Senior Electronics Design Engineer (Mixed-Signal / Product Development)

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Electronics Design Engineer to join a UK-based engineering consultancy delivering bespoke electronic products across a wide range of industries, including:

  • Other regulated environments
About the role

This is a hands-on, end-to-end design role where you will be involved in taking products from early concept through to prototype, validation, and manufacture
. You’ll be working on a variety of technically challenging projects, often turning customer ideas into fully realised, production-ready electronic systems. If you enjoy working across different technologies and applications rather than being tied to a single long-term product, this could be an excellent fit.

What you’ll be doing
  • Designing analogue and digital electronic systems
  • Schematic capture and multi-layer PCB design
  • Developing microcontroller-based embedded hardware
  • Supporting prototype build, debugging, and verification
  • Working closely with firmware and mechanical engineers
  • Producing technical design documentation and reports
  • Supporting transfer of designs into manufacture
  • Occasional direct interaction with customers during requirements and design stages
What we’re looking for
  • 8–10+ years’ experience in electronics / hardware design
  • Strong analogue and digital circuit design experience
  • Experience with schematic capture and PCB design tools
  • Ability to interpret datasheets, protocols, and system requirements
  • Strong problem-solving and hands‑on engineering ability
  • Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, project‑based environment
  • Communication protocols: SPI, I2C, CAN, USB, Ethernet
  • Power supply / DC-DC / SMPS design
  • FPGA / CPLD exposure (not essential)
  • EMC testing and failure analysis
  • Experience in regulated industries (medical, ATEX, aerospace, defence)
  • Design for Manufacture (DFM / DFA)
Why this role?
  • Work on a wide variety of technically challenging projects
  • See designs through the full product lifecycle
  • Real hands‑on engineering (not just specification or oversight)
  • Exposure to multiple industries and technologies
  • Work closely with experienced engineers across disciplines
  • Fast‑paced environment where ideas become real products quickly
  • Degree in Electronic Engineering or related discipline
  • Right to work in the UK
Who this role suits

This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy:

  • Solving complex design problems
  • Working across multiple projects and technologies
  • Taking ownership of full product development cycles
  • Working in a consultancy/design services environment
