Electronics Design Engineer
Location: Berkshire (On-site)
Employment Type: Full-time Contract
Are you an Electronics Engineer who thrives on solving complex technical challenges and developing highly specialised products? This is an exciting opportunity to join an engineering team working on advanced illuminated control panels, display systems and integrated cockpit technologies used across aerospace, defence and industrial markets.
You'll be involved in designing and developing a wide range of aircraft‑fit equipment, including:
- LED‑based illuminated panels
- Electroluminescent lighting systems
- Hidden‑until‑lit technologies
- NVIS‑compatible panels
- Miniature filament lamp assemblies
- Integrated switch panels, annunciators, bezels and keyboards
If you enjoy hands‑on engineering, full lifecycle product development and contributing to meaningful innovation, this role offers the perfect environment to grow and make an impact.
Key Responsibilities
- Formalise and produce effective design solutions to meet customer requirements
- Deliver full lifecycle product development from design through to manufacture
- Manage project plans, track progress and ensure delivery on time and within budget
- Work with external test houses to qualify products to customer specifications
- Produce technical documentation including test procedures, calculations, datasheets, installation instructions and technical reports
- Participate in design reviews, including Critical Design Reviews (CDR)
- Provide technical support to Production and resolve issues in manufacturing processes
- Support Sales with technical assistance and product selection
- Maintain awareness of relevant engineering standards (IPC, MIL, DEF) and contribute to internal engineering standards
About You
You're someone who enjoys working across multiple projects, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams and taking ownership of technical challenges. You bring strong analytical thinking, creativity in problem‑solving and a passion for delivering high‑quality engineering solutions.
A Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) check will be required prior to starting.
Why This Role Stands Out
This Berkshire‑based role offers the chance to work on niche, high‑value products with real‑world impact. You'll join a collaborative engineering environment where precision, creativity and innovation come together. The products you help design will be used globally in demanding, safety‑critical applications - giving you the opportunity to see your work make a meaningful difference.
