We are ambitious and constantly seek to innovate in order to deliver better products and services to our customers. We strive to make SRT a rewarding and challenging place to work, where talented, hard-working individuals have the opportunity to make a real impact across the marine industry.

As we continue our growth, we are seeking an experienced Marine Electronics Technician / Engineer. This is a truly progressive role where you, as an individual, can and will make a huge impact on the future growth of the ®em-trak brand!

Please note - the role of Marine Electronics Technician / Engineer is both office-based support in Bristol, and involves international travel in support of our customers (sometimes at short notice).

The Marine Electronics Technician / Engineer is responsible for providing practical marine electronics installation expertise across both ®em-trak products and systems transceiver deployments globally. The role acts as the internal authority on real-world transceiver installation best practice, supporting systems projects, assisting dealers and end users with more complex installation requirements, and helping develop robust installation standards, guidance and training materials to ensure reliable long-term performance in both leisure and commercial marine environments.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Define and maintain installation standards and best practices for transceiver deployments across both ®em-trak products and systems projects.
  • Produce clear installation guidance, visual reference materials and technical documentation to support our customers.
  • Deliver installation guidance and technical training to our partners where required.

  • Provide remote and on-site deployment support including FAT/SAT activities where required.
  • Assist with troubleshooting installation, RF, GNSS, power and connectivity-related issues.
  • Feed field observations, recurring issues and lessons learned back into Engineering and Product teams.

Requirements:

  • Strong marine electronics installation experience.
  • Marine electronics or electrical qualifications such as AMEI (Advanced Marine Electronics Installer) or BMET (British Marine Electrical Technician) are beneficial, however strong practical field experience will be considered equally important, and candidates may be qualified through experience rather than formal certification.
  • Practical understanding of AIS, GNSS, VHF and marine RF systems.
  • Strong troubleshooting and fault-finding ability.
  • Ability to work directly with customers, installers and project teams.

Benefits Package:

  • Excellent salary and package.
