Contract: Permanent

A long-established engineering business in Mansfield, supplying electronics solutions into aerospace, space and defence applications, is seeking an experienced PCB Design Engineer to join their growing UK engineering team. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced PCB specialist to work on advanced multi-layer board layouts for mission‑critical systems, supporting a wide variety of high‑reliability applications.

The Role

You’ll be responsible for the design, development and documentation of complex printed circuit boards (Flex and Rigid‑Flex). Working alongside electrical engineers and internal manufacturing teams, you will ensure designs meet industry standards, regulatory expectations and performance requirements across multiple signal types and environments.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop PCB layouts (Flex/Rigid‑Flex) to established standards
• Produce multi‑layer PCB designs for Analog, Power, Digital, High‑Speed, Impedance‑Controlled and RF applications
• Complete full layout activities including schematic review, part library creation, placement, routing and Gerber generation
• Use Altium Designer for all PCB layout work

Documentation & CAD

• Produce and maintain technical documentation, drawings, test procedures and design specifications
• Prepare fabrication and assembly documentation using CAD tools (SolidWorks)
• Support internal engineering and manufacturing teams with design queries

Problem Solving & Collaboration

• Identify and resolve issues throughout the PCB design cycle
• Work closely with electrical engineers to refine and define PCB requirements
• Provide input relating to manufacturability, stack‑up, materials, DFM/DFX and design constraints

Ideal Experience & Background

• Proven experience as a PCB Design Engineer
• Strong background in Flex/Rigid‑Flex layout design
• High proficiency with Altium Designer
• Knowledge of high‑density PCB design, impedance control, high‑speed signals and RF layouts
• Understanding of PCB layer stack‑up, EMI/EMC, thermal integrity, signal integrity and power plane design
• Familiarity with Polar Instruments, SolidWorks
• Strong understanding of electronic components, circuitry and IPC standards
• Experience with PCB fabrication processes, materials, stack‑ups and assembly/testing (DFM/DFX)
• Ability to interpret and produce technical drawings and schematics
• Experience integrating mechanical and electrical design in 3D environments

Why apply?

• Work on cutting‑edge, high‑reliability electronics projects
• High autonomy and influence within the design function
• Stable organisation with a strong engineering culture
• Permanent role offering up to £50,000
