I'm recruiting on behalf of a leading technology organisation seeking a Lead Electronics Engineer to lead the development of advanced electronics for FPGA and ASIC-based space systems. This is a senior technical leadership position offering responsibility across the full hardware development lifecycle - from specification and detailed circuit design through to manufacture, integration, testing and space qualification.

• Lead complex electronic hardware development and manufacturing activities.
• Design high-speed digital circuits featuring FPGA, ASIC and Ser Des technologies.
• Direct the design of complex multilayer and HDI PCBs.
• Support hardware, software and systems integration, validation and qualification.
• Coordinate internal engineers, PCB layout teams and external manufacturing partners.
• Provide technical leadership and mentoring across multidisciplinary engineering teams.

You will ideally bring:

• Extensive experience in electronic hardware or electronics product design.
• A background in space, aerospace, defence or another safety critical industry.
• Strong high-speed digital design and Ser Des interconnect experience.
• Experience designing complex multi layer HDI PCBs.
• Knowledge of FPGA or ASIC-based systems.
• Experience with schematic capture, PCB design and circuit simulation tools.
• The ability to lead complex projects and influence multidisciplinary teams.

This is an excellent opportunity to take technical ownership of sophisticated space hardware while joining an ambitious organisation delivering next-generation technology.
