The Company:
This Senior Electronics Engineer opportunity is with a rapidly growing, highly innovative engineering organisation delivering advanced electro-optical, surveillance, and autonomous defence systems into global military and civilian protection markets. With a growing team approaching 100 employees and continued expansion plans, this is an outstanding opportunity for a Senior Electronics Engineer seeking real autonomy, technical ownership, and visible impact.
The company offers candidates the chance to work on cutting-edge electronics that directly support air defence, cUAS, and surveillance operations worldwide. For engineers who want meaningful work, short development cycles, and genuine progression in a high-performing culture, this is a business where your designs quickly move from concept into operational deployment.
Job Description:
The Senior Electronics Engineer will take ownership of advanced electronic circuit and PCB design for mission-critical electro-optical and autonomous tracking systems. In this hands-on Senior Electronics Engineer role, you will work across multiple concurrent projects, taking designs from schematic capture and PCB layout through prototyping, debugging, verification, system integration, and production release.
A key focus of the Senior Electronics Engineer position is PCB design and practical prototyping, including soldering, rework, hands-on debugging, and validation. You will develop production-ready electronics with strong EMC awareness, high-speed interfaces, and robust system performance for harsh real-world environments.
The Senior Electronics Engineer will collaborate closely with software, systems, and mechanical teams to solve complex integration challenges, support field trials, manage component obsolescence, and help introduce new technologies into future product iterations. There is also scope to mentor junior engineers and contribute to best-practice design reviews as the team continues to grow.
This is an excellent opportunity for a Senior Electronics Engineer who enjoys fast-paced project timelines, high technical responsibility, and seeing products deployed into real operational use.
Skills & Experience:
* Degree or masters in Electronic Engineering or similar
* 6+ years experience as an electronic engineer
The successful Senior Electronics Engineer will be degree-qualified in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline, with strong hands-on PCB design and prototyping experience. You should be comfortable taking requirements through full design, assembly, verification, and system integration with minimal supervision.
Strong schematic capture, hardware debugging, EMC-conscious design, and experience with interfaces such as SPI, I²C, UART, Ethernet, or USB are highly desirable. Previous experience delivering electronics into production within defence, robotics, surveillance, or other complex multidisciplinary engineering environments would be particularly relevant.
Equally important is the mindset: the Senior Electronics Engineer should be a practical problem solver, strong communicator, and collaborative team player who thrives in fast-moving environments. This Senior Electronics Engineer role offers excellent long-term progression, technical ownership, and the chance to directly influence products that protect critical infrastructure and personnel worldwide
