Senior Electronic Systems Design Engineer Would you like to work on novel healthcare solutions, smart city technology, advanced robotic systems or sensors for autonomous drones? What about mobile ad-hoc radio networks or airfield radar? How do you fancy underwater or aircraft-based sensor and communications systems? These are all recent projects and we need the brightest minds joining our diverse teams to deliver them. Our work is largely driven by technical development and innovation. One of the great advantages of working here is that no two projects are the same. If you are an enthusiastic, adaptable and motivated person who thrives on variety, enjoys learning new skills and facing exciting challenges then this is the place to be. THE ROLE We are looking for a senior electronics design engineer to join the team, possessing the experience necessary to play a key role in architecting and designing new systems and products. The work will require an in-depth understanding of the fundamentals underlying the real-world engineering of systems that will usually have a basis in radio. Experience of modern radio communications and radar systems is highly desirable. In this role you will be distilling client requirements into appropriate feasibility study and systems- level analysis activities. In addition to the technical skills necessary, you will be comfortable explaining complex technical matters to non-technical customers. These initial activities will be followed by the generation of prototype system block diagrams and module specifications, leading to specific work packages that will be shared across the design team. On some projects you will be able to put your schematic-level design skill into practice. The role provides the opportunity to use your technical leadership skills to work with a team to follow exciting new ideas through from concept into reality. You will have the satisfaction of working in a supportive and experienced team of subject matter experts, whilst also mentoring talented graduates.
