Overview of the role
As a result of growing demands for our award-winning range of combustion engines and realizing our goal “constructing our road to zero”, we are seeking an Electronics Engineer. The role will suit an individual looking for an opportunity to develop their career within a fast-paced organization at the cutting edge of engine design and development and alternative fuel technologies working out of our multi-million-pound engine research and development centre in Derbyshire.
What does this role involve day to day?
You will work within the growing electrical systems team as component owner for several sensors/actuators, supporting Global Diesel and alternative fuel ICE platforms (including Hydrogen), from concept to flawless launch, ensuring a robust system/component sign-off meeting all regulatory, quality, cost, and timing requirements.
Engine and After-treatment ECU hardware specification and critique, with system ownership of some powertrain sensors and actuators. Primary contact with project design leads driving cross-functionally their integration and validation.
Supporting the functional testing of electrical, fuel ignition, and electronic components and their validation to JCB EMC, Electrical and Environmental test standards, responsible for relevant work product delivery to new product introduction gateways.
This will be suited to you if
You have a strong engineering background and a Degree/HND in Electronic/Systems Engineering or equivalent, as well as possessing a sound knowledge of vehicle electrical systems architecture and powertrain-based sensors/actuators.
You have knowledge of combustion, high voltage ignition systems, and their testing, as well as a sound grasp of the engine product development cycle, and expertise in engine system and component specification, design, development, and sign-off (using relevant tools).
You have practical skills and experience with the use of electrical test equipment, harness rework, Hil-rig and Dyno test bed software, and CAN/LIN communication tools.
What happens next?
Ordinarily, our resourcing team reviews and shortlists CVs. If shortlisted, you’ll speak to one of our recruiters to discuss the role further. Our interview process usually consists of an initial team’s interview followed by an in-person interview. We’ll keep in touch throughout the process but if you have any questions, please get in touch at recruitment@jcb.com.
What’s in it for you?
This is your chance to join a company that values expertise not only in rewards but also in real employee care. At JCB, you don’t just get a competitive salary, 33 days’ holiday, and access to our company pension—you can also use our onsite gym, in-house doctor, dentist, and visiting optician. We have a ULEV car scheme available for our employees too. Then there’s the JCB Rewards Hub, which gives you discounts with high street retailers. Feel like biking to work? There’s our Cycle to Work Scheme.
We value diversity and welcome applications from candidates from all backgrounds.
