Job description

YT Tech is proud to partner with an industry-leading technology designer and manufacturer to recruit an Electronics Engineer. Based near Worcester.

We are looking for an ambitious engineer with around two years of product development experience to join a dynamic, multidisciplinary team to design, debug, and bring new hardware systems to life.

Key Responsibilities

• Hardware Design: Create analogue and digital circuits, schematic captures, and PCB layouts using Altium Designer.
• Testing & Bring-Up: Conduct circuit simulation, bench testing, debugging, and initial board bring-up using oscilloscopes, logic analysers, and spectrum analysers.
• Prototyping: Perform hands-on prototyping, board modifications, and precision soldering down to 0402 components.
• System Integration: Work with common communication protocols (CAN, I2C, SPI, UART, Ethernet) and collaborate across software, mechanical, and systems teams.
• Lifecycle & Manufacturing Support: Support products from initial concept through to production, investigating hardware faults and implementing corrective actions alongside manufacturing.
• Documentation: Maintain thorough records of designs, test procedures, and engineering changes.

Required Experience

• Education: First-Class Bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering (or a related discipline) from a recognised UK university.
• Experience: Approximately 2 years of professional engineering experience in a product development environment.
• EDA Tools: Practical experience using Altium Designer for schematics and layout.
• Analogue Circuitry: Background in analogue design and simulation (e.g., amplifiers, signal conditioning, filters).
• Bench & Rework Skills: Proven hands‑on debugging skills and practical soldering/modification abilities for prototyping.
• Protocols & Delivery: Familiarity with common interface protocols (CAN, I2C, SPI, UART, Ethernet) and an understanding of full product lifecycle processes.

Desirable Skills

• Experience with STM32 microcontrollers and development environments.
• Knowledge of EMC design practices and compliance processes.
• Exposure to embedded software development or working within regulated/safety‑critical environments.

Please note - Sponsorship is not possible for this role & it's a full time office position
