Electronics Engineer

We’re working with a globally recognised leader in advanced engineering and defence technology, delivering some of the most complex and cutting‑edge systems in the UK today.

They’re now looking for a Principal Electronics Engineer to join a high‑performing, multi‑disciplinary team working on precision guidance and advanced electronic systems.

This is an opportunity to contribute to mission‑critical technology, solving real‑world challenges in a highly technical, collaborative environment.

You’ll play a key role across the full electronics lifecycle, including:

• Requirements capture, schematic design & PCB layout (Siemens EDA – DxDesigner / Expedition)
• Designing across high‑speed digital, FPGA/processor, analogue and power domains
• Performing circuit simulation and signal/power integrity analysis
• Leading and contributing to design reviews and technical discussions
• Driving verification, validation, and transition of designs into production
• Collaborating with systems, manufacturing, and other engineering functions

• Degree in Electronic Engineering (or related discipline such as Physics)
• Strong experience in electronics design (digital, analogue, or signal)
• Background with PCB design tools and development processes
• Expertise in one or more of the following:
• FPGA & processor‑based design (DDR memory, peripherals)
• Analogue signal conditioning, ADCs/DACs
• Power supply design (low noise, compact systems)
• Experience with simulation, DFx, integration & debug
• Ability to work independently and lead technical decision‑making
• Comfortable mentoring and supporting junior engineers

• Work on high‑impact, technically challenging programmes
• Be part of a highly respected engineering environment at the forefront of innovation
• Opportunity to influence designs on complex, real‑world systems
