongside the creation of detailed test procedures, conducting and/or monitoring product testing in indoor and outdoor environments and the delivery of comprehensive test reports.

Suitable candidates will be qualified in a mechanical engineering discipline, preferably to degree level and be skilled in data acquisition and analysis.
