Senior Electronics Engineer



Devon (Hybrid) | Up to £62,000 DOE | Permanent | Half-day Fridays



The Opportunity



Are you a Senior Electronics Engineer looking for a role where your work genuinely matters? We are working exclusively with a well-established UK defence and maritime technology business - around 500 people - who develop advanced naval protection and undersea surveillance systems deployed by navies across the globe.



Based in Devon with hybrid and flexible working, this is a rare opportunity to take technical ownership of complex electro-mechanical systems in a specialist, mission-driven environment - without the pace and pressure of a large prime contractor.



The South West is one of the best places in the UK to live and work. With easy access to Dartmoor, the Jurassic Coast, and a lower cost of living than London or Bristol, this role is particularly well suited to engineers considering relocation. Exeter is well connected by rail and road and has a growing engineering community.



The Role



You will take ownership of electrical and electronic engineering delivery across a range of electro-mechanical systems, working within a small, specialist multi-disciplinary team. You will be expected to operate at a senior level throughout the full product lifecycle - from requirements capture through to acceptance and beyond.



Day to day you will be:



* Leading electrical and electronic design and development of electro-mechanical systems



* Delivering full lifecycle engineering from requirements decomposition through to acceptance and user sign-off



* Providing technical support and leadership within a multi-disciplinary engineering team



* Mentoring and supporting the development of junior engineers



* Supporting and facilitating design reviews and approvals to business and industry standards



* Contributing to manufacturing drawings, schematics, CAD models and technical reports



* Supporting products through manufacturing, assembly, installation and service life



* Contributing to bids and proposals, including customer and supplier interfacing



What We’re Looking For



* Strong analogue and digital design skills



* Full lifecycle experience from requirements decomposition through to acceptance on multi-disciplinary programmes



* Experience in the design and manufacture of electro-mechanical systems



* Experience of requirements capture, analysis, V&V and configuration management



* Ability to provide technical leadership and mentor junior engineers



* Excellent communication and collaboration skills



The Package



* Up to £62,000 depending on experience



* Hybrid and flexible working arrangements



* Half-day Fridays



* 25 days annual leave plus buy and sell options



* Up to 16 days flexi leave accrual



* Private medical health insurance



* Group Pension Plan - up to 7% employer contribution



* All-staff bonus scheme



* Employee Assistance Programme



* Cycle to work scheme



* Life assurance



* Free onsite parking and onsite facilities
