Electronic Test Engineer - Space Electronics

We’re looking for an experienced Electronic Test Engineer to join our growing engineering team, focused on developing and validating next-generation electronic systems for space.

In this role, you’ll play a key part in testing and verifying complex PCB assemblies, semiconductor devices, and embedded hardware components, ensuring optimal performance and reliability from prototype through to production.

This is a hands-on position that requires a strong foundation in electronics, proficiency in software tools and instrumentation, and a detail-oriented approach to problem-solving and data analysis.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and execute test plans and procedures for PCBs, semiconductors, and electronic components
  
  
• Perform component- and board-level diagnostics using oscilloscopes, logic analysers, and other lab equipment
  
  
• Write test scripts and control instrumentation using VISA API and C++
  
  
• Analyse test data, identify trends, and provide detailed reports with recommendations
  
  
• Collaborate with hardware, software, and design teams to resolve technical issues and improve test coverage
  
  
• Perform precision soldering and rework on SMT and through-hole boards as required
  
  Experience:
  
  
• Degree in Electronic Engineering or related discipline
  
  
• Proven experience in PCB design and testing, including schematics and layout understanding
  
  
• Good working knowledge of semiconductor testing, failure analysis, and device behaviour
  
  
• Strong experience with instrument control and automation using VISA API and C++
  
  
• Ability to analyse large sets of data and present findings clearly and concisely
  
  
• Skilled in hands-on lab work, including fine-pitch soldering and board rework
  
  
• Familiarity with electronic test tools (e.g., multimeters, oscilloscopes, signal generators, spectrum analysers)
  
  
• Exposure to EMC testing and compliance requirements
  
  
• Knowledge of FPGA or microcontroller-based systems
  
  
• Join a collaborative team where your input directly contributes to product success
  
  ​In return for your expertise and commitment, you’ll will be part of a friendly supportive team and have opportunities to develop your career further.
