As an Electronics Engineer here, you will be part of a capable, experienced electronics engineering group with strong technical depth across analogue, digital and mixed-signal design. It is a setting where careful thinking, solid engineering judgement and clean documentation matter more than slogans, and where good ideas tend to get acted on quickly.

Useful experience and skills for this Electronics Engineer role: * Schematic capture using Altium, OrCAD, Cadence or similar * Analogue and/or digital circuit design at board level * Confident lab work - oscilloscopes, signal generators, spectrum analysers and bench debug * Working from written requirements and producing clear technical documentation * Any of: microcontroller-based design, FPGA, RF/microwave, power, or signal integrity exposure Just as important for an Electronics Engineer joining this team: a methodical, curious mindset, an interest in the underlying physics of what you are building, and a willingness to take a problem from rough idea through to a tested result. Due to the nature of the work, applicants will need to hold UK Security Clearance, or be in a position to obtain it. What is on offer: * A varied Electronics Engineer role with real engineering content - not paperwork * Direct access to senior engineers and the people making decisions * Long-term project visibility - you will see your work go from blank page to deployed hardware * A supportive, low-bureaucracy environment with a sensible approach to work-life balance * Competitive salary based on experience, plus a wider benefits package To apply: If this Electronics Engineer role sounds like the right next step, please apply with an up-to-date CV.
