A practical, workshop-based role with direct impact on product reliability and improvement.
Why join the team:
Hands-on, workshop-based role focused on real-world testing and fault-finding
Direct impact on product quality, reliability, and design improvements
Broad exposure to low-voltage power electronics (12-24V systems, charging, control circuits)
Opportunity to influence product development from prototype through to production
Chance to help build and shape internal electronics capability within a growing engineering team
What you'll be doing:
Product Development & Test Support
Build, modify, and test electronic prototypes and pre-production units
Develop and execute functional and performance tests on PCB assemblies
Analyse low-voltage circuits including power regulation, charging systems, and control electronics
Interpret schematics, PCB layouts, and BOMs
Identify design weaknesses and work with product teams to support iterative improvements
Testing, Diagnostics & Quality Assurance
Conduct verification and validation testing against product requirements
Perform PCB and component-level fault diagnosis, including production and field failures
Investigate failures from production, endurance, and field returns
Support root cause analysis, corrective actions (CAPA), and pre-compliance test
What you need:
Strong hands-on electronics experience with low-voltage (12-24V) systems
Proven PCB fault-finding and component-level diagnostic skills
Ability to interpret schematics, PCB layouts, and technical BOMs
Experience using test equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes, power supplies, electronic loads)
HNC/HND (or equivalent) in Electrical/Electronic Engineering with mid-level engineering experience
