Your Impact

We are looking for a confident Senior Electronic Engineer to join our dynamic R\&D team. In this role, you will support both existing products and the introduction of new products into our contract manufacturing environment.

You will play a key role in analysing and resolving manufacturing issues, ensuring smooth production ramp‑ups and ongoing supply continuity.

• Validation of first “golden samples” from the production line

Specify alternate components for end‑of‑life, cost‑reduction, or compliance needs

Design test fixtures, including schematic design

Conduct supplier process audits, including on‑site visits to ensure adherence to approval standards such as UL294

Identify and implement material or process cost‑reduction opportunities

Work closely with Design Engineers to ensure Design for Manufacture (DFM) and Design for Test (DFT)

Investigate and resolve manufacturing‑related issues reported from the field, including analogue and digital fault‑finding

Support the QA team with customer escalations, including functional and safety issues

Collaborate with the Supply Chain team to minimise risk of product supply interruptions

What You'll Bring

To succeed in this role, you'll need:* Senior Electronic Engineer with minimum 5 years’ post‑graduate experience

Degree (or equivalent qualification) in Electronic Engineering

Proven experience releasing products to manufacturing and supporting production ramp‑ups

Experience conducting First Article Inspections on new manufacturing lines

Strong ability to troubleshoot manufacturing build issues, including test fixtures and production lines

Experience supporting and resolving customer product escalations alongside QA teams

BOM management experience, including identifying and managing alternate and second‑source components

Experience managing ECO releases

Experience sourcing alternatives for obsolete electronic components

Knowledge of environmental and regulatory requirements, including RoHS, REACH, CMRT, TSCA

Familiarity with ISO 9001 (beneficial)

Strong collaboration and communication skills

High attention to detail with excellent organisational and time‑management skills
