Full job description (from employer)⌄

You'll own the electronics from schematic and PCB design through bring-up, testing, certification and manufacturing. You'll work across analogue, digital, power, wireless and safety-critical electronics, including gas-control circuitry, while working closely with software, engineering, suppliers and manufacturing. What you'll own Schematics and multi-layer PCB layout in Altium Analogue and power design, including high-voltage circuits, protection and drivers Safety-critical gas ignition and flame-sensing circuitry High-speed interfaces including Ethernet, HDMI, LVDS, USB and SDIO Bluetooth/Wi-Fi integration and antenna layout SoM and MCU selection Thermal, EMC, grounding and signal-integrity design DFM/DFT, production test fixtures and automation BOMs, wiring diagrams and cable harnesses Prototyping, soldering, rework, board bring-up and debugging Supplier relationships and certification evidence Who we're looking for You'll ideally have 5+ years' experience taking electronics from design through to certified, manufactured boards. You'll bring: Strong schematic and multi-layer PCB design experience, ideally Altium Strong analogue and power electronics skills High-voltage and safety-critical circuit experience High-speed digital design and signal-integrity knowledge DFM/DFT and production test experience BOM, wiring and harness experience Hands-on prototyping, soldering, rework and board bring-up Strong fault-finding and root-cause debugging skills A 2:1 or above degree in electronics, electrical engineering or a related discipline is preferred, although exceptional candidates without this background will be considered. What you'll know Ideally, you'll also have experience with: Bluetooth/Wi-Fi antenna integration and radio compliance SoM/MCU selection EMC and grounding Thermal management Safe high-voltage/mains working Electronics certification and compliance Production test and manufacturing requirements The person behind the experience We're looking for someone who wants to join early and help build something. You'll be comfortable in a fast-moving environment where processes are still being developed. You'll take ownership, solve problems from first principles, get hands-on with hardware and care about getting things right. You won't wait for someone else to solve a problem. You'll find the root cause, make a decision and get it done
