Senior Hardware Design Engineer

As this company finalizes a new platform, they need to expand its capabilities with a fibre-optic version using optical sensors and transmitters. This has created a new opportunity for an experienced Senior Hardware Design Engineer who understands how optical signals are received and processed.

It’s an ideal role for a hardware engineer who is keen to take ownership of completely new designs and work with autonomy, rather than simply modifying or making changes to existing designs.

As a Senior Hardware Design Engineer, you will:

• Take ownership of existing products and drive the development of new fibre-optic-based solutions.

• Lead the design process, from conceptualization to prototyping and production.

• Work on embedded hardware design, including schematics, microcontrollers, and interfacing.

• Collaborate with a talented team, including FPGA and HW/SW engineers.

• Integrate optical signals, battery systems, RF circuits, and displays.

• Extensive experience in embedded hardware design.

• An understanding of how optical signals are processed and received.

• A proactive attitude, with the ability to work independently and take initiative.

Desirable skills:

• Battery-powered devices, embedded software, FPGA, RF circuits, and high-speed data capture., I’m not an engineer myself, but have a BSc in Computer Science so have a technical understanding. Feel free to send your CV and I can match you to our other suitable roles. I specialise in recruiting software and electronic engineers for technology companies throughout the UK.
