Senior Electronics Hardware Engineer
Yateley, UK
Full-time | Permanent
Work on Advanced Electronics for Cutting-Edge Engineering Systems
This is an exciting opportunity for a Senior Electronics Hardware Engineer to join a highly advanced engineering environment, developing innovative electronic systems used across complex, real-world applications.
You'll be working on a diverse range of products — from acoustic systems to data-driven instrumentation — playing a key role in delivering high-performance, reliable hardware solutions.
This is a position suited to someone who enjoys technical ownership, problem solving, and working on complex, low-noise, low-power designs within a collaborative engineering team.
Why This Role?
* Work on technically advanced, real-world engineering products
* Strong focus on innovation and new technology development
* Opportunity to take technical ownership of designs
* Collaborative environment across engineering and production teams
* Exposure to full product lifecycle (design → testing → delivery)
* Supportive team with opportunities to mentor and influence projects
* Long-term career development within a specialist engineering environment
The Role:
You'll be responsible for the design and development of electronics hardware across a range of advanced systems, contributing to both new product development and continuous improvement of existing designs.
This role combines hands-on engineering with technical leadership, giving you the opportunity to influence design decisions and ensure high standards across all projects.
Key Responsibilities:
* Design and develop analogue and digital electronics hardware
* Work on low power, low noise system design
* Lead hardware design reviews and support technical decision making
* Develop and support embedded firmware (C / C++)
* Carry out hands-on fault finding across hardware and embedded systems
* Ensure designs meet EMC and regulatory compliance standards
* Produce clear and structured technical documentation
* Collaborate across engineering and production teams
* Support continuous improvement of engineering processes
What We're Looking For:
* Strong experience in electronics hardware design (analogue & digital)
* Experience working with FPGA, MPU, or similar architectures
* Good understanding of low power and low noise system design
* Knowledge of EMC design and testing standards
* Experience with embedded C or C++ on microprocessors
* Strong fault-finding and diagnostic skills
* Ability to take ownership of technical decisions and design direction
* Strong communication and collaboration skills
Desirable Experience:
* Experience with PCB design tools (e.g. Altium)
* Experience working on complex or high-reliability systems
* Background in instrumentation, data logging, or similar technologies
* Experience supporting production or manufacturing environments
Additional Information:
* Occasional travel may be required as part of the role
* Opportunity to mentor and support other engineers within the team
