Job Description:

This role offers the opportunity to work on high-integrity, multi-layer PCB designs across a diverse portfolio of cutting-edge projects, ranging from early-stage R&D through to full-scale production.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and layout complex multi-layer PCBs (4–20 layers) including rigid, flex, and rigid-flex designs
• Support development of analogue, RF, digital, high-speed and power circuits
• Ensure designs meet EMC, signal integrity, and security (e.g. TEMPEST) requirements
• Collaborate with hardware, mechanical, and production teams to ensure design integration and manufacturability
• Engage with suppliers to ensure compliance with DFM, DFT, and fabrication standards
• Help support the upskill of hardware engineers

Experience & Skills Required

• Degree-qualified (or equivalent experience) in Engineering, Physics, or a related discipline
• Proven experience in PCB design and layout of complex, high-density circuits
• Strong knowledge of multi-layer routing, IPC standards, and design constraints
• Experience using industry-standard PCB design tools (e.g. Altium, PADS or similar)
• Understanding of DFM/DFT principles and supplier engagement
• Ability to manage multiple projects and deliver to tight deadlines

Desirable Experience

• Signal integrity or power distribution analysis
• Experience with RF or high-speed digital design
• Familiarity with Gerber/ODB++ data
• Exposure to configuration management tools (e.g. Windchill)
• Schematic capture capability

Security & Eligibility

Due to the nature of the work, candidates must be eligible to obtain UK Security Clearance (SC/DV). This typically requires British citizenship and UK residency history.

Benefits

• Annual bonus scheme
• Private medical insurance
• Generous holiday allowance + option to purchase more
• Pension contribution
• Life assurance
• Flexible working arrangements (including early Friday finish)
• Additional flexible benefits package
• Part time or full time hours to suit you
