Thermoteknix Systems Ltd, founded in 1982 and based in Cambridge, is a world leader in thermal imaging, night vision, and augmented reality systems. Our award-winning technologies are trusted by defence, security, and industrial customers in over 70 countries. With in-house R&D, cutting-edge innovation, and a global reputation for quality, we design and manufacture solutions that perform in the toughest environments.

Due to increasing market opportunities and an ever-growing product range, Thermoteknix is expanding its engineering capacity by creating a New Product Introduction (NPI) team within R&D.

About You

As a member of the new NPI team, you will be responsible for leading the software driven automation and test aspects of transitioning products from development into scalable, repeatable manufacturing. You will work closely with R&D, manufacturing, and quality teams, drawing upon your existing software knowledge to implement comprehensive automated testing and validation protocols.

Additionally, you will contribute to the enhancement of existing software to boost production test speed and ensure that products are thoroughly tested and validated.

Key Responsibilities

Support software and test design processes, ensuring DFT principles are applied throughout the product development lifecycle
Support software and test workstreams within NPI projects, ensuring readiness for build and scale, and supporting the transition of products through to customer delivery
Define and implement robust processes for firmware programming, product configuration, calibration data handling and version control in production builds
Define, develop, and document automated test processes during product development for new products and assemblies
Work with mechanical and electronics engineers within the NPI team to design automated electromechanical test systems that optimise production throughput and ensure product quality
Drive improvements in manufacturing readiness by identifying and implementing opportunities to streamline production test and build times
Provide hands-on support during NPI builds, troubleshooting software, automation, and hardware-integrated system issues within the ECN framework
Work with the quality department to support non-conformance investigations and product quality improvements during NPI phases
Contribute to the development of the new NPI team’s standards and processes

Required Skills & Experience

Degree in Software Engineering or related discipline
Experience developing software tools for production test and process automation
Strong experience in C#, using WPF and MVVM methodologies
Understanding of software release processes and configuration control
Ability to troubleshoot software issues communicating with embedded hardware-integrated systems.
Strong documentation skills and attention to detail
Experience creating technical documentation and releasing into a controlled change management system
Ability to work cross-functionally in a fast-paced engineering environment

Desirable Skills & Experience

Experience supporting NPI from prototype through to volume manufacture
Familiarity with embedded firmware programming tools.
Knowledge of manufacturing test systems, calibration workflows, and automation frameworks
Experience with additional programming languages such as LabVIEW, and C/C++
Understanding of engineering change control, ISO9001 environments, and traceability requirements
Exposure to thermal imaging products, or real-time embedded systems
Experience designing jigs, fixtures, tooling, or electronic test equipment

Personal Attributes

Hands-on, proactive, and solution-focused mindset
Strong communication skills with engineering and production stakeholders
Comfortable working across both design and manufacturing environments
Driven to improve processes and deliver manufacturing excellence
Adaptable and motivated to help shape a new team and function
