ProductEngineerFelixstowe | HybridUp to £60k + benefitsAre you an engineer who cares about how products actually behave in the real world, not just how they look on a schematic?
This is a hands-on product-focused hardware engineering role within an established electronics manufacturing business working across regulated and safety-critical sectors including clean tech, medical, aerospace and defence.
The focus is on taking electronic products from defined concepts through validation, certification and into reliable, repeatable production.
This is not a research role — it's about making designs work, scale and ship.You'll work closely with manufacturing, quality, suppliers and customers to ensure hardware is robust, compliant and production-ready.
One day you may be refining a PCB to improve manufacturability or test coverage, the next you'll be supporting EMC testing, resolving production issues or validating a product at system level.
If you enjoy practical problem-solving, ownership and seeing products succeed beyond the prototype stage, this role will suit you well.ResponsibilitiesOwning electronic products from design freeze through production and ongoing supportDesigning and refining PCB-level hardware with a strong focus on DFM, DFT and reliabilityHands-on build, test, fault-finding and production validationSupporting EMC, safety and regulatory compliance activitiesWorking directly with manufacturing teams, suppliers and subcontractorsImproving test strategies, fixtures and in-house production capabilityProducing clear technical documentation, build packs and compliance evidenceMentoring and supporting junior engineers as the team growsQualificationsDegree (or equivalent experience) in Electronic / Hardware EngineeringStrong experience supporting products into manufacture, not just early designSolid PCB design skills with an understanding of production constraintsExperience working with regulated or safety-critical products (EMC, CE, FCC, medical, etc.)Comfortable troubleshooting issues at board, system and production levelClear communicator who documents decisions and takes ownershipThis is a role for someone who thrives in a practical, delivery-driven engineering environment.
Priorities can shift, problems are rarely textbook, and engineers are expected to roll up their sleeves and get involved.
In return, you'll have genuine ownership, influence over how products are built, and the satisfaction of seeing your work deployed in real-world applications.Keen to express your interest, or find out more?
