Senior PCB Design Engineer | Cambridgeshire | £45-60k
Location: Cambridge
Salary: £45,000 - £60,000 + Comprehensive Benefits - depending on experience
Sector: Aerospace, Defence, & High-Performance Tech
Are you a PCB specialist who excels at turning complex, draft schematics into high-integrity physical reality? Do you thrive in a high-pressure, fast-paced environment where your designs move from DC all the way to mmWave frequencies?
We are seeking a delivery-focused Senior PCB Design Engineer to join an elite technology consultancy. Reporting directly to the Director of Hardware, you will take full ownership of the PCB design process, strengthening the hardware execution capability for some of the most challenging engineering projects in the UK.
The Role
This isn't just a layout role-it's a position for a design owner. You will be the authority on PCB best practices, working alongside world-class hardware and mechanical engineers to resolve complex integration tasks. Whether it's high-performance FPGA platforms or advanced RF systems, you will ensure every design is completed, reviewed, and released with absolute discipline.
Your Technical Profile
Software Expertise: Highly proficient in Altium Designer (Schematic capture and Layout) is essential. (Experience with Siemens PADS for legacy work is a plus).
Technical Breadth: Proven track record in RF, Digital, Analogue, and Power PCB design.
HDI Mastery: Expert knowledge of High-Density Interconnect technologies, including:
Micro vias, Stacked vias, Via-in-Pad, and Back-drilling.
Multi-layer controlled impedance RF designs (up to mmWave).
Constraint Management: Advanced skills in constraint managers for Net, Pin pair, and Xnet length matching.
Standards & Manufacturing: Deep understanding of IPC standards for high-reliability products, alongside DFM (Design for Manufacture) and DFA (Design for Assembly) techniques.
The Ideal Candidate
Education: Degree, HNC, or HND in Electronic/Electrical Engineering.
Experience: Minimum of 5 years in electronics hardware design and product development.
Mindset: You are a "finisher." You work with urgency and discipline, ensuring no "loose ends" remain when a design is released.
Communication: Confident in performing design reviews for both internal teams and external high-profile customers.
Why Join This Team?
Technical Ownership: Shape and drive the PCB design process and library management from the ground up.
Project Variety: Work on a diverse portfolio of projects where no two boards are the same-covering everything from robotics to space-based systems.
Professional Standards: Work within an ISO9001 environment that values quality, continuous improvement, and engineering excellence.
Collaborative Environment: Close integration with mechanical and hardware teams to solve the "art of the possible" in tight form factors.
The Rewards
Salary: £45,000 - £60,000 (dependent on experience).
Growth: A role that rewards innovation and offers a clear path toward technical leadership or specialized consultancy.If you are a self-motivated PCB expert who prides themselves on "getting it right the first time," apply today with your CV
