We’re looking for a Senior System Verification Engineer to join a client of ours, a fast-growing medical technology business who are growing their quality engineering team in Cambridge.
This is a hands-on role at the sharp end of a complex electromechanical product. You’ll take system and sub-system requirements and turn them into robust verification strategies, covering test protocols, bespoke rigs and automated scripts, then see them through to formal sign-off. You’ll have real influence over how the product is proven, with your results feeding straight back to the design teams and into regulatory submissions. You’ll also lead/mentor a small group of verification engineers, helping shape how they work and develop. It’s a varied role where you’ll be expected to pitch in wherever the team needs you, which also has a clear progression pathway ready for you to leverage.
What You’ll Bring
- Solid experience planning, running and reviewing structured test campaigns on complex systems, from requirements through to reported results
- A systems level view, with expertise in at least one of electronics, mechanical or software engineering
- Confidence turning system, user and risk-driven requirements into clear, traceable test protocols, and judging how design changes ripple through existing coverage
- Practical know-how building or specifying test environments, whether software, hardware or a blend of the two
- Basic scripting ability, ideally Python, to automate testing and make the process leaner
- Time spent in a regulated engineering environment, with an appreciation of how documentation needs to stand up to external scrutiny
- A track record of leading small technical groups, including line management responsibilities such as recruitment and appraisals, and/or project management experience
- Strong electromechanical grounding, backed by a degree in engineering, physics or a similar technical discipline
- Meticulous attention to detail, sharp problem-solving instincts and the communication skills to explain findings to varied audiences
If you want to work on technology that genuinely makes a difference, while building and leading a verification function on a product changing people's lives, this could be the role for you.
