Senior Electronics Systems Engineer – Contract Opportunity (Radar Systems)
I'm currently supporting an exciting opportunity for a Senior Electronics Systems Engineer to join a cutting-edge project within advanced radar systems engineering.
This role sits at a Senior technical level, working closely with the System Design Authority and playing a key role across the full engineering lifecycle — from requirements definition through to integration, testing, and final sign-off.
What you'll be doing:
• Leading on digital electronics and FPGA-based system design
• Working with high-speed interfaces (e.g. JESD204, FPDP)
• Contributing to system architecture, integration & verification
• Collaborating across multidisciplinary teams (RF, software, mechanical, digital)
• Supporting key technical decisions including COTS vs bespoke solutions
• Gaining exposure to advanced technologies including AESA radar systems
What we're looking for:
• Strong background in electronics engineering, with systems-level experience
• Hands-on experience with Xilinx/AMD tools (Vivado, Vitis)
• Experience with devices such as Versal or Zynq UltraScale+
Nice to have:
• Radar systems knowledge or signal/data analysis (MATLAB)
• Experience in integration, verification, or high-integrity environments (e.g. defence)
Contract details:
• Initial 6-month contract
• £80+ per hour (DOE)
• One-stage telephone interview
• Predominantly onsite on the Isle of Wight
