Electronic Engineer - Production & Manufacturing Support

Location:

Harrogate Salary:
Up to £55,000 DOE The Opportunity Are you an engineer with an electronics background who thrives on the production floor, working hands-on to get products from prototype into reliable, high-volume manufacture? Our client is a market-leading IoT technology company developing innovative electronic products for global markets. They're looking for a hands-on engineer to lead product introduction into manufacturing, drive continuous improvement on the production line, and act as the technical bridge between design, manufacturing, and suppliers.

Key Responsibilities Lead New Product Introduction (NPI) and production ramp-up activities, working closely with manufacturing teams to bring products from prototype to volume build. Partner day-to-day with production operators, line leaders, and manufacturing engineers to resolve build issues and keep output flowing. Work with external suppliers and contract manufacturers to ensure products are optimised for volume manufacture. Drive Design for Manufacture (DFM) and Design for Test (DFT) improvements, feeding practical, production-floor insight back into product design.

Develop and maintain test equipment, fixtures, and verification procedures used in production. Carry out fault finding and root cause analysis on production issues, and implement corrective actions. Support quality, reliability, and cost-reduction initiatives across the manufacturing process. Provide light-touch electronics support (analogue/digital circuits, PCB-level troubleshooting) as needed to resolve production issues. About You Degree qualified in Electronics Engineering or a related discipline.

Proven experience supporting products through medium or high-volume manufacturing environments. Comfortable working closely with production teams, suppliers, and contract manufacturers on a daily basis. Strong hands-on fault-finding and problem-solving skills in a manufacturing setting. Working knowledge of PCB assembly, SMT processes, EMC considerations, and manufacturing test methods. Some background in analogue/digital electronics design is useful but not the main focus of this role.

Experience with NPI, IoT devices, embedded electronics, or leading production-floor technical teams would be advantageous. What's on Offer? A central role in taking products from design into successful, reliable volume production. Close, ongoing collaboration with manufacturing, suppliers, and cross-functional teams. Opportunities for technical growth and progression within a production-focused engineering environment. If you're a hands-on engineer who enjoys being close to the production line and solving real manufacturing challenges, we'd love to hear from you.
