About Dyson

How we work

We start with a problem. Something that frustrates or nags because it doesn't work properly. It could be any everyday object. Then we figure out how to make it work better. After sketching, we move to prototyping and testing. What's working? What isn't? We spend a lot of time - in fact most of our time - failing.

That's good. We see failure as an opportunity, not an obstacle. Failing and learning in equal measure.

Dyson

A third of the 2,950 people at Dyson are engineers or scientists. We started with vacuum cleaners, but we also develop hand dryers, fans and motors – all of which solve a problem long-forgotten (or long-ignored) by other manufacturers. But this is only the start. Now we're searching for the next generation to work on developing future Dyson technologies. People with bright ideas and a healthy dose of frustration.
