• Strong knowledge of analogue and digital electronics, including sensing, signal conditioning, filtering, ADC/DAC interfaces and power supplies.
• Experience with microcontroller-based hardware and communication interfaces such as CAN, SPI and I²C.
• Experience in schematic capture and PCB design or layout review using an electronic design tool.
• Practical skills in board bring-up, fault finding, soldering and PCB rework.
• The ability to explain component choices, circuit calculations and engineering trade-offs clearly.
• Experience working from technical requirements and documenting design and test results.
• A degree in Electronic Engineering or a related subject, or equivalent relevant experience.

Responsabilités

• Develop analogue, digital and mixed-signal circuits for battery monitoring, measurement, control and protection.
• Design hardware incorporating microcontrollers, sensors, power supplies and balancing circuits.
• Producing electronic schematics and providing guidance on PCB layout, including reviewing designs for signal integrity, EMC and manufacturability.
• Building, commissioning and debugging prototype hardware using laboratory test equipment.
• Performing circuit simulation and design analysis to verify performance against requirements.
• Contributing to requirements definition, verification plans, FMEA and technical documentation.
• Supporting hardware development through the V-cycle, working closely with software, systems and mechanical engineers.
• Working with suppliers and manufacturing partners to resolve technical issues and support product delivery.

Description du poste

EVera Recruitment is seeking a Senior Electronics Engineer to take ownership of electronic hardware development, from initial requirements and circuit design through to prototype testing and verification.

Working within a small multidisciplinary team, you will contribute directly to product development and solve practical engineering challenges. This is a hand-on technical position suited to someone who enjoys designing circuits, working with hardware and understanding how their designs perform in the laboratory.

The role

• Developing analogue, digital and mixed-signal circuits for battery monitoring, measurement, control and protection.
• Designing hardware incorporating microcontrollers, sensors, power supplies and balancing circuits.
• Selecting components and evaluating design trade-offs, considering performance, reliability, availability and cost.
• Producing electronic schematics and providing guidance on PCB layout, including reviewing designs for signal integrity, EMC and manufacturability.
• Building, commissioning and debugging prototype hardware using laboratory test equipment.
• Performing circuit simulation and design analysis to verify performance against requirements.
• Contributing to requirements definition, verification plans, FMEA and technical documentation.
• Supporting hardware development through the V-cycle, working closely with software, systems and mechanical engineers.
• Working with suppliers and manufacturing partners to resolve technical issues and support product delivery.

About you

• Experience personally designing and developing electronic circuits through to working hardware.
• Strong knowledge of analogue and digital electronics, including sensing, signal conditioning, filtering, ADC/DAC interfaces and power supplies.
• Experience with microcontroller-based hardware and communication interfaces such as CAN, SPI and I²C.
• Experience in schematic capture and PCB design or layout review using an electronic design tool.
• Practical skills in board bring-up, fault finding, soldering and PCB rework.
• The ability to explain component choices, circuit calculations and engineering trade-offs clearly.
• Experience working from technical requirements and documenting design and test results.
• A degree in Electronic Engineering or a related subject, or equivalent relevant experience.

Experience that would be particularly valuable

• BMS hardware, cell monitoring, current measurement, balancing and battery protection.
• High-voltage measurement, isolation and inrush-current management.
• FMEA, worst-case analysis and hardware functional safety.
• Electronics development within automotive, aerospace, defence, power electronics or instrumentation.

Direct BMS experience would be an advantage. Candidates with strong circuit-level design expertise from other relevant applications are also encouraged to apply.

Why apply?

• Take ownership of hardware designs within a small engineering team.
• Work across the full development lifecycle.
• Apply your electronics expertise to technically demanding battery applications.
• Remain closely involved in practical design, prototyping and testing.
