Job Description

Electronics Engineer | Birmingham
 £48,000 - £60,000 | Home Based (Office Optional)

Our client is a Birmingham-based innovator whose novel sensing technologies convert real-world physical data into meaningful, actionable intelligence. Their work underpins strategic decision-making for some of the biggest companies in the world, giving them the hard evidence they need to move with confidence. This is a business built on precision engineering and rigorous data, not guesswork.

The Role

They are looking for an Electronics Engineer with embedded software capability to join their R&D team. You'll work across circuit design, PCB layout, and firmware development, helping to build the next generation of sensing instrumentation from the ground up.

Work However Suits You Best

This is a genuinely flexible role. Home working is fully supported, and for most of the team it is essentially work from home, with the office there if and when you want it or need it. The only fixed requirement is a fortnightly R&D team meeting, usually a Friday morning, so you stay connected with the wider engineering group. Outside of that, how and where you work is largely up to you. Part-time applicants and flexible hours will also be considered.

What You'll Be Doing

Collaborating on electrical circuit design and PCB layout, with an eye on minimising manufacturing variance downstream
Developing, debugging, and testing firmware for next-generation digital instrumentation
Diagnosing and resolving hardware and codebase issues, supporting the wider test engineering effort
Taking ownership of features and components within active project workstreams
Maintaining clear technical documentation and working within an agile, sprint-based environmentWhat We're Looking For

A background in electronics engineering with genuine embedded software experience, comfortable working across both hardware and firmware
Confidence with PCB design and schematic capture tools such as Altium or KiCad
Solid understanding of circuit design, PCB layout, and digital signal processing (DSP)
Awareness of design for manufacture, including EMC, RoHS, and WEEE considerations
Firmware or systems programming experience, ideally C and/or Verilog
A methodical, detail-focused approach and the ability to manage your own workload independentlyGood to Have

Experience designing to ATEX (IEC (phone number removed) or environmental testing (IEC (phone number removed) standards
PLC programming experience, particularly Siemens S7
Familiarity with STM32 or Zynq SoCsIf you want the autonomy of a home-based role without losing the option of office collaboration when it matters, this is worth a conversation
