Desirable:

• Certified SolidWorks Professional.
• Experience with SolidWorks Visualize and basic video editing tools.
• Strong proficiency in SolidWorks PDM and product data management processes.
• Experience in high-integrity engineering environments such as automotive, aerospace, marine, or defence.

Salary: up to £45000

Salary: The salary varies for this position as we are recruiting in multiple regional locations and job grades. The salary process is based on skills, abilities, and experience required.
