What youll do

We're looking for a highly experienced Senior Electronics Engineer to join our team. You will be working in a fast moving environment developing embedded devices for use in our industrial IoT systems. These include edge devices for facilitating low-latency processing of a wide range of technologies, including depth cameras, LiDAR, BLE and RFID as well as higher level control devices.

We are looking for someone with extensive experience of industrial-scale hardware design, throughout the full product life-cycle. You should have extensive knowledge of digital electronics and at least working knowledge of product design lifecycle, qualification and verification methods.

You will be responsible for leading the design of a range of edge devices that are used at scale, in truly unique and exciting projects.

Some experience with wireless technologies would be an advantage as well as wired protocols such as I2C, UART, SPI and CAN. Ideally you'll also have experience in engineering management or leadership roles within an engineering team.

You will be based in our purpose-built R&D facility in the heart of rural Warwickshire, which is situated on an old farm that overlooks countryside. With this in mind, a driving license is essential.
