ABOUT THE ROLE:

This role involves a diverse range of design, development, and testing tasks for a talented, flexible, and passionate engineer with experience in electronics, and electrical design plus development leading to manufacture. This person must embrace the challenge of producing outstanding results on his/her own while guiding and mentoring more junior engineers.
As Senior Electronics Engineer you would be involved in all aspects of vehicle development, from design through to production. You may also have responsibility for managing electrical/electronic equipment suppliers for the development of the UAV platform.

WHAT YOU’LL BEING DOING:

· Design, build and test systems utilising both AC and DC circuits for unmanned aerial systems
· Design of test procedures to ensure systems meet the current standards
· Investigate ideas, suggestions and problems related to existing and new products raised by internal departments including Marketing and Production, communicating, and responding to ensure issues are resolved promptly and appropriately.
· Identify opportunities for improving existing products and processes.
· Help in setting the standard for engineering practices and serving as an expert in the field.
· Liaise with other engineers to resolve production and design issues
· Mange personal workload and identifying any further resource need
