Description

Your mission Native is an independent design and innovation studio based in Shoreditch, where we've been developing physical and digital products for over twenty years. We work across early-stage concepts, functional prototypes, and technically ambitious R&D - translating ideas into things that actually exist in the world. We're not currently hiring for a specific graduate role, but we're keen to connect with talented people who are starting out and want to build a career doing genuinely interesting work. If you have a background in design engineering, mechanical or electronic engineering, mechatronics, or software and technology development, we'd welcome a conversation. As a junior member of the team, you'd be embedded in a multidisciplinary environment - contributing to concept development, prototyping, and testing, working under the guidance of senior engineers and designers, and growing your skills across a range of projects and clients. Your profile We're interested in people who are curious, hands-on, and keen to develop across disciplines. You might bring some of the following: A foundation in design engineering, mechanical engineering, electronics, mechatronics, or a related technical field. An interest in software or technology development, whether that's firmware, embedded systems, application development, or something broader. Some exposure to CAD, prototyping, PCB design, or development tools - through coursework, projects, or personal work. The ability to communicate clearly, work collaboratively, and ask good questions. An appetite for working in a fast-moving, creative R&D environment where no two projects are the same. We're not looking for expertise across every area - we're looking for people with solid foundations, genuine curiosity, and the drive to grow. Why us? Native has been independent for over twenty years. That matters, because it means we work on the projects we believe in and take a long-term view on quality and craft. Joining us as a graduate means being part of a small, senior team where your contribution is visible and your development is taken seriously. The work is varied - spanning physical product development, electronics, software, and emerging technology - and the studio culture reflects that breadth. We're based in Shoreditch, well connected and surrounded by a strong design and technology community. We offer 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, enhanced parental leave, Bupa private medical insurance with 24/7 GP access and mental health support, a health and wellness cashback plan, gym discounts through Hussle, and access to YuLife wellbeing benefits. We also support professional development through learning opportunities, industry talks, exhibitions, and visiting speakers. About us Native is an independent design and innovation firm, with a unique blend of industrial, digital, and service design expertise. We pioneer ground-breaking products and services for some of the world’s most innovative brands across consumer electronics, healthcare, wellness and automotive. We pride ourselves on having assembled a world class team of designers, developers, anthropologists, strategists, engineers, and tastemakers. They have come to our studios from all over the world and share a passion for brilliant creative thinking and a ruthless attention to detail.
