Job description

About us

Dyson is a global technology enterprise. We solve the problems others choose to ignore, with surprising new inventions that defy convention and simply work better. We push the boundaries of what others have defined as possible. We start with an engineering mindset and different thinking, then continuously refine our ideas, unwilling to compromise until we’ve found a better way.

This position sits within the Product Performance team, part of Dyson’s world class Research, Design and Development (RDD) department. We are a multi-disciplinary team responsible for developing the cutting-edge technologies that enable our products to have market leading performance and win the hearts of our users.

We own and deliver the user-facing, primary function systems of our products. This encompasses our floor cleaning systems, separation & filtration systems, and electro-mechanical intelligent systems in our Home product category.

About the role

As a member of the Product Performance team, your main responsibility will be to develop product performance systems from early concepts to mass production. You will own the system, and work with internal and external partners from various functions to design, integrate, verify, validate and deliver the system on spec, time, quality and cost.

Your core day-to-day responsibilities will be to:

• Perform fundamental studies to build subject matter expertise in product performance technologies and systems
• Scope and translate product business targets into product performance system requirements
• Break down, plan and execute the work packages to develop product performance systems throughout the product development lifecycle
• Design solutions to optimise product performance using a mixture of simulation, prototyping and experimentation
• Define design specifications and production control specifications to implement the product performance design solutions and ensure achievement of product performance requirements
• Proactively identify and manage risks throughout the development of product performance systems, troubleshooting and resolving issues that occur
• Develop test methods and support verification, validation and manufacturing test plans for product performance systems
• Manage communications and relationships with stakeholders and partners

About you

To be successful in this role, you should have:

• A Bachelor’s Degree or higher qualification in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering or Physics (other engineering, science and technology disciplines can be considered)
• Experience in developing mechanical or electro-mechanical systems in consumer products
• Proven competencies in any of the following: physics, mechanical design, fluid dynamics, filtration, programming, data acquisition, signal processing, data analysis, statistics, image processing, machine learning, simulation, systems thinking, failure analysis
• Application of any of the following tools and methodologies: CAD, MATLAB, LabVIEW, Python, C/C++, NI DAQs, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, Arduino, Minitab, 8D problem solving, Lean Six Sigma, FMEA
• Clear logical and critical thinking, with an attention to detail and deep passion for good design
• High drive, sense of ownership, and ability to thrive in a fast-paced, changing environment with a growth mindset
• Strong interpersonal skills to lead, collaborate, and manage stakeholders, using written and verbal English. Mandarin would be an added advantage.

Dyson Malaysia monitors the market to ensure competitive salaries and bonuses. Beyond that, you’ll enjoy a transport allowance and comprehensive medical care and insurance. But financial benefits are just the start of a Dyson career. Professional growth, leadership development and new opportunities abound, driven by regular reviews and dynamic workshops. And with a vibrant culture, the latest devices and a relaxed dress code reflecting our engineering spirit, it’s an exciting team environment geared to fuelling and realising ambition.

Dyson is an equal opportunity employer. We know that great minds don’t think alike, and it takes all kinds of minds to make our technology so unique. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and employment decisions are made without regard to race, colour, religion, national or ethnic origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, protected veteran status or other any other dimension of diversity.

When James Dyson invented the Ballbarrow he assigned the patent to the company, Kirk-Dyson, and not in his own name. Big mistake. After leaving the company, he had no rights to the invention he had laboured over and they sold his invention to another company. But all was not lost. He learnt some valuable lessons for the future – creativity is a rare commodity and the importance of protecting an idea.
