No high voltage experience needed — full training provided. Real engineering from day one.
At Essex X-Ray, you won’t be sitting on the sidelines. You’ll be designing, building and testing real products while developing specialist high voltage engineering skills alongside experienced engineers.
You’ll take ownership of real engineering work, see your designs progress from concept through manufacture and testing, and develop towards becoming a Design Engineer.
Build specialist skills. Take on real responsibility. Accelerate your engineering career.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll work across the full engineering lifecycle, including:
Designing components and assemblies using 3D CAD
Supporting prototype manufacture and hands-on assembly
Carrying out high voltage testing and validation
Producing engineering drawings, documentation and technical reports
Investigating engineering problems and developing design improvements
Taking designs from initial concept through to manufacture and test
What’s in it for you
Real design responsibility — contribute to live engineering projects from the start
Hands-on engineering — design it, build it, test it and improve it
Rapid development — work directly alongside experienced engineers
Specialist expertise — develop valuable skills in the niche field of high voltage engineering
Visible impact — see your work progress from concept to finished product
Clear progression — a supported development path towards a Design Engineer role
Graduate engineering team — develop alongside other early-career engineers
What we’re looking for
A 2:1 degree in Mechanical, Mechatronic, Electronic, or a related Engineering discipline
6 months’ industrial engineering experience, gained through employment, an internship or industrial placement
A practical, curious mindset and willingness to learn
Good communication and teamwork skills
