A Senior Electronics engineering in instrumentation engineering is urgently required by a global leader in the technologies field. As Senior Electronics engineer you will have demonstrable experience and specific expertise in analogue and digital circuit design preferably in a product development environment.

The work will involve mixed signal design including pre-amplifiers, filters, power supplies, interfacing and analog-digital conversion for precision instrumentation applications. Designs should be safe and be compliant with product standards and legal requirements. Candidates must be UK citizen to apply.

Key Responsibilities

• New product electronics development and integration (design & test, commissioning)

(using CAD, PCB design exp with MCU’s).

• Existing product development (fault finding / improvement / enhancement)
• Support to Production Department test engineers
• Design, prototype and document a system. Take it through to a manufacturability state.
• Work independently on a task or overseeing a team contributing to all aspects of the product development cycle from requirement analysis through design & development, prototyping and into production.
• Some research and investigation into new ideas and techniques that can be applied to the business would be required.
• Produce or sign off design documentation and test specifications.
• Responsible for initiating investigations and corrective actions for design failures or non-performance.
• Responsible for ensuring that test rigs, instrumentation, prototypes and laboratory practices are constructed or undertaken in a safe manner.
• Provide support for bidding/proposal preparation and planning as required.

Qualifications and Experience

• A degree engineering- 1st, 2.1, 2.2 in electronics, or electronics / electrical related engineering
• Knowledge and understanding of product development processes in a commercial environment

Essential
