Zero-emission solutions for cities. Human-centred, intelligent design - to revitalise public transportation.
At Arrival, our team is creating best-in-class electric vehicles using a radical new method of design and production. We work with some of the world's leading businesses and governments to achieve our goal of redefining mobility and transport ecosystems, transforming how people and goods travel and enhancing urban environments for all communities.
Innovation, rapid development and testing help us to push the boundaries. Our New Method takes our portfolio of patented technologies created in-house, and combines it with assembly in Arrival Microfactories. It’s a groundbreaking approach, leading to products with maximum functionality, peak efficiency, and an elevated experience – at a much more competitive price than other electric vehicles, and even fossil fuel vehicles.

The Metrology Technician will assist the lead metrology engineer in being a key interaction point between the production quality, production, engineering and industrialisation teams.
You will be focusing your efforts on supporting measurement strategies, programming (CMM etc.), facility set-up and supporting the pre-production builds through and into the Start of Production (SOP). The demand will come from various areas within the business but ultimately you will work within the production/series quality team.
You will work with the lead metrology engineer to assist and form part of a dynamic metrology team. This team will then support ad hoc root cause analysis, series part, low level assembly and fully built product measurement assessments.
Arrival is currently establishing the new Microfactory in Bicester and the metrology team will be key in putting their stamp on the facility, processes and strategies to support all of the above.
A career with Arrival will expose you to the bare bones of a highly ambitious and entrepreneurial technology company, so if you’re interested in creating the future, not just talking about it, we’d love to hear from you.
At Arrival we want all of our employees to feel comfortable bringing their passion, creativity and individuality to work. We value all cultures, backgrounds and experiences, as we truly believe that diversity drives innovation. Join our mission to bring better, more sustainable transportation to communities around the world.
