Avanti is working with an innovative engineering business developing advanced industrial technology used across a wide range of global manufacturing applications.

They're looking for a Senior Electronics Engineer to join a small, highly capable R&D team where you'll have genuine ownership of electronic designs from concept through to production.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys solving complex analogue design challenges and wants to work on technically varied products rather than being pigeonholed into one small area.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll be responsible for the complete design and development of electronic hardware, including:

  • Analogue circuit design
  • Mixed-signal PCB design
  • Schematic capture and PCB layout
  • Prototype build and bring-up
  • Hardware testing and debugging
  • Product validation
  • Supporting manufacturing and product improvements
  • Working across the full product lifecycle

This is a genuinely hands-on role where you'll regularly be in the lab developing, testing and refining your own designs.

What They're Looking For

The biggest requirement is someone with strong analogue electronics design experience.

You'll be comfortable designing circuits from first principles and have a solid understanding of how electronic circuits actually work.

You'll ideally have experience of

  • Analogue circuit design
  • Op amps
  • MOSFET and transistor circuits
  • Power supplies and voltage regulators
  • Signal conditioning
  • RC networks and filters
  • Circuit simulation (SPICE or similar)
  • PCB design and schematic capture using Altium or similar CAD tools

You'll also have some exposure to

  • High-speed digital PCB design
  • LVDS
  • Signal integrity
  • SPI, I2C, CAN Bus, RS485 or Ethernet interfaces

Experience with Python, C or FPGA development would be advantageous but isn't essential.

About You

You'll be someone who enjoys getting stuck into engineering challenges and taking ownership of your work.

You'll be confident working independently while collaborating with a close-knit engineering team and comfortable spending time on the bench building and debugging prototypes.

  • What's On Offer
  • Flexible benefits package worth around £6,000 per year
  • Hybrid working (where projects allow)
  • 37.5-hour week
  • Genuine end-to-end product ownership
  • Technically varied projects
  • Small, experienced R&D team
  • Excellent long-term career opportunity
