Markets for our projects will be in Defence and Civil sectors.
Orca is providing customers with integrated wireless power and data transfer capabilities into their autonomous assets.
We're going to be making an exciting announcement shortly.
We're seeking someone to join us at the very start. And engineer with experience of electronic power systems, ideally with some experience of induction systems, RF systems generally, and skills in designing making and testing circuits. Ideally you will be Senior Authorised Person, or equivalent, able to work on systems up to 1k V DC and AC.
Location will be nearish to Exeter, but with lots of travel possibilities for demonstrations, testing, customer engagement. Possibility for some flexible working. Salary commensurate with experience.
Lots of opportunities to grow the role as the company grows.
Be part of creating something new and dynamic !
Role Description
This is a full-time, on-site Electronics Engineer role based in the Greater Exeter Area. The Electronics Engineer will design, develop, and optimise electronic circuits and power-related systems, from concept, to build and test, through to small scale production. Day-to-day responsibilities include creating and reviewing schematics, specifying components, performing simulations, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to integrate electronics into final products. The role involves building and testing prototypes, conducting fault diagnosis, and implementing design improvements based on performance data and compliance requirements. There will be lots of communications with users, suppliers, and customers. The Electronics Engineer will also prepare technical documentation, support fabrication, and contribute to continuous improvement of design and testing processes.
Qualifications
- Strong foundation in Electronic Engineering and Electronics, with the ability to apply core principles to practical product development.
- Proficiency in Circuit Design, including schematic capture, PCB layout, and component selection for power and to an extent control systems.
- Background in Electronic or Electrical Engineering, particularly in power systems up to 1 kV, safety standards, and integration with mechanical and control systems.
- Experience with Testing, including test plan creation, validation, fault-finding, and use of common lab equipment (oscilloscopes, multimeters, power analyzers).
- Bachelor's degree (or equivalent experience) in Electronic Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field.
- Ability to interpret technical standards and work to relevant industry and safety regulations.
- Competence with CAD and simulation tools for electronics (e.g., SPICE-based simulators, schematic capture software) is beneficial.
- Effective communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work in multidisciplinary teams and document designs clearly.
- Organized, detail-oriented approach and readiness to work on-site in the Greater Exeter Area.
