From the smallest precision component to a propeller for a supertanker, every cast metal product needs to be designed to match a client's need.

As a Design Engineer you will undertake extensive research and consultation to ascertain the client's requirements for their new product or process. You will also develop specifications for new products focusing on cost, method of production, new technology and business objectives.

Another challenging and interesting area is that of the Tooling Designer who designs the tooling to create the final product. The Tooling Designer designs precision tools that not only create the desired shapes to high tolerances, but also ensure the proper flow of molten metal throughout the mould.

If you have good technical skills, enjoy the challenges of design and development and like working with Computer Aided Design software, this could be a great career for you.
