Job Description

Electronic Engineer - Sensor Technology
 South Cumbria
 £45,000 - £52,000

KO2 is working exclusively with a well-established design and manufacturing business based in South Cumbria, developing innovative sensor technology used to monitor noise and sound in remote environments as part of the wider IoT sector.

Due to continued growth, KO2's client is looking for an Electronic Engineer to join their design team. This is a hands-on hardware role, developing new and existing electronic designs from initial concept through to prototyping and commissioning. Embedded software is a real bonus here, but it is not a dealbreaker. If your background is strongly electronics and hardware and you are keen to build up your embedded C/C++ skills in a commercial setting, this role gives you the platform to do exactly that alongside experienced engineers.

What you'll be doing:

Working closely with the wider design team to develop electronic circuitry and embedded systems for cutting-edge sensor products
Designing and testing electrical schematics and PCBs, building prototypes and diagnosing issues on new and existing designs
Getting involved in embedded systems work as your skills and interest develop
Supporting other departments, suppliers and customers with technical documentation
Occasionally taking part in customer support, training and demonstrationsWhat you'll need:

A relevant qualification and hands-on experience in electronics engineering
Solid theoretical knowledge of analogue circuitry, amplifiers, signal conditioning, analogue-to-digital conversion, digital logic and power supplies
Proficiency with industry-standard PCB design software such as Altium Designer
A genuine interest in electronics and hardware first and foremost. Prior exposure to embedded microprocessors (PIC, AVR, ARM) and firmware in C or C++ is a strong advantage but not essential
A creative, analytical approach with strong attention to detail and problem-solving ability
Good communication and time-management skills, and the ability to work well as part of a close-knit team
Comfortable using standard office software such as Microsoft 365/OfficeNice to have:

Familiarity with communication protocols such as RS232/485, SPI, I2C, Ethernet and USB
Awareness of high-speed digital design principles and devices such as FPGAs, memories and clock buffers
Experience designing for reduced EMI and compliance requirementsOn offer:

A salary in the range of £45,000 to £52,000, reflecting experience
Private medical cover
Pension scheme provided through the workplace
Cycle to Work scheme available
33 days holiday per year once bank holidays are included
A great environment and location to work inIf you are an electronics engineer looking for a role where hardware comes first, with the chance to grow into embedded software over time, get in touch with KO2 for a confidential conversation
