Join a highly advanced engineering and technology centre working at the forefront of industrial automation and robotics. This is a hands-on Electrical Design role, offering full lifecycle involvement – from concept through to testing and validation – across a variety of complex electro-mechanical systems.
We’re looking for an Electrical Design Engineer who can take true design ownership.

If you’re someone who thrives on autonomy and technical responsibility, this is the ideal environment to grow and shine.

• Lead the design and development of robust, production-ready electrical systems
• Take full ownership of tasks such as wiring up drive motors, integrating brake controllers, and delivering functional systems from schematics
• Create and maintain detailed design documentation (schematics, test plans, BoMs)
• Collaborate closely with mechanical, software, and test teams for integrated development
• Support in fault diagnosis, testing and system validation
• Optimise designs for manufacture by engaging with internal procurement, production, and quality teams
• Mentor junior team members and contribute to technical reviews
