Junior to Senior Level | Leading Hybrid Policy | Salary dependent on experience, up to £68,000 + benefits
Fancy getting properly stuck into electronic product design, from the first schematic through to something rolling off the production line? Whether you're a couple of years into your career or you've been doing this for a decade, this could be worth a look.
My client is a well-established manufacturer of rugged, high-reliability electronics for demanding markets, the sort of environments where kit has to keep working and failure isn't really an option.
They're part of a larger international group, so there's stability behind them, but the engineering culture is hands-on and you'll have plenty of opportunity to make your mark.
They're open to engineers at different stages of their careers. You might be in your second job, with some solid commercial design experience under your belt and looking for more responsibility. Equally, you might be a seasoned engineer who enjoys taking ownership of complex designs.
The important bit is that you've designed electronics in a commercial environment and understand what it takes to turn a design into a real, manufacturable product.
Depending on your experience, you'll be involved in:
- Developing mixed-signal electronic designs covering analogue, digital and power circuitry
- Capturing schematics, working closely with PCB layout and getting hands‑on with design verification and testing
- Taking products through environmental and EMC testing, learning the ropes or leading the process depending on your experience
- Designing with manufacturing, cost, reliability and component availability in mind
- Working alongside mechanical, software and production engineers to get products out of the door
- Taking increasing ownership of designs, with the opportunity to lead projects and support less experienced engineers as you progress
What would make you a fit:
- A degree in electronics or equivalent experience gained in industry
- Some genuine commercial experience designing electronic hardware, ideally products that have made it beyond the prototype stage
- A good grounding in analogue and digital electronics, with exposure to power electronics and embedded systems being useful
- An understanding of the wider product development process, including testing, manufacturing and design for reliability
- A practical approach to engineering and an appreciation of the commercial realities of getting products designed, built and delivered
- Someone who enjoys solving problems, getting hands‑on and seeing their designs come to life
You don't need to have done everything on that list. If you're earlier in your career, there'll be experienced engineers around you to learn from. If you're further along, there's room to take real technical ownership and influence how products are developed.
Ultimately, they're more interested in what you've actually designed than how many years you've been doing it.
Sound like you, or just fancy an off‑the‑record chat to see if it could be a fit?
