Senior Hardware Electronics Engineer

Senior Hardware Electronics Engineer | Swiss Deep Tech Zurich Region, Switzerland (Hybrid)

Are you an experienced Hardware Electronics Engineer looking to work on technology that's genuinely pushing the boundaries of what is possible?

We are partnering with an innovative Swiss Deep Tech company that's developing next-generation scientific and high-performance electronic systems used by leading research organisations and technology innovators across the globe.

This is not a high-volume manufacturing environment or a maintenance role. You'll join a collaborative R&D team where engineers have real ownership, tackle complex technical challenges and contribute directly to products that are making an impact worldwide.

If you enjoy designing sophisticated electronic systems from concept through to production, this could be an exceptional opportunity.

As a Senior Hardware Electronics Engineer, you will play a key role in developing advanced embedded hardware platforms, working across the complete product lifecycle, from architecture and design through to testing, validation and production support.

You will be part of a highly collaborative engineering team where innovation, curiosity and technical excellence are genuinely valued.

• Designing high-performance embedded electronic systems
• Developing analogue and high-speed digital hardware
• System architecture and electronic design
• PCB schematic capture and HDI layout
• Working with microcontrollers, high-speed ADCs and FPGA-based hardware
• Hardware bring-up, debugging and validation
• Developing prototype and production test solutions
• Supporting products from early concept through to manufacturing
• Creating engineering and technical documentation
• Collaborating with multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver innovative products

We are looking for someone who enjoys solving complex engineering challenges and takes pride in delivering high-quality hardware.

Ideally you will have:

• Degree in Electrical or Electronic Engineering (BSc or MSc)
• Around 5+ years' experience in hardware electronics design
• Strong analogue electronics design experience
• High-speed digital design expertise
• PCB design, layout and manufacturing knowledge
• Experience with hardware testing, debugging and validation
• Understanding of EMC and product integration
• Practical laboratory and prototyping experience
• Excellent problem-solving skills
• Fluent English

• Python
• Embedded software or microcontroller programming
• FPGA experience
• Signal processing knowledge

• Join an ambitious Swiss Deep Tech company experiencing strong growth
• Work on genuinely innovative technology—not incremental improvements
• Be involved across the full product development lifecycle
• Collaborate with highly talented multidisciplinary engineers
• Enjoy significant technical ownership and autonomy
• Hybrid working (2 days home office)
• Excellent opportunities for personal and professional development
