Senior Electronics Engineer

We are partnering with an innovative space technology company developing next-generation Earth observation satellites capable of detecting and responding to critical changes anywhere on Earth with unprecedented speed and accuracy. Their capabilities support mission-critical applications across defence, maritime, intelligence, and security sectors.

They are seeking a Senior Electronics Engineer to lead the design and delivery of high-reliability mixed-signal electronics for satellite platforms. This is a hands-on technical leadership role, with ownership of critical hardware systems and influence over long-term engineering direction and best practices.

Responsibilities:

• Lead the design, development, validation, and qualification of mixed-signal electronics for space applications
• Own hardware systems end-to-end, from concept through testing, manufacturing, and in-orbit performance
• Drive system architecture decisions to ensure scalability, reliability, and mission success
• Coordinate cross-functional development activities across engineering disciplines
• Establish and promote engineering best practices in hardware design, testing, and documentation
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues across the lifecycle, including development, production, and on-orbit anomalies
• Use data and industry insights to inform design decisions and improve system performance
• Mentor engineers and contribute to building a high-performing hardware team

Essential Skills & Experience:

• 10+ years’ experience in electronics engineering, ideally in aerospace, embedded, or other mission-critical environments
• Strong background in board-level design, including schematics, PCB layout, bring-up, and validation
• Experience leading complex, cross-functional projects with system-level impact
• Proven ability to solve complex technical problems using advanced design and measurement techniques
• Expertise in lab testing and system-level validation, with confident use of standard test equipment
• Strong skills in debugging and root-cause analysis at board and system level
• Ability to balance technical performance with cost, manufacturability, and schedule
• Clear communicator, able to work effectively across teams and stakeholders

Desirable Skills:

• Degree in Electrical Engineering or related field (BSc/MSc/PhD)
• Experience in the aerospace or space industry
• Familiarity with radiation effects, thermal constraints, and in-orbit operations
• Experience with Python or scripting in Linux environments

We welcome applications from international candidates and are able to provide visa sponsorship for highly qualified individuals.
