Job description

A Senior Electrical Design Engineer is sought to join an innovative engineering team in Hampshire, contributing to the design and development of advanced electrical solutions for specialist, design-to-order projects operating in harsh environments.

The Senior Electrical Design Engineer, Hampshire, will be expected to develop your understanding in the field, learning from peers and senior engineers in technical areas and industry best practices. This includes exposure to electrical design principles, design-for-manufacture processes, regulatory compliance, and production-level engineering for bespoke systems.

Responsibilities include:

• Work with engineering, production, and project teams to define design requirements and technical specifications for complex electrical assemblies and electronic enclosures.
• Create schematic designs, circuit diagrams, cabling layouts, interconnect solutions, and control and safety-related electrical systems using electrical CAD tools such as SolidWorks Electrical or similar platforms.
• Develop and execute verification and validation activities, including prototype builds, testing, and compliance checks.
• Debug and validate electrical systems using appropriate tools, supporting fault-finding activities throughout the design lifecycle.
• Collaborate with mechanical, manufacturing, and procurement teams to ensure seamless integration, manufacturability, and reliability of all electrical designs.
• Maintain comprehensive technical documentation, including bills of materials, drawings, specifications, and compliance documents, ensuring alignment with UKCA/CE and other industry standards.
• Support production and wider engineering teams with technical queries and subject matter expertise across electrical and electronic disciplines.

Key skills & experience:

• Degree or equivalent qualification in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline.
• Proficiency with electrical CAD tools (SolidWorks Electrical ideal, but similar platforms also considered).
• Practical experience designing electrical systems for electronic assemblies, enclosures, or harsh-environment applications.
• Strong understanding of regulatory frameworks, including UKCA/CE marking and standards such as BS EN IEC 62368-1.
• Excellent problem-solving, analytical, communication, and teamwork abilities.
