We are recruiting an Electronics Engineer to support the transition of advanced electronic products from development into scalable, production-ready manufacturing.

This is a hands-on role focused on electronics production engineering, test development, and manufacturing optimisation, working across both R&D and production environments.

The Role

You will take ownership of the electronic aspects of production readiness, ensuring products are designed, tested, and built in a way that is robust, repeatable, and scalable.

Key areas include:

• NPI and transfer to manufacturing
• Production test strategy and development
• Electronics manufacturing processes
• Continuous improvement and fault resolution

What You Will Be Doing

New Product Introduction (NPI)

• Support transfer of products from R&D into manufacturing
• Define and manage BOMs within ERP systems
• Lead electronics workstreams within NPI projects
• Ensure designs meet DFM / DFT requirements
• Work with design teams to deliver manufacturable solutions

Production Test & Development

• Define and implement production test strategies
• Design and build test fixtures, jigs, and ATE systems
• Support development of test software and scripts
• Deliver robust end-of-line testing and calibration

Manufacturing Process Development

• Improve processes for:
• PCB assembly and integration
• Cable harnessing and electrical build
• Calibration and system integration
• Work with suppliers to maintain build quality and yield
• Resolve production queries related to electronics

Continuous Improvement

• Improve efficiency, quality, and repeatability
• Reduce build time and increase production yield
• Support cost reduction through design and process improvements
• Implement engineering changes to improve manufacturability

Production Support

• Troubleshoot PCB and system-level issues
• Perform root cause analysis and corrective actions
• Support non-conformance and CAPA processes
• Apply structured problem-solving methods (e.g. 8D, FMEA, SPC)

Documentation & Control

• Create clear production documentation:
• Build and test procedures
• Calibration and programming instructions
• Assembly and work instructions
• Support configuration control and engineering change processes

Cross-Functional Work

• Act as the electronics link between R&D, Production, and Quality
• Support supplier engagement and improvements
• Help define standards and best practice within the team

What We Are Looking For

• Practical, hands-on electronics engineer
• Strong problem solver with a structured approach
• Comfortable working across development and manufacturing
• Detail-focused with strong documentation discipline
• Able to improve processes, not just maintain them

Required Experience

• Degree in Electrical / Electronic Engineering or similar
• Experience in electronics production engineering or manufacturing
• Strong understanding of:
• PCB assembly and integration
• Production test methods
• Experience with relevant standards (e.g. ISO9001, IPC610, ESD)
• Experience developing test fixtures or production verification processes
• Strong fault-finding capability at circuit and system level

Desirable Experience

• NPI experience (prototype to volume production)
• Knowledge of DFM / DFT and lean manufacturing
• Calibration systems and electronic measurement equipment
• Exposure to scripting, automation, or test software
• Experience in regulated or quality-controlled environments

What’s On Offer

• Opportunity to shape a new Production Engineering function
• Direct involvement in bringing advanced products into manufacture
• Strong collaboration across engineering and production
• Career development within a high-technology environment
• Competitive salary and benefits

This role suits someone who can take ownership of electronics in production, ensuring products are built, tested, and delivered to a consistently high standard.
