About Us

Aurosity is a leading provider in the field of laboratory automation, specialising in the design, development, and construction of bespoke automation systems. We serve a diverse and global client base, primarily operating within highly regulated industries such as pharmaceuticals and biotech.

Our core mission is to empower these organisations by delivering custom-engineered platforms and advanced robotic products that significantly enhance research throughput, improve data integrity, and ensure compliance with stringent industry regulations.

Due to the accelerating demand for our innovative, custom-built solutions we are expanding our engineering team.

Who We're Looking For

Are you a natural problem solver? Can you translate your ideas into detailed CAD designs using tools like SolidWorks? Are you fascinated by the inner workings of things and finding ways to enhance them? Can you effectively communicate your concepts to others? Are you a hands-on kind of person who is happy to occasionally roll their sleeves up and assemble prototypes for testing? If you're an ambitious recent graduate or early-career mechanical or product engineer, then you're exactly who we're looking for.

As a young and dynamic company, we've experienced tremendous growth since our inception in 2022. With an abundance of opportunities and innovative ideas in the pipeline, we need someone with a hands-on mindset to join the team.

A Typical Day

There's no such thing as a typical day at Aurosity, but you'll be involved in:

Collaborating with our team, clients, and suppliers to define and refine product specifications;
Exploring both emerging and existing technologies to improve concepts;
Transforming ideas into comprehensive concepts and intricate 3D CAD models;
Engaging in internal project discussions and presenting externally to clients and stakeholders;
Coordinating with our suppliers and manufacturing partners;
Building and rigorously testing prototypes to bring your concepts to life.

Benefits

Being a part of our close-knit team means you'll explore many activities and develop a diverse skill set. You won't just be another employee number; you'll be an integral part of our success. As we expand, we hope you'll grow with us, and we'll work with you to realise both your technical and personal aspirations.

We offer an attractive salary and benefits package, with a commitment to investing in your personal and professional development.

Work-Life Balance

We promote a healthy work-life balance through hybrid working, allowing you to split your time between remote work (typically from home) and collaborating with the team at our workspace. Occasional travel to client sites will be required. Our office is situated in a charming Grade 2 listed mill in Bollington, near Macclesfield, alongside a picturesque canal.
