Job Title:
Senior Product Engineer– Hydraulic Systems & Production SupportReporting To:
Product & Supply Chain Engineering Manager (Ops Support)Work Schedule:
Hybrid – Tewkesbury, GBRWe’re looking for a Senior Product Engineer to join our Aircraft Control Components team in Tewkesbury — a technically demanding environment where you’ll work across the full lifecycle of complex aerospace hydraulic and mechanical assemblies, from production floor issues through to design and process improvement.
This isn’t a desk role. You’ll be the person the production and test teams come to when something needs resolving, and you’ll have the authority and the cross-functional access to actually fix it — not just escalate it. You’ll also shape the standards, procedures, and technical documentation that underpin how we build and test our products and provide direction to engineers earlier in their careers.
The work spans assembly and test process development, non-conformance investigation, PRB and MRB activity, supplier and customer liaison, and leading product and process changes — across our UK sites and occasionally internationally.
What you’ll actually be doing
- Acting as a technical focal point for complex production, assembly, and test issues
- Analysing production data to identify efficiency, cost, yield, and quality improvements
- Leading investigations into production issues, ensuring rapid containment and prevention of recurrence
- Creating, developing, and approving assembly and test standards, procedures, and documentation
- Leading product and process changes to improve system performance and customer outcomes
- Supporting non-conformance, PRB and MRB activities across UK and international sites
- Specifying and supporting new test equipment and working closely with sustainment and test teams
- Providing technical justification for product integrity investigations and liaising with suppliers and customers
- Technical approval for product support documentation.
- Demonstrate competency for providing advice and technical direction for peers and junior staff.
What we’re looking for
- Degree-qualified in a relevant engineering discipline (or equivalent experience)
- Significant relevant engineering experience, with strong mechanical and hydraulic knowledge
- Proven experience in assembly and test process development and production support
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills using recognised engineering tools and techniques
- Experience with PFMEA, control plans, process flow diagrams, and MSA
- Broad understanding of mechanical, electronic, and hydraulic testing principles
- Confident communicator able to provide technical direction and influence across teams
- Proficient in tools such as Minitab, Microsoft Project, and Excel
- Organised, proactive, and able to manage multiple priorities effectively
What We Offer
- Moog Named to Glassdoor’s 2026 Best Places to Work
- Flexible benefits package and development opportunities to support career progression
- 33 days annual leave (including bank holidays)
- Private medical insurance, mental health support and financial advice
- Generous life assurance and company pension contribution (from 6%)
- Employee share options, EV charging
