Yolk Recruitment is managing a new opportunity for a Lead Electronics Engineer to join an advanced technology powerhouse, developing complex electronic products for international markets.
A business with genuine engineering depth, products combine electronics, embedded firmware, sensing, controlled energy delivery and high-volume manufacture, with new development programmes continuing to move through design, validation and production. It's a strong environment for someone who enjoys technical problem-solving, but wants their influence to reach further than their own individual design work.
An ideal role for someone still hands on but ready to take a broader lead. You may already be the engineer others turn to for guidance, the person trusted with difficult technical issues, or someone who naturally helps others improve. This is a chance to take the next step in your career while staying close to the electronics, firmware and product development challenges that keep the work interesting.
You'll be joining a strong team working across electronics and embedded software, supporting products from development through to validation, regulatory readiness and manufacture. You'll likely have developed expertise in at least one area, but will need a broad appreciation to guide others to work through their own challenges, improving how technical work is delivered, and play a bigger part in the direction and performance of the team.
This is what you'll be doing as Lead Electronics Engineer:
- Taking a lead role across electronics and embedded firmware development.
- Helping engineers work through technical problems in a structured way.
- Supporting electronics activity across schematic capture, PCB, circuitry, testing, EMC and safety.
- Working with embedded firmware engineers around hardware constraints, version control, software release and testing.
- Improving visibility of priorities, blockers and project progress.
- Working with manufacturing, quality, regulatory, suppliers and contract manufacturing partners.
- Supporting technical documentation for compliance, regulatory and manufacturing release.
A strong background in electronics, electronic design, hardware, embedded systems or firmware is required. A good understanding of electronic product development and a practical approach to problem-solving, controlled delivery, documentation and engineering work that needs to satisfy quality, regulatory, compliance or manufacturing requirements is essential. Experience with power electronics, medium or high voltage, EMC, electrical safety, analogue electronics, digital electronics or regulated product development would be useful.
Attractive salary DOE:
- Annual salary review
- 10% combined company pension
- Flexible start and finish around core hours
- Onsite, 1 day WFH
- 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
- Company bonus
- Ongoing training and development
- Career development opportunities
