Electronics Engineer
Location: Peterborough
Salary: £45,000 to £50,000 + Bonus
KO2's client is a specialist engineering business in Peterborough that designs and develops complex, rugged machines built to operate reliably in harsh and demanding environments. With a small and focused R&D team, they are now looking for an Electronics Engineer to support the ongoing improvement and maintenance of an established product range.
This role is ideal for an engineer early in their career who enjoys practical, hands-on work, troubleshooting, and getting deeply familiar with existing hardware. You will work closely with an experienced hardware engineer to understand product architecture, investigate issues, and implement hardware-related improvements. The work is varied, workshop-focused, and centres on problem solving rather than designing brand-new PCBs from scratch.
There is also potential to support a new product development programme being run from their Bristol team, depending on workload and your interests.
Role Overview
* Continuous improvement and maintenance of current ruggedised products
* Hands-on troubleshooting, fault investigation and root-cause analysis
* Instrumenting, testing and modifying existing hardware to resolve issues
* Engaging with firmware and software colleagues to support system-level behaviour
* Interacting with Raspberry Pi and STM32-based architectures
* Prototyping, soldering and workshop tasks when needed
* Understanding existing schematics, system layouts and hardware behaviours
Skills and Experience
* Degree in electronics or a closely related discipline, or equivalent experience
* Knowledge of Raspberry Pi and STM32-based hardware platforms
* Comfortable working hands-on with electronics: multimeters, oscilloscopes, soldering and instrumentation
* Able to engage with firmware and software at a basic level (no full coding expected)
* Strong troubleshooting mindset and a practical approach to problem solving
* Suitable for someone with roughly two to four years' experience or a capable junior engineer
* Driving licence required due to site location
Package
* Salary between £45,000 and £50,000 depending on experience
* Exceptional performance-based bonus scheme, typically delivering between one and two months' pay in recent years
* Onsite role with free parking
