Job description

Overview

Electronics Technician – Autonomous Robotics | Oxford | £Competitive + Benefits

We're hiring for a high-growth autonomous robotics company building warehouse scanning robots in-house. They need Electronics Technicians to join their production team - people who take ownership, work fast, and deliver quality.

The Company

Led by an ex-F1 CEO, this company brings motorsport-level intensity to robotics. They're scaling rapidly, backed by serious funding, and their robots are deployed with major logistics and manufacturing clients globally.

Their autonomous robots scan entire warehouses and turn them into live digital twins with AI-powered insights. You'll be building the electronics that make it happen.

The Role

You'll build mission-critical wiring looms and electro-mechanical components for autonomous robots. This is a results-focused, ownership-driven role. You own your cell, your tools, your output, and the standard of your work.

Your responsibilities:

• Building custom cable harnesses and wire assemblies to schematics and documentation
• Assembling and integrating PCBs into electromechanical subassemblies
• Precision soldering (through-hole and SMT rework) and crimping to industry standards
• Conducting visual inspections, continuity tests, and functional tests
• Debugging and reworking faulty assemblies with minimal supervision
• Maintaining detailed build documentation and feeding back to engineering
• Following ESD-safe practices and keeping your workspace organized
• Collaborating with electrical and mechanical engineers on full system builds

This is fast-paced. You don't walk past problems - you own and fix them. If something's unclear, you propose a solution today, not "sometime later."

What They're Looking For

Essential:

• 2+ years hands-on experience in electronics assembly (cable harnesses, PCBs, subassemblies)
• Ability to read and interpret wiring diagrams, PCB layouts, and assembly drawings
• Skilled in soldering, wire prep, crimping, and connector assembly
• Familiarity with IPC-A-610 or IPC/WHMA-A-620 workmanship standards
• Experience with hand tools, wire processing tools, and test instruments (multimeters, continuity testers)
• Strong attention to detail and quality-oriented mindset
• Knowledge of ESD handling procedures
• Ability to work autonomously and as part of a team
• Flexibility to work unsociable hours when needed to meet deadlines
• Excellent communication skills and willingness to learn

Desirable:

• Experience in precision manufacturing (motorsport, aerospace, automotive, industrial equipment)
• Background in robotics, automation, or defence electronics
• IPC-A-610 or IPC/WHMA-A-620 certification
• Familiarity with ERP systems
• Experience with low-voltage power systems or sensor wiring

What's In It For You?

• Private healthcare via Bupa (24/7 medical helpline)
• Life insurance and income protection
• Pension: 5% employer contribution
• Employee Assistance Programme (mental wellbeing, financial and legal support)
• 25 days holiday
• Full meals on-site
• Team events and an energetic, collaborative culture

The Reality Check

This is a high-performance environment with tight deadlines and minimal supervision. If that makes you uneasy, this isn't the role. But if you're someone who takes pride in your craft, thrives under pressure, and wants to work on genuinely exciting technology with a team that sets the bar high - get in touch
