Open (typically £65-75ph ltd) Outside of IR35 An experienced contract electronics design engineer is needed to support a start-up involved with the research, development, and design of optics/photonic technologies. Their technologies radically improve network speed and energy efficiency. This contract electronics design engineer project involves: Designing and developing custom low noise, small footprint step-up power converters and analogue circuitry. Delivering robust, high-performance hardware designs that meet stringent signal integrity and power efficiency requirements. Required Experience: Experience with the design of low noise, small footprint power electronic devices (the product requires several internal power converters (6V) driven by one external power supply (3.3V) with varying currents up to 4-5A). Full analogue/power electronics design capability (design, simulation, board design and bring up, supplier engagement, assembly, integration & test). Good schematic capture and ideally PCB layout skills (tools such as OrCAD, Altium, etc. would be desirable). The ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, evolving start-up organization. Beneficial Knowledge: Experience of developing DAC/ADC peripherals utilizing QSPI, DSPI, and SPI interfaces. Knowledge of high-speed network interface and optical transceiver systems. You will need a strong analogue/power electronics product development background. Experience with high-speed network interface or optical transceiver design would be a plus. Key Project Experience Required: Experience with the design of low noise, small footprint power electronic devices (the product requires several internal power converters (6V) driven by one external power supply (3.3V) with varying currents up to 4-5A). Full hardware design capability (design, simulation, board design and bring up, supplier engagement, assembly, integration & test). The electronics design engineer role is based on site in Paignton, Devon, 5 days per week.
