Description:
A small, well-established electronics design consultancy is looking for an all-round Electronic Engineer to join its team on a 4-month contract. You'll work on a wide variety of client projects, taking designs from concept through schematic and PCB layout to prototype and test. It's a hands-on role where you'll see projects end to end rather than working on one narrow piece.
ROLE: Electronic Design Engineer
LOCATION: Staverton, Gloucestershire
RATE: up to £65ph (outside IR35)
DURATION: 3-4 months initial
What you'll be doing
* Designing analogue and digital circuits across a range of client products
* Schematic capture and PCB layout in KiCad
* Component selection, BOMs and working with PCB manufacturers and assemblers
* Building, testing and debugging prototypes on the bench
* Writing design documentation and supporting clients through to production
Essential skills for the Electronic Design Engineer are:
* Hands-on experience with KiCad for schematic capture and PCB layout
* Good all-round electronics knowledge: analogue, digital and mixed-signal design
* Confident with bench equipment: oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, soldering and rework
* Experience taking boards from design through to working prototype
* A practical, flexible approach suited to a small team and varied projects
* Degree or HND in Electronic Engineering, or equivalent experience
Nice to have
* Microcontroller firmware in C (e.g. STM32, PIC, Nordic)
* Design for EMC and compliance testing (CE/UKCA)
* Circuit simulation (e.g. LTspice)
* Consultancy or client-facing experience
Work is predominantly on-site in Cheltenham. Some remote working (1-2 days per week) is available. Working hours can be flexible
