We are looking for an experienced Mechanical Product Development Engineer with strong expertise in hydraulics and pressure systems to join an innovative engineering team.


This role focuses on the design, development and testing of hydraulic and pressure‑based mechanical systems, supporting the full product lifecycle from concept through to production.


Key Responsibilities

  • Design and develop hydraulic and pressure‑bearing components, including pumps, valves, manifolds, fittings and fluid systems.
  • Create 3D CAD models, engineering drawings, pressure calculations and technical documentation.
  • Develop reliable sealing systems such as O‑rings, gaskets, and pressure‑retaining joints.
  • Integrate hydraulic systems into liquid cooling loops, heat exchangers and electromechanical assemblies.
  • Collaborate with electrical, thermal, manufacturing and quality teams throughout development.
  • Support prototype builds, testing and validation including leak testing, pressure testing and performance analysis.
  • Contribute to design for manufacturability (DFM) and support product industrialisation.
  • Ensure designs meet relevant pressure equipment standards and safety requirements.

Skills & Experience

  • Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Hydraulics, Fluid Power Engineering or similar.
  • Experience designing hydraulic systems, pressure components, pumps, valves or manifolds.
  • Knowledge of fluid dynamics, pressure systems and sealing design.
  • Experience with 3D CAD tools such as SolidWorks, Inventor, Solid Edge or ANSYS.
  • Strong problem‑solving skills and ability to work within cross‑functional engineering teams

New Edge Computing Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Shaping Edge Innovation

Edge computing is transforming how data is processed by bringing compute power closer to the source of generation. With the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT), real‑time analytics, autonomous systems, and latency‑sensitive applications, edge computing has moved from a niche discipline to a core component of digital infrastructure. In 2026, organisations that specialise in or heavily invest in edge computing are expanding their teams to build distributed systems, real‑time analytics platforms, and edge‑optimised AI. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.EdgeComputingJobs.co.uk , understanding which employers are growing, winning contracts, or securing investment is essential. This article highlights the new and high‑growth edge computing employers to watch in 2026, including UK startups, international innovators with a UK presence, and established companies shifting strategy toward edge.

How Many Edge Computing Tools Do You Need to Know to Get an Edge Computing Job?

If you’re trying to start or grow a career in edge computing, it can feel like you’re navigating a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms — Kubernetes, Docker, IoT frameworks, AWS Greengrass, Azure IoT Edge, OpenShift, TinyML toolkits, networking orchestration, real-time streaming frameworks, and on it goes. Scroll job boards and community forums and it’s easy to conclude that unless you master every buzzword imaginable, you’ll never get a job. Here’s the honest truth most edge computing hiring managers won’t necessarily say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every edge computing tool — they hire you because you can solve real system problems using the tools you know. Tools matter, yes — but only when they support clear outcomes: reliable systems, performance at scale, secure edge deployments and real business value. So how many edge computing tools do you actually need to know to secure a job? For most edge computing roles, the answer is fewer than you think — and a lot clearer when sorted by fundamentals and roles. This guide shows you what matters, what doesn’t, and how to focus your time wisely so you come across as capable, confident and employable.
