Apply for the PCB Hardware Design Engineer
Location: London
Job Description:

We’re looking for a hands-on PCB Hardware Design Engineer to join our team in London and help develop high-quality electronic products from concept through to production.

This is a great opportunity for an engineer who enjoys practical, real-world hardware development and wants broad ownership across schematic design, prototype bring-up, debugging, and production support.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll work on the design and development of PCB hardware for new and existing products, contributing across:

  • Schematic capture and board-level design
  • Mixed-signal, digital, and power circuitry
  • Prototype bring-up, testing, and debugging
  • Component selection and BOM creation
  • Design for manufacture and production support
  • Cross-functional collaboration with firmware, mechanical, and product teams

What we’re looking for

You’ll likely have:

  • Around 5–10 years’ experience in PCB or electronic hardware design
  • Strong experience with schematic capture and PCB development using Altium Designer or similar
  • Hands-on experience with board bring-up, lab debugging, and test
  • Experience designing digital and mixed-signal boards for commercial products
  • A solid understanding of interfaces such as SPI, I2C, UART, USB, Ethernet, or CAN
  • Good grounding in power design, EMC basics, grounding, decoupling, and manufacturability
  • A practical mindset and the ability to solve hardware problems effectively

Nice to have

  • Experience with processor-based or higher-speed digital designs
  • Exposure to FPGA-connected hardware
  • Experience supporting products through verification and into production
  • Familiarity with EMC or compliance testing

Why join us

  • Work on real products with real ownership
  • Be part of a collaborative, engineering-led environment
  • Take designs from concept through to shipped hardware
  • Join a London-based team where your work will have visible impact

We’re looking for someone who is thoughtful, hands-on, and enjoys building reliable hardware in a fast-moving environment.
