Design Engineers are responsible for developing, improving, and refining products, systems, or components across a range of industries. They interpret technical specifications, create detailed designs using CAD software, and collaborate with project teams to ensure concepts are translated into practical, manufacturable solutions. Design Engineers must have strong technical knowledge gained through engineering degrees or equivalent qualifications, and often require proficiency in software such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or Inventor. They typically work within sectors such as manufacturing, construction, energy, or engineering consultancy, with roles that may involve both office-based design work and on-site project visits.
