A great opportunity has opened up for an experienced Hardware Design Engineer to join a tight-knit and well-established engineering team based in St Austell, Cornwall. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a hands-on lab environment, enjoys working across varied projects, and has a real passion for design—not just a job, but something they genuinely love doing.
The company has been around for decades and maintains a strong reputation for stability and low staff turnover. The culture is practical, collaborative, and refreshingly down-to-earth. Engineers are trusted to get the job done with minimal red tape, and once project goals are met, there's freedom to experiment, develop new ideas, and take ownership of innovation.
This role focuses on the design and development of robust embedded hardware systems, including control systems for real-world applications ranging from IoT-connected heat pump tech to MOD-related fire control and engine management systems. The successful candidate will play a key part in shaping next-gen electronics, from prototyping through to testing and production handover, collaborating with colleagues both in the UK and internationally.
The right person will have at least 3 years’ commercial experience in hardware design, be comfortable working with C for hardware-level development, and be driven by a genuine enthusiasm for electronics. It's a practical role—definitely not academic—and suits someone who wants to grow into a senior engineer, perhaps even lead a lab in time
