Description

Research, Design and Development (RDD) is Dyson's engine room. It’s where our engineers challenge convention, build, test, fail, refine, and then fail again - all to invent technology that solves problems that others ignore.

Join us as graduate and from day one you’ll be assigned to a live project, influencing the evolution of Dyson technology.

Accountabilities

As a Graduate Design Engineer, you’ll be sketching, prototyping, testing, failing and refining to deliver the high standards of product development Dyson is known for, working on ideas that will transform markets.

You’ll need to be thoroughly hands on, practically applying your technical knowledge with a creative flair to ensure that all engineering problems are resolved thoroughly.

When you join, you’ll be expected to hit the ground running on one of Dyson’s many live projects. Working as part of a larger project team, you’ll have your own set of project deliverables and the chance to take ownership of how these are achieved.

Some of your tasks could include:

  • Using creative problem solving to produce effective design solutions
  • Designing and building proof-of-principle rigs
  • Hand-producing prototypes
  • Testing prototypes to validate design decisions
  • Defining product specifications and design of production parts

Working with engineers, scientists and technical experts across a broad range of disciplines, you’ll be comfortable learning from others, but also sharing your own knowledge, ideas and opinions.

As well as your line manager to help you along the way, you’ll be supported with a development framework designed to provide the technical and commercial know-how to help you drive your Dyson career.

Skills

Our graduate roles are competitive and delivering the next generation of Dyson technology is tough, so you’ll need to be:

  • On track for a 2:1 or above in an Engineering discipline, but with a demonstrable passion for design.
  • Able to evidence how you have applied your technical knowledge to solve problems, either through your university projects or as part of your extra-curricular activities.
  • Happy to build your own networks to learn from the technical expertise around you.
  • Passionate about Dyson and our technology to help us meet our ambitious future plans.
  • Above all, you’ll want to play a key part in bringing the next generation of Dyson technology to the world.

All applications will be reviewed however, we advise on applying as soon as possible in order to participate in our first round of assessment centres.

Benefits

  • 27 days holiday plus bank holidays
  • Performance related bonus and joining bonus
  • Free on-site gym and sports centre
  • Subsidised café and restaurants
  • Discounts on Dyson machines
  • Free on-site parking
  • Pension scheme
  • Life assurance

23 years ago, Dyson began with a single concept – a vacuum that wouldn’t lose suction. Years later and Dyson are still breaking convention, pushing into new areas of technology. And it’s this fresh thinking that we still crave today. Beyond the bagless vacuum cleaner, Dyson engineers have developed bladeless fans, high speed hand dryers, robot vacuums and have recently re-thought the hair dryer. Today Dyson invests £5m a week developing new technology and ideas.
