Junior Mechanical Engineer

6-Month FTC | 5 days a week in office

Start: May 2026


A high-growth construction technology business is hiring two junior engineers to support the development and deployment of robotic, automated manufacturing systems – transforming how homes are built through hardware and software. Built for Real-World Production


Construction is one of the least digitised industries globally, facing major challenges across cost, labour, and delivery. This team is solving that by combining robotics, mechanical engineering, and automation to enable faster, more efficient, and scalable production environments.

This is a hands-on opportunity to work directly with physical systems, contributing to the build and iteration of real-world hardware.

Responsibilities

  • Support the build, assembly, and deployment of mechanical systems
  • Work across robotic and automated production environments
  • Assist with prototyping, testing, and iteration of hardware components
  • Troubleshoot and resolve issues across mechanical and electromechanical systems
  • Collaborate with engineering teams across mechanical, electrical, and software
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of systems already in operation

Requirements

  • Background in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or similar — OR relevant Mechanical Fitter experience
  • Exposure to robotics, automation, or electromechanical systems
  • Strong interest in mechanical engineering and real-world hardware
  • Ability to get up to speed quickly and adapt in a fast-moving environment
  • Comfortable working hands-on with tools, systems, and physical components

What Stands Out

  • Internships or placements completed during university
  • Experience working with mechanical, electrical, or pneumatic systems
  • Hands-on exposure to robotics systems
  • CAD experience and ability to work from or produce technical designs
  • Personal projects, builds, or engineering work outside of formal environments
  • Startup experience or evidence of working in fast-paced, ambiguous settings
  • Side projects or business ventures demonstrating initiative and ownership

Interview Process

  • Intro / Screening call
  • Practical task (CAD and/or physical hardware-based assessment)
  • Final cultural / team meeting

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.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Edge Computing Job Applications (UK Guide)

In today’s fast-evolving tech landscape, edge computing is one of the most sought-after fields — blending distributed systems, embedded systems, networking, cloud, IoT, data and real-time processing. But that also means hiring managers are highly selective. They scan applications fast and look for signals of relevance, impact, technical depth and real-world delivery long before they read every line. This guide demystifies what hiring managers in edge computing look for first in your application — so you can tailor your CV, portfolio and cover letter to jump out of the stack. Whether you’re targeting edge systems roles, embedded IoT edge jobs, edge-native data roles, edge platform engineering or edge-AI positions, this checklist will help you position your experience in a way hiring managers can trust immediately.
