  • Client interaction to understand and influence requirements, deliver solutions and be involved in bidding for new work.
  • Development team lead, including mentoring junior engineering staff.
  • Research and monitoring of developments in relevant technology to maintain and enhance our leading-edge capability.

The main emphasis of this role is the implementation and delivery of hardware solutions; advice and support from senior technical specialists is expected to be provided, particularly in the early stages of design.

What we are looking for:

We are looking for ambitious, high-calibre people with the following characteristics:

  • Highly motivated with a strong academic background typically in Engineering or Physics a 2:1 or 1st class degree.
  • Understanding of the principles of PCB circuit design and layout.
  • Understanding of the principles of mechanical design
  • Proven record of set-to-work and verification of complex hardware, sometimes under demanding project timescales.
  • Client-facing experience and influencing skills, as well as strong inter-personal skills.
  • Experience of designing products for production.
  • Experience of designing products for compliance against industry standards (eg CE, FCC, DEF STAN).

The package:

You'll receive a very competitive salary (£££ offered depends on level of experience) and other benefits including pension, life assurance and 25 days' (plus bank holidays). In addition there are other non-tangible benefits including a commitment to training, development and career development.
