Developing electromechanical testing techniques for characterising new sensing technologies
We are seeking a hands-on, commercially aware engineer to join this Cambridge-based team developing miniaturised sensor technology. This is a fast-paced development environment, creating technology that will have myriad applications within industry and consumer electronics.
You'll take a leading role, exploring ways to test and characterise their products, specifying test plans, build system, designing electromechanical test rigs and developing LabVIEW-based test software, carrying out analysis or results, and leading investigation into any anomalies. You'll get involved with NPI, and providing mentoring to other members of the team.
You will need:
* A good degree in a relevant STEM subject.
* Expertise in MEMS or technologies based on controlling/measuring gaseous or fluidic flow.
* An excellent understanding of the theory and practice of testing and characterising electronics.
* Experience with MATLAB, Python, and LabVIEW, familiarity with electronics lab equipment (meters, oscilloscopes etc.), CAD skills, hands-on electronics and mechanical fabrication skills.
* Meticulous approach to testing, good analytical skills and the ability to analyse results and pin down root causes.
* Full, existing, and unrestricted right to work in the UK.
This is a challenging role that requires a broad skill set, but you can expect plenty of variety and opportunities to learn working within this highly skilled and innovative team. As the company scales up, this is a great time to join them. They are based in Cambridge and offer a competitive salary and benefits package to the successful candidate.
