The University of Strathclyde is a leading international technological institution and has a long history of working with industry to deliver strong business growth from access to research and innovation expertise. The latest major initiative continuing to deliver on this track record is through the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland (NMIS).
The NMIS Digital Factory’s Design Engineering Team is seeking to appoint an experienced and enthusiastic Product & System Development Theme Lead/KE Fellow, to lead and manage delivery of high value research and knowledge exchange programmes, the improvement of applied product and systems engineering with respect to the development of manufactured goods, through applied experimental research activity, and introduce the outcomes into manufacturing environments. This will involve the candidate anticipating the direction of design and manufacturing capability to develop a credible technical roadmap and research strategy and deliver industrial research projects.
The Product & System Development Theme Lead will also lead, manage and develop the Product & System Development Theme’s team with the aim of building a world-leading community of product and systems development experts in Strathclyde. The post holder will be expected to work between NMIS and its industrial partners and there will be a strong emphasis on knowledge exchange and process improvement.
To achieve the above the Product & System Development Theme Lead will require significant research and/or industrial experience in at least two of the following technical areas:
Knowledge and experience of an industrial design and manufacturing environment including the various kinds of manufacturing equipment and technologies common across industry
Good understanding of the engineering design process including gated design reviews to diligently de-risk component, product and system designs.
A broad knowledge of verification and validation activities to mature the technology readiness of product and system designs.
Knowledge of digital tools available to support component, product and system designs including CAD, PDM, PLM, FEA etc.
Good understanding of how design data is used in R&D, product development and through the life of a product or system.
Good understanding of mechanical design and optimisation of components to withstand identified loads and stresses.
An awareness of more than one area of NMIS design engineering capability is desirable for the role.
The post holder will require the knowledge, skills and experience normally associated with a first degree and PhD for example in mechanical/materials engineering or design engineering. We are also interested in candidates with equivalent industrial experience. The post holder will have an established track record in leading the delivery of engineering solutions in an industrial context, as well as experience of taking a leading role in research and development of manufacturing processes. The post holder will have the ability to work autonomously, to plan and prioritise their own workload with minimal inputs from higher management, and deal with complex problems presented to them by colleagues.
The post holder will also need experience of project planning and delivery, as well as excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with a proven ability to interact with a range of stakeholders from industry and academia. The post holder will be required to make a significant contribution to the administrative activities of NMIS including membership/chair of relevant committees. As part of the role involves managing staff members within the theme, the post holder will have the ability to line manage and lead a team, including undertaking capability development, recruitment activities, allocating work, managing outputs and performance management.
