Senior Electronic Hardware Engineer
Location
Wirksworth/Chesterfield UK
Reporting to
IoT Manager

Role Overview
We are seeking a Senior Electronic Hardware Engineer to lead the design and development of robust electronic hardware solutions used in critical industrial and infrastructure environments. The role focuses on PCB design, embedded electronics, microcontroller-based systems, and RF/antenna integration, with a strong preference for experience in ATEX / hazardous-area certified products.
You will play a key role across the full product lifecycle—from requirements capture and schematic design through PCB layout, prototype bring-up, compliance, and transition into manufacture—working closely with firmware, mechanical, test, and product teams.

Key Responsibilities
Hardware Design & Development

Lead the design and development of analogue, digital, and mixed-signal PCBs
Produce schematics, PCB layouts, BoMs, and manufacturing documentation
Design low-power, ruggedised electronics suitable for long-life industrial deployment
Develop microcontroller-based designs (e.g. STM32, NXP, Microchip, Nordic, etc.)
Support hardware bring-up, debugging, and root-cause analysis

RF & Antennas

Design and integrate RF circuits and antennas (e.g. cellular, NB‑IoT, LTE‑M, sub‑GHz, ISM bands)
Support antenna selection, matching, tuning, and validation
Work with enclosure / mechanical teams to ensure RF performance in real-world installations

Compliance & Certification

Design hardware to meet ATEX / IECEx requirements (where applicable)
Ensure compliance with UKCA / CE (EMC, LVD, RED)
Support testing with external test houses and internal validation teams
Contribute to technical files, risk assessments, and compliance documentation

Lifecycle & Manufacturing Support

Support DFM, DFA, and DFMEA activities
Work with manufacturing partners on prototype builds and production ramp-up
Support component selection with an eye on availability, obsolescence, and lifecycle risk
Provide technical support to quality, test, and field teams as required

Technical Leadership

Act as a technical authority for electronic hardware within the team
Mentor and review work of junior engineers
Contribute to design reviews (DDR / gates) and engineering governance processes
Drive continuous improvement in tools, design practices, and standards

Essential Skills & Experience

Degree (or equivalent experience) in Electronic Engineering
Significant experience in electronic hardware design for commercial or industrial products
Strong expertise in PCB schematic capture and layout (Altium, OrCAD, KiCad, etc.)
Proven experience designing microcontroller-based systems
Solid understanding of analogue electronics, power regulation, and signal integrity
Experience integrating antennas and RF subsystems
Hands-on experience with hardware debugging (oscilloscope, logic analyser, spectrum analyser)
Experience working in regulated or safety-critical environments

Desirable / Advantageous

ATEX / IECEx design experience (or strong exposure to hazardous-area products)
Experience with low-power IoT devices
Familiarity with EMC mitigation techniques
Experience supporting cellular certification (RED, PTCRB, GCF, carrier approvals)
Understanding of functional safety concepts
Previous experience in water, energy, oil & gas, rail, or industrial automation sectors

Personal Attributes

Structured, detail-oriented, and safety-conscious
Comfortable taking technical ownership of complex designs
Strong collaborator across hardware, firmware, mechanical, and test disciplines
Able to balance innovation with robustness and long-term supportability

What We Offer

Opportunity to work on mission-critical products used in essential infrastructure
Exposure to end-to-end product development, from concept to deployed systems
Supportive engineering culture with strong technical standards
Competitive salary and benefits package
Flexible working arrangements (role dependent
