£40-60k + share options + benefits

Multiple positions exist for ambitious and talented electronics design engineers to join a start-up involved with the research, development and design of optics / photonic technologies.

Their technologies are being developed to radically improve network speed and energy efficiency for AI, ML and HPC processing applications.

Typical involvements: Electronics Design Engineer

There are multiple needs hence engineers with experience of some / all the following would be of interest -

  • Analogue, digital or mixed signal board and interface design (design, simulation, board design and bring up, supplier engagement, assembly, integration & test)

  • Schematic capture and ideally PCB layout skills (tools such as OrCAD, Altium, etc)

  • Power electronics design - Experience with the design of low noise, small footprint power electronic devices

  • High speed digital PCB and FPGA design (Verilog, VHDL or SystemVerilog)

  • Development of DAC/ADC peripherals utilising QSPI, DSPI, and SPI interfaces.

  • The ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, evolving, start-up organisation

    As an electronics design engineer you will be involved with designing and developing new hardware for the company’s ongoing product development.

    There is a preference for people that have worked on highspeed network hardware products for data centres, high-performance computing (HPC), data storage, server hardware, and telecom infrastructure or similar (e.g. InfiniBand products, optical transceivers, Network interface cards (NICs), Routers (highspeed backbone and edge routers), Switches (highspeed ethernet and InfiniBand.)

    Skills / Experience required: Electronics Design Engineer

  • A degree or masters in a relevant subject area (e.g. electronics engineering)

  • 2-5 years of industry experience (post-academia) involving full lifecycle electronics circuit design

  • Analogue, digital or mixed signal board and interface design (design, simulation, board design and bring up, supplier engagement, assembly, integration & test)

  • Schematic capture and ideally PCB layout skills (tools such as OrCAD, Altium, etc)

  • Development of DAC/ADC peripherals utilising QSPI, DSPI, and SPI interfaces.

  • The ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, evolving, start-up organisation

  • Excellent communication, organisation and motivational skills

    More: Beneficial

  • Power electronics design - Experience with the design of low noise, small footprint power electronic devices

  • High speed digital PCB and FPGA design (Verilog, VHDL or SystemVerilog)

  • Knowledge of highspeed network interface or optical transceiver systems

    The electronics design engineer role is based on site in Paignton, Devon 5 days per week. Relocation assistance and working visas may be possible for the right candidate
