PCB design and FPGA development projects for government and industry clients to 65k DoE + benefits; Surrey With customers in the government and industry, this established company have a long record of developing technical innovations to address a broad array of challenges. Their projects can involve PCB design, signal processing with FPGAs, low power electronics, low level communication buses, and embedded software development. In this role you would take the lead on items of work, and liaise closely with clients to get the project delivered. You therefore need to be self-motivated and confident in communicating complex technical issues with clients, and providing mentoring when required. You would be joining a team of like-minded and extremely capable engineers working on interesting and varied projects. This is a great environment in which to apply your existing electronics design knowledge, and to continue to expand your capabilities in a culture that values professional development. You will need: At minimum a 2.1 bachelor's degree a relevant STEM discipline from well ranked university together with A s and A at A-level (or equivalent). Ideally, you will also have an advanced degree or PhD in a relevant subject. Substantial experience of designing complex PCBs and/or developing FPGAs with VHDL and/or embedded C or C++ development skills (Linux device drivers would be ideal). Ability to obtain a higher level UK security clearance - i.e. British nationality and resident in the UK for the last 10 years. This role is fully office-based due to the sensitive nature of much of their projects, however the company supports flexible working hours to allow for differing individual circumstances. A competitive remunerations package is on offer to the successful candidate. This includes a pension with generous employer contributions, and annual performance-related bonus. Another top job from ECM, the high-tech recruitment experts. Even if this job's not quite right, do contact us now - we may well have the ideal job for you.
