Electronics Engineer
Hybrid Working - 3 days onsite per week
The Company
A technology innovator developing advanced satellite platforms and mission-ready hardware. You’ll join a multidisciplinary team pushing the boundaries of spacecraft performance, reliability, and manufacturability.
The Role
As an Electronics Engineer, you’ll take ownership of designing and integrating custom electronics that power next-generation satellites. You’ll work across the full lifecycle from early concepts and architecture through to board bring-up, validation, and preparing hardware for launch.
Key Responsibilities
* Lead electrical design for spacecraft subsystems, from requirements capture to detailed schematics
* Select and evaluate components, including sensors, radios, power systems, and high-speed digital devices
* Create PCB layouts (Altium) with strong DFM and reliability considerations
* Design power supplies, monitoring circuits, and high-speed digital interfaces
* Perform circuit simulations, worst-case analysis, and signal/power integrity reviews
* Support board bring-up, debugging, hardware validation, and environmental test campaigns
* Collaborate with software, mechanical, and manufacturing teams to ensure seamless system integration
Experience & Skills
* Solid understanding of analogue and digital electronics
* Hands-on PCB design experience (rigid, flex, rigid-flex)
* Familiarity with FPGA-based systems and high-speed digital design principles
* Experience with communication protocols: I2C, SPI, CAN, UART, USB, RS485/422, PCIe, Ethernet, etc.
* Strong debugging skills using oscilloscopes, logic analysers, VNAs, and similar equipment
* Nice-to-have: space-grade standards, SI/PI tools (e.g., HyperLynx), FPGA coding (VHDL/Verilog), embedded/DSP experience, EMI/EMC-conscious design
What’s on Offer
* The chance to work on real spacecraft hardware with direct mission impact
* Hybrid working environment with modern lab facilities
* Career growth, technical ownership, and involvement in cutting-edge space engineering
* Competitive compensation and a comprehensive benefits package
