Electronic Engineer - Space & Aerospace
Location: Stroud / Stonehouse, UK (On-site)
Salary: £58,000 - £65,000 (DOE)
Our client is an emerging leader in advanced sensing and exploration technologies. They are seeking an Electronic Engineer to drive hardware development and help build a world?class internal design function. This is a rare opportunity to join a fast?moving start?up environment where you'll have true ownership across full product lifecycles, contributing to cutting?edge space and aerospace solutions.
Why Apply?
* High-autonomy role where you influence specifications, architecture and overall product direction.
* Opportunity to help build an engineering team from the ground up.
* Work across the entire technology stack, from solar harvesting to embedded ML.
* Benefits include share options, training budget, cycle-to-work scheme, generous annual leave and pension.
What You'll Do
* Lead end-to-end electronic product design, from requirements through to production handover.
* Design and develop PCBs, low-energy architectures and RF/antenna systems (LoRa, long-range low-power).
* Develop MCU firmware, especially for Nordic nRF52 or similar low-power platforms.
* Work closely with manufacturing partners to ensure design-for-manufacture (DFM) excellence.
* Implement Edge ML (CNNs) for audio/image processing and support long-range comms integration.
* Design advanced power-harvesting systems, including photovoltaics and MPPT circuits.
What We're Looking For
* Strong experience in PCB design, RF/antenna systems and low-power electronics.
* Proficiency in MCU firmware development (ideally Nordic nRF52).
* Knowledge of digital signal processing (Fourier/Wavelet) and acoustics is desirable.
* Exposure to Edge ML/IoT and deploying CNNs on embedded platforms.
* Degree in Electronic Engineering or related STEM subject.
* Agile, 'start-up' mindset with the ambition to grow into a technical leadership role.
* Strong communication skills and eligibility for SC security clearance.
