You will be working on a variety of projects and technologies, from designing PCBs with OrCAD to signal processing algorithms in VHDL and embedded C for microcontrollers. You will often be pushing designs to an extreme. The best possible performance to enable a new technique, or extreme low power to open a new use case. Each project will have its unique challenges, and inventing solutions will require deep technical understanding and tenacity.
Requirements:

* PCB design and layout.
* Embedded software development in C or C++.
* Sole British nationality with residence in the UK for the last 10-years. This position requires you to qualify for a high level of security clearance.
