Electronics Hardware Design Engineer

What you'll do

• Develop schematics and multi-layer PCB layouts using Altium Designer.
• Perform component selection, circuit simulation, and design verification.
• Design power distribution, signal conditioning, and sensor interface circuits.
• Analyze signal integrity, power integrity, and EMC/EMI performance.
• Support board bring-up¹, debugging, validation, and root cause analysis.
• Collaborate closely with FPGA, embedded software, and mechanical engineering teams.
• Prepare design documentation, test procedures, and manufacturing documentation.
• Participate in design reviews and ensure compliance with  MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-810, and other applicable industry standards.
• Support prototype builds, qualification testing, and production transfer activities.

Who You Are

• Approximately 5+ years of professional experience in digital, mixed-signal, and analog hardware design for aerospace, defence, or other highly regulated industries.
• Experienced hardware design engineer with a track record of delivering deployed PCB-based electronics in aerospace, defense, or other highly regulated sectors.
• Skilled across digital, mixed-signal, and analog circuit design, with hands-on Altium Designer experience from schematic capture through multi-layer layout.
• Strong grasp of signal integrity, power integrity, and EMC/EMI principles, able to resolve competing physical constraints (space, thermal, cost, manufacturability).
• Comfortable owning designs end-to-end: simulation, verification, prototype bring-up, debugging, and root cause analysis.
• Collaborative across disciplines - works closely with FPGA, embedded software, and mechanical engineering teams.
• Rigorous and detail-oriented, with an instinct for reliability and compliance in mission-critical systems.
• Motivated by hands-on delivery of flight- or mission-critical hardware over theoretical work.

What We Offer

A mission driven environment with the opportunity to work on one of Europe’s most consequential defence challenges, with direct impact on sovereign capability and security.
Daily collaboration with top experts across engineering, operations, and defence, with real opportunity to learn from the best, contribute, and grow.
High ownership and autonomy; no time tracking, no micromanagement, just clear objectives and accountability for outcomes.
A fast paced environment where good ideas are implemented quickly, and feedback from test and flight drives real decisions.
A culture that values clarity, integrity, and excellence, and supports people who take initiative and push boundaries responsibly.
Competitive compensation and real share options aligned to responsibility and impact, not tenure or hierarchy.
