Oxfordshire | £60,000 - £70,000 + Benefits
Are you an Engineer who enjoys solving undefined problems, testing ideas quickly, and working collaboratively within a small, highly capable team? Are you comfortable operating without fully established processes and motivated by the opportunity to directly influence both product development and the future manufacturing strategy and processes of the company? If this sounds like you then please keep reading..
Redline Group is exclusively partnered with an innovative deep-tech start-up developing next-generation power technology. They are looking to appoint a Lead Manufacturing Engineer as the organisation is transitioning from advanced R&D into early-stage commercialisation.
Backed by high-profile UK investors and founded by a highly accomplished technical team, the business is developing breakthrough systems with applications across sectors such as AI infrastructure, grid technology, renewable energy and advanced industrial systems.
This is a rare opportunity to join at a genuinely formative stage, where you will play a key role in shaping how novel products are designed, assembled and scaled into manufacture.
The Role
As Lead Manufacturing Engineer, you will take ownership of manufacturing development activities from early concept through to prototype and low-volume production. Working within a highly collaborative engineering environment, you will help define manufacturing strategy, assembly processes, tooling and automation solutions for first-generation products. This role would suit someone who thrives in hands-on engineering environments, and is motivated by building processes and systems from the ground up rather than optimising mature production lines.
Key responsibilities will include:
Developing manufacturing and assembly processes for advanced electronic products
Supporting the transition from R&D prototype builds into commercial-ready production
Designing and implementing low-volume automation and robotic assembly solutions
Working closely with design engineers on Design for Manufacture (DfM) and Design for Assembly (DfA)
Evaluating manufacturing methods including adhesives, sealing technologies, tooling and precision assembly techniques
Supporting product validation, testing and certification activities
Working with external suppliers and manufacturing partners including PCB/PCBA suppliers and precision engineering companies
Establishing manufacturing documentation, quality processes and scalable production methodologies
Supporting longer-term manufacturing scale-up strategy as the company grows
Key Skills & Experience Required
The successful candidate will likely demonstrate:
Degree qualified in Engineering or a related discipline
Experience within advanced manufacturing, precision engineering, power electronics, aerospace, defence, medical devices or similar high-reliability sectors
Proven experience taking products from concept/prototype into production
Strong hands-on engineering capability with the ability to problem solve in fast-moving environments
Experience developing manufacturing processes, tooling or automation systems
Knowledge of robotic systems or small-scale automation equipment
Strong understanding of DfM and DfA principles
Experience working with suppliers and subcontract manufacturers
Comfortable operating within a fast-paced start-up or low-volume manufacturing environment
Why Apply?
Opportunity to join a well-funded deep-tech start-up at a pivotal stage
Significant technical ownership and influence from day one
Equity/share options available
Strong progression opportunities as the company scales
Opportunity to work on genuinely cutting-edge technology
Collaborative, highly technical engineering environment
Long-term opportunity to shape manufacturing strategy and operations
