Job Overview
We’re looking for a systems-focused electronics engineer who thrives on turning complex functional requirements into fully integrated hardware solutions, from early concept through to production and deployment. In this role, you’ll take ownership of system-level electronic design, defining architectures, flowing down requirements, and breaking down equipment and subsystems into clearly defined functions, interfaces, and responsibilities. You’ll shape how everything connects, managing interconnects between subsystems and external equipment, and producing high-quality system schematics, wiring diagrams, and interface control documentation that form the backbone of robust, reliable designs.
Collaboration is at the heart of this position. You’ll work closely with mechanical, firmware, software, and manufacturing teams to ensure seamless system integration, guiding designs through validation, acceptance testing, and into operational use. From hands‑on system integration and root cause analysis to ensuring compliance with safety, EMC, and regulatory standards, you’ll play a key role in delivering dependable electronic equipment solutions.

Qualifications
- Ideally a Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Electronic Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Strong experience in system-level electronic design and integration.
- Proven ability to define equipment architectures, interconnects, and interfaces.
- Solid understanding of analogue and digital electronics.
- Ability to read and produce system schematics, wiring diagrams, block diagrams, and technical documentation.
- Excellent problem-solving, communication, and documentation skills.
- Experience with systems design tools (e.g. DOORS, Rhapsody, MATLAB Simulink).
- Desirable but not essential skills: experience with power distribution and grounding strategies; knowledge of communication protocols (CAN, Ethernet, HDLC, SPI, I²C, UART); familiarity with EMC/EMI mitigation at system level; experience in regulated industries (automotive, aerospace, rail, medical, defence); experience with SPICE simulator software.
