About Cogs' Client:

Cogs’ client is a rapidly growing engineering organization recognized for delivering innovative, fit-for-purpose solutions in some of the most demanding environments, including offshore and subsea sectors. Their ethos is grounded in solving complex technical problems through ingenuity, collaboration, and hands-on execution. If an existing product or system doesn’t meet the project’s needs, they have the capability and mindset to design and build it from scratch.

Role Overview

This role is ideal for a mechanically minded engineer who thrives on designing custom systems in fast-paced, high-impact environments. The successful candidate will work closely with multidisciplinary teams to create and refine mechanical systems used in offshore and remote applications. The position involves frequent interaction with the shop floor, assembly teams, and field operations to ensure designs are practical, manufacturable, and robust in the field.

Key Responsibilities Include:

• Design innovative mechanical solutions for complex technical problems
• Collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, and operations teams across all stages of product development
• Provide support during product build, testing, and deployment phases
• Engage in iterative prototyping and continuous improvement processes
• Occasionally work outside normal hours to support urgent project needs
• Travel as required for site visits, field support, or conferences

Qualifications

Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related technical field, or equivalent industry experience
• 3+ years of hands-on experience with mechanical systems and design projects
• Practical experience in assembling, disassembling, and troubleshooting mechanical systems
• Familiarity with engineering standards and manufacturing methods
• Ability to operate safely and effectively in a shop environment
• Physical ability to lift 35–50 lbs when required

Preferred:

• 2+ years of experience taking mechanical designs from concept to production
• Experience with electrical systems, machine design, or hydromechanical systems
• Proficiency in 3D CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Inventor, or similar)
• Familiarity with Microsoft Office suite, PLM tools, and ERP systems
• Background in subsea engineering is a strong plus
• Prior hands-on experience as a technician is highly desirable
