The opportunity
Copello are supporting a leading Defence client in their search for an Environmental Project Engineer. You will expected to work closely and build relationships with a range of functions, sectors and Chief Engineers including Systems Engineering, Architecture, Design and Proving teams.
You will provide technical expertise in generating environmental requirements, supporting the development of robust product designs and defining and managing cost effective proving strategies throughout the product development cycle. You will also work closely with our existing team of highly experienced project and test engineers to define and deliver environmental test programmes.
You will provide a technical focal point for all stages of the product lifecycle, through concept definition, design aid, formal qualification and certification and onto in-service support. Our expertise covers the areas of: environmental requirement specification and management; definition of proving methodologies; certification; project management; data analysis; simulation and modelling and testing in climatic, mechanical (vibration and shock) and fatigue.
