Senior Digital Electronics Engineer / Consultant – Cambridge, GB

We are a leading technology company providing expertise across engineering to successfully deliver new innovations in the communications systems sector, with projects that may include advanced satellite technologies, warehouse robotics, or voice detection systems.

We are looking to hire a Senior Digital Electronics Engineer.

This role is technical and client‑facing, ideally suited for someone with past commercial consultancy experience.

Responsibilities include technical specification, contributions to architecture, and technical leadership on projects revolving around communications engineering (software, signal processing, AI, RF engineering and related testing).

Requirements

  • Strong academic university background in electronics (or similar), ideally Ph D level. Must have an excellent understanding of electronics theory and fundamentals.
  • Extensive real‑world project experience with electronic circuit design, including high‑speed design, high‑level layout and FPGA design and verification.
  • Expertise in several of the following: use of application processors, FPGAs and So Cs for data throughput and power consumption; embedded interconnects such as DDR4, QSPI, PCIe, JESD204; ECAD tools (ideally Altium Designer) for PCB layout; C and Python on Linux (ideally embedded programming); Verilog/VHDL; DSP applied to RF.

Any additional past consultancy project experience would be advantageous. Similarly, experience on defence projects and prior security clearance would be desirable.

This is an excellent opportunity to advance your career, working on varied and interesting projects with extensive in‑house resources: prototype PCB manufacture, EMC emissions test facility, custom anechoic test chamber, and prototype mechanical workshop.

There may be future opportunities to take on aspects of people management, leadership, and mentorship as part of the company’s support policy on employee careers.

On offer is a competitive salary, medical cover, life insurance and bonuses.

The role is based onsite; occasional home‑working is possible with manager’s consent.

The office site offers onsite parking and is close to bus and train links.
