This is an opportunity to work as part of cross-functional team to deliver product designs that meet customer and project requirements in close conjunction with Electrical and Mechanical Engineers and collaborate with Customers and Project Management, Sourcing and Procurement, Manufacturing and Quality teams.
At GE Vernova's Rugby site, the products we build power critical infrastructure across the world — and getting the design right matters. As a CAD Engineer specialising in rotating electrical machines, you'll play a hands-on role in translating customer and project requirements into detailed 3D models, part drawings, and assembly specifications that guide manufacturing from concept through to certification.
You'll work closely with electrical and mechanical engineers, project managers, and manufacturing and quality teams to ensure every design is technically sound, commercially viable, and ready to build. If you take pride in precise, well-structured design work and want to develop your expertise on high-stakes engineering products, this is a role where your contribution will be tangible and visible.
You'll own the full design development workflow — from initial concept modelling through to detailed drawings, change management, and certification documentation.
You're a detail-oriented CAD engineer with hands-on experience in 3D modelling for electromechanical or rotating machine products — someone who takes ownership of their design work and understands what it takes to translate a model into something that can actually be manufactured.
