Reporting to the Head of Product Design and Development, you will be a key member of the Design Engineering team, responsible for the analysis, design, development and continual improvement of innovative electronic products for manufacture, leveraging new and emerging technologies to support the company's growth objectives.
Working under the guidance of Principal and Senior Engineers, the role requires the delivery of high quality engineering outputs, including schematics, PCB designs, simulations, calculations, technical specifications, drawings, bills of materials and user manuals to support engineering change and approval processes.
You will actively support the full product lifecycle assessment across the existing product portfolio, managing design modifications, component obsolescence, cost, and reliability improvements.
In parallel, you will contribute to project management activities by supporting planning, scheduling and risk management to ensure projects are delivered to agreed time, cost, and quality targets, while collaborating closely with cross functional teams, including mechanical, software, manufacturing, and product management, to ensure alignment with product roadmaps and priorities.
Strong engagement with manufacturing is required to drive Design for Manufacture and Test (DFM/DfT), improve build and test processes, enhance product quality, and provide hands on technical support to resolve production issues.
The role also involves coordinating with procurement, supply chain, and vendors to ensure timely sourcing of components and quality for prototyping and production.
The position requires a mid senior level of expertise in analogue and digital circuit design, PCB layout and review, power electronics, embedded systems, component selection and compliance (e.g. EMC, safety, and relevant regulatory standards), alongside proficiency with CAD and simulation tools, design verification and validation, failure analysis, and lifecycle documentation, complemented by strong communication, problem solving, stakeholder engagement, and continuous improvement skills.
This position offers numerous opportunities for professional development, including training programs and workshops to enhance your skills and knowledge in electronics engineering and railway signalling. You will benefit from mentorship by experienced engineers who will guide you through your professional growth and development.
The role encourages both autonomy and initiative, allowing you to take ownership of your work and responsibilities. At the same time, you will be an integral part of a collaborative team, contributing to a supportive and dynamic work environment. Demonstrating your skills and dedication can lead to career advancement within the company.
