Electronics Engineer

Electronics Engineer

St Ives, Cornwall

Up to £40,000 DOE

Why This Role

Based in a stunning beachside location near St Ives, our client designs and builds rugged electronics for demanding industrial environments - with a client list that includes household names across Europe and the USA. This is a genuine opportunity to work on real-world products where reliability matters, alongside an experienced engineering team who'll give you a thorough, hands-on handover of the systems already in place.

What You'll Be Doing

• Troubleshooting, maintaining, and quality-controlling existing electronic systems
• Building deep working knowledge of established products through direct handover from an experienced Electronics Engineer
• Working across both digital and analogue systems, with a strong focus on analogue nuance
• Supporting PCB-level and serial communications work as part of day-to-day engineering

What We're Looking For

Technical background:

• Solid grounding in digital and analogue electronics, including Ohm's Law and op-amps
• PCB design and layout experience
• Familiarity with serial communications (I2C, SPI, UART)
• Microchip PIC development experience is a bonus, not essential
• Exposure to closed-loop radio communications (e.g. LoRa) is helpful but not essential

Personal profile:

• A degree in Electronic Engineering
• Hands-on electronics experience - from industry, academic projects, or personal/hobbyist work
• Industry experience, including in a small business setting, would strengthen your application
• Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and a genuine desire to learn
• Able to work on-site full time (note: no relocation budget provided, though candidates have relocated for this role before)
