The Company
This is an established specialist engineering business that designs and manufactures technically complex products for demanding applications.
Following the award of a significant new project, the company is investing heavily within its engineering team and is now looking to recruit 2 experienced Electronics Design Engineers.
This vacancy is being recruited exclusively by White Label Recruitment.
The Role
This is a hands-on electronics design position with a strong focus on analogue and low-noise electronics.
You'll have the opportunity to take ownership of designs through the complete development lifecycle, rather than focusing on one small element of a larger project.
Responsibilities will include:
* Designing analogue electronics, including low-noise and variable-gain amplifier circuitry.
* Developing front-end electronics that interface with transducers and other low-level signals.
* Taking designs from initial concept through to completed and tested hardware.
* Circuit design, analysis and simulation.
* Schematic capture and PCB layout.
* Designing complex, high-density, multi-layer PCBs.
* Building and testing prototypes.
* Investigating noise, signal integrity and circuit performance issues.
* Producing technical documentation and reports to demonstrate product performance.
* Working closely with other Electronics, Mechanical and Project Engineers on a major new engineering programme.
This is predominantly an analogue electronics position, rather than a firmware, FPGA or digital electronics role.
The Person
We're looking for an Electronics Engineer with a strong understanding of the fundamentals behind analogue circuit design.
You will ideally have:
* Previous experience as an Electronics Design Engineer, Electronics Engineer, Hardware Engineer, Electronics Hardware Engineer or similar.
* Strong hands-on analogue electronics design experience.
* Experience designing low-noise analogue circuitry.
* A good understanding of amplifiers and signal conditioning.
* Experience with schematic capture and PCB design/layout.
* Experience developing multi-layer PCBs.
* Experience using Altium Designer would be beneficial but isn't essential – experience with other professional PCB design packages will be considered.
* Experience with LTspice or another SPICE simulation package.
* The ability to understand and troubleshoot analogue circuits at a fundamental level rather than relying solely on component data sheets.
* Experience taking electronic products from concept through prototype, test and validation.
* A degree or equivalent qualification in Electronics, Electronic Engineering, Physics or a related discipline would be beneficial.
Previous experience within this company's specific industry is not essential. Engineers coming from other technically demanding sectors involving analogue, low-noise, instrumentation, sensors or transducer-based electronics are encouraged to apply.
Due to the nature of some of the projects undertaken by the business, candidates will need to be eligible to obtain the relevant UK security clearance.
Package & Benefits
* Salary up to circa £60,000, dependent on experience.
* Hybrid working available, with the exact arrangement to be discussed.
* 37.5-hour working week.
* Early finish on Fridays.
* 25 days' annual leave plus bank holidays.
* Opportunity to work on a significant new engineering programme from its early stages.
* Genuine ownership of electronics design from concept through to finished hardware
