Senior Electronic Engineer

Senior Electronics Engineer - Cambridge

If you're the type of engineer who enjoys taking a concept scribbled on a whiteboard and turning it into a real, manufactured product, this could be worth a look.

We're working with an established Cambridge technology company that develops innovative products for global organisations across a range of high-tech sectors. One project might involve electronics for a complex electromechanical system, the next could see you solving a completely different technical challenge for an international customer.

This isn't a role where you'll spend years making minor updates to a legacy product.

Instead, you'll work alongside a multidisciplinary team of talented engineers, scientists and designers developing new products from concept through to manufacture.

The role would suit an experienced Electronics Engineer who enjoys hands-on product development and embedded software, and is keen to increase their influence on projects whilst remaining technically involved.

Senior Electronics Engineer - What you'll be doing

  • Electronic circuit design and development
  • Embedded software development (C/C++)
  • Prototyping, testing and problem solving
  • Working as part of multidisciplinary product development teams
  • Supporting products from concept through to manufacture
  • Presenting technical progress internally and to customers
  • Increasing involvement in technical leadership and project ownership as your role develops

Senior Electronics Engineer - We'd like to see

  • Commercial experience designing electronic systems
  • Embedded software development experience
  • Strong practical electronics skills
  • Enjoyment of hands-on engineering and problem solving
  • Good communication skills and ability to work across disciplines
  • A strong academic background in Electronic Engineering or a related discipline

Particularly interesting backgrounds

We're keen to speak with engineers who have developed real products rather than purely theoretical designs.

That could include experience within:

  • Electronics product development
  • Embedded systems
  • Medical devices
  • Instrumentation
  • Scientific equipment
  • Robotics
  • Industrial electronics
  • Consumer products

Why people join

Engineers who thrive here tend to be curious, practical and enjoy variety.

You'll gain exposure to a broad range of technologies, work closely with experienced multidisciplinary teams and have genuine opportunities to influence technical direction whilst continuing to develop your own skills.
