Salary: £45,000 – £53,000 (DOE) + mileage + TOIL
Hours: 08:30–17:00 Mon–Thu, 08:30–14:30 Fri
Syntech is working with a small specialist automated test equipment (ATE) company in Sandhurst (team of 4–5 on site) who design, build and support bespoke electronic test systems. They need a self‑motivated Electronics Software Engineer to become a key part of the team and take on growing responsibility for applications work and major customers.
The role
* Develop and maintain test software using our in‑house test executive
* Write and debug instrument drivers and test sequences
* Work on ATE / functional test systems: setup, fault‑finding, integration
* Support test, verification and calibration activities
* Visit customer sites for installation, commissioning and support (UK, Ireland, occasional overseas)
* Gradually take ownership of specific systems and customers as our senior engineer moves towards retirement
Skills & experience
We’re looking for a good all‑rounder, biased towards software but strong enough on electronics to understand the hardware under test.
Essential:
Experience writing software for test or control in at least one of:
* VB / VBA / Visual Basic / C++ / C / LabVIEW or similar
* Understanding of electronics / hardware / test & measurement
* Experience with automated / functional / production test setups, or very similar
* Comfortable working with calibration and basic test procedures
* Able to work independently and pick up new projects with limited hand‑holding
Desirable:
* Exposure to Python or interest in learning it (for interfacing with our systems)
* Previous experience as a Test Software Engineer, Electronics Software Engineer, ATE Engineer or Applications Engineer
We’re open to candidates without direct ATE experience if you have solid electronics knowledge, strong test software experience and the right attitude to learn.
Travel & working pattern
* Based on‑site in Sandhurst (5 days/week), with some remote work possible once established
* Trips to customer sites in Ireland (typically in week‑long blocks, returning in between)
* Occasional short trips overseas (normally no more than a week at a time)
* Extra hours while travelling / on‑site are compensated with time off in lieu
* Mileage paid when using your own vehicle; car allowance/leased vehicle may be considered if field work grows
