TheSenior / PrincipalDigital hardware engineer would be responsible for design, commissioning and test of high-speed digitalelectronicshardware, i.e. Printed Circuit Assemblies (PCAs) on complex systems for airborne Radar products. The successful candidate may be required to supervise other less experienced digital hardware engineers working on the same project. The role will be based at our customers site in Edinburgh and may allow for hybrid working after an initial period of familiarisation onsite. Job Responsibilities: Creatinghigh-quality and robust digitalelectronicsdesigns Documenting and recording deliverables Supporting integration &verificationactivities at hardware and system level Keeping designs under configuration control Providing progress reports
