  • Schematic & PCB Capture: Design robust analog and digital circuits using advanced engineering software.
  • Circuit Simulation: Model and simulate electrical circuits to ensure performance before physical prototyping.
  • Design Optimization: Account for Design for Manufacture (DFM), Design for Assembly (DFA), and cost constraints.
  • Prototyping: Build and test prototype electronic circuits, wiring harnesses, and associated systems.
  • Lifecycle, Integration & Testing
  • Lifecycle Management: Apply engineering practices across concept development, design, integration, test, and sustainment.
  • V&V Activities: Execute test, evaluation, characterisation, verification, and validation of subsystems with test engineers.
  • Design Sign-off: Conduct rigorous test activities to verify requirements and formally sign off on designs.
  • Diagnostics: Perform research, diagnostics, and hardware troubleshooting on equipment and prototypes.
  • Collaboration & Project Support
  • Systems Alignment: Partner with System and Project Engineers to ensure hardware meets overall project requirements.
  • Cross-Disciplinary Teamwork: Work with other engineering disciplines to deliver cohesive, complete system designs.
  • Planning: Develop, review, update, and modify electrical design plans alongside project work schedules.
  • Problem Solving: Resolve design issues, focusing on manufacturing effort, repeatability, and failure analysis.
  • Documentation & Governance
  • Technical Writing: Document designs, calculations, design options, justifications, and engineering decisions.
  • Design Reviews: Prepare technical documentation to conduct and support formal design reviews.
  • Product Analysis: Provide detailed electronics design analyses to support broader product development activities.

Experience & Qualifications

Essential Criteria

  • Experience: Minimum of 3 years of experience in a similar electronics design role.
  • Circuit Design: In-depth knowledge of both digital and analog circuit design.
  • Autonomy: Proven ability to work independently with limited supervision.
  • Engineering Lifecycle: Demonstrated experience spanning design, integration, test, and sustainment.
  • Soft Skills: Collaborative mindset, excellent communication skills, and strong problem-solving aptitude.
  • Computer Literacy: Advanced computer skills, including engineering design software, databases, and spreadsheets.

Desirable Criteria

  • CAD Tools: High-level expertise in circuit design using Altium Designer is most desirable.
  • Hardware Architecture: Expertise in embedded microcontrollers, DSPs, and FPGAs.
  • Communication Protocols: Knowledge of communication buses (e. g., I2C, CAN, SPI, Ethernet).
  • Environment: Experience working within multi-disciplinary teams in structured product development.
  • Industry Sector: Prior experience working within the Defence sector.
