At Dyson we’re obsessed with continuously making things better, pushing the boundaries of what others have defined as impossible. We do this by making products that solve real world problems using both novel technologies and established technologies, in new and innovative ways.
Dyson’s Virtual Engineering team brings together specialists in FEA, thermal, moldflow, optics, vibration, and electromagnetics simulation. By using advanced digital modelling, we solve engineering challenges and optimise products before building physical prototypes. Our collaborative, multi-disciplinary team works globally and partners externally to deliver data-driven insights for world-class products.
Embark on a transformative journey with our two-year Graduate programme designed for your career success. Our unique experiential journey provides a framework so you can reach your full potential with leadership talks, development workshops and more, all whilst surrounded by industry leading experts. Join us to unlock personal and professional growth and ignite your career potential.
1. Perform structural, moldflow and thermal analysis.
2. Work within a project team to deliver optimized structural robustness on Dyson products mainly using Finite Element Analysis, both in development and production in the following areas:
Drive design forward and ensure correct decisions are made at all stages of the design process through credible simulation methods.
Pick up technical skills (as needed) to resolve an issue through self-learning or approaching technical mentors.
Work collaboratively with Design Engineers through defining simulation/ experimental targets and adhering to the Dyson development process; Product Life Management (Specification, FMEA, FRACAS), Product Creation Framework and periodic status reporting.
Ensure proper handover of projects with agreed deliverables, from UK to SEA, communicating well with project stakeholders.
3. Proactively assess risks and solve problems impacting the product desired performance or customer satisfaction based on analytics data:
Able to identify characterize, and highlight risk in a clear and concise manner
Find the mitigations of issue(s) through systematic and thorough research/ measurement, present findings to the cross-functional team to drive towards timely and elegant solution.
Drive technical excellence within organization, e.g. promoting best practices of designs for mechanical robustness, either through day to day work within the project or knowledge sharing sessions.
4. Identify and develop new opportunities/ tools methods with the aim of enhancing the performance, reliability and time to market of Dyson products.
Graduating by August 2026.

Ability to analyse and solve problem using established approach.
Demonstrate ability to provide independent viewpoints/argument to a problem.
Ability to plan and prioritise task, typically within a project.
Able to identify technical risks within projects. Expected to suggest specific actions to mitigate risks. Able to contribute in FMEA sessions.
Demonstrate strong written and verbal communication skills in English and ability to collaborate/ interact with team members to deliver project goals.
To be eligible you will need to have no more than two years of relevant work experience post-graduation (PhD students are not eligible for our graduate programmes).
Our workforce is spread across various countries, each with its own unique regulations, cultural norms, and societal expectations. As a result, we continuously review and adjust our benefits offerings to ensure they align with the evolving needs and expectations of our diverse workforce. Our goal is to provide competitive and meaningful benefits while creating an inclusive environment where all employees feel valued and supported, regardless of where they are located or their employment status.
