Hardware Engineer

Hardware Engineer

We are recruiting for a Hardware Engineer to join an established engineering team developing complex electronic systems and high-performance hardware products.

This is a hands-on, end-to-end electronics design role for an engineer who can take hardware from system requirements and initial concept through detailed design, verification, manufacture and product introduction.

Key Responsibilities

* Translate system requirements into robust board-level hardware designs.

* Design high-speed digital electronics and support analogue circuit simulation.

* Develop multilayer PCB designs, layouts and signal integrity solutions.

* Produce schematics and PCB designs using Altium, OrCAD or similar CAD tools.

* Lead hardware verification, validation, testing, troubleshooting and design reviews.

* Write test specifications, circuit descriptions and technical documentation.

* Support FPGA-based hardware using VHDL and Embedded C where required.

* Use MATLAB and scripting for hardware configuration, test and verification.

* Support RF-related hardware, manufacturing introduction, component selection and obsolescence management.

* Deliver hardware designs to agreed schedule, quality and budget requirements.

Required Experience

* Strong electronic hardware design / electronics engineering background.

* Proven experience designing products from requirements through to manufacture.

* High-speed digital design and multilayer PCB experience.

* Signal integrity and board-level design knowledge.

* Schematic capture, PCB layout and hardware simulation experience.

* Hardware verification, validation, debugging and test experience.

* Degree or equivalent in Electronics Engineering or a related discipline.

Experience with Altium, OrCAD, FPGA, VHDL, Embedded C, MATLAB, RF, radar systems or Silicon Expert is advantageous.
