Our client is looking for an Electronics Engineer to join their team on an initial contract to support the latest iteration of a medical device platform.
This role centres on supporting the second round of DFM changes ahead of manufacturer handover, covering around 15 PCBs all managed in Altium. The work itself isn’t especially complex, but there’s a fair amount of it - small, detail-heavy updates across layout, schematics, footprints, and libraries, alongside some hands-on debug and EMC-driven design tweaks. You’ll be working closely with mechanical and software engineers inside the instrument, contributing to DFM/DFT improvements and documentation updates to get the next hardware version out the door. Strong Altium experience is important given the volume of changes, and there’s a clear preference for someone on site to make collaboration and problem-solving quicker and more effective.
Key Technical Experience:
Supporting bring-up of a new hardware version
Hands-on debugging of electromechanical systems
Identifying and resolving performance gaps from previous designs
Experience implementing design modifications to improve EMC performance
Exposure to medical device development (ideally FDA-regulated environments)
Producing design and documentation updates for hardware release
DFM/DFT updates to existing PCBA designs
Strong experience using Altium for schematic and layout updatesUnfortunately sponsorship is not available for this role.
