Hardware Engineer

The Role You will be involved throughout the hardware development lifecycle, working closely with electronics, RF, software and mechanical engineers. You will have the opportunity to work across digital and analog electronics, power electronics, PCB design, high-speed interfaces and RF integration , while being directly involved in bringing new hardware to life. Key Responsibilities Design digital, analog and power supply circuits , including their integration into RF systems Develop schematics, select components and define hardware architectures Coordinate and contribute to PCB layout and routing Perform circuit calculations and component placement, including connectors, indicators and other system interfaces Design PCBs according to DFM and DFT principles Work closely with mechanical engineers on thermal management, shielding and mechanical integration Support hardware development from initial concept through prototype, testing and production Bring up and debug prototype hardware in the laboratory Identify design issues, investigate root causes and implement improvements Perform hardware measurements and validation using laboratory equipment Work with suppliers and manufacturing partners where required Prepare and maintain technical documentation, including schematics, BOMs and hardware specifications What We Are Looking For You have a strong foundation in electronics engineering and enjoy working on complex hardware where performance and reliability matter. You have: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics or a related field Strong practical experience designing digital, analog and power circuits Experience developing complex electronic hardware and PCBs Solid understanding of PCB manufacturing and DFM/DFT principles Experience with Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro or similar Good understanding of hardware interfaces such as SPI, UART, I²C, CAN, USB, Ethernet and LVDS Experience using laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analysers and logic analysers Strong understanding of PCB layout principles and best practices Experience with hardware bring-up, debugging and prototype validation Experience with the following is an advantage: RF circuit design Signal integrity analysis and simulation EMC/EMI compliance and testing High-speed interfaces such as PCIe, USB 3.x and LVDS High-speed digital design and challenging signal-integrity environments Why This Opportunity? This is not a role where you design a small part of an established product and hand it over to someone else. You will be involved in the journey from circuit concept → schematic → PCB → prototype → laboratory testing → debugging → optimisation . You will work on hardware where performance, size, power consumption, signal integrity and reliability all matter — and where solving one problem can require you to look across the entire system. You can expect: Challenging work across analog, digital, power, RF and high-speed electronics Significant technical ownership and influence over hardware design decisions Hands-on access to prototypes and laboratory equipment Close collaboration with engineers across hardware, software, RF and mechanical disciplines The opportunity to work on new designs rather than simply maintain existing hardware A technically ambitious environment where good engineering ideas are encouraged The chance to develop solutions that move from schematic to functioning hardware
