As an Embedded Electronics Engineer, you’ll contribute to the design, development and verification of embedded electronic hardware for our satellite missions, with a focus on On-Board Data Handling (OBDH) systems. This is a delivery-focused role, working on real flight hardware from early design through to testing and integration.

What You'll Be Doing

• Contributing to schematic capture and PCB design for embedded, mixed-signal electronics
• Supporting component selection and design trade-offs under senior guidance
• Assisting in the development of OBDH subsystems and embedded interfaces
• Supporting development and verification testing of embedded hardware
• Assisting with fault finding, root-cause analysis and corrective actions on engineering and flight models
• Using lab equipment for signal analysis and debugging (e.g. logic analysers, oscilloscopes)
• Working closely with Flight Software to support embedded hardware/software integration
• Collaborating with Power Electronics engineers on system-level considerations
• Contributing to design reviews, test readiness reviews and lessons learned
• Producing and maintaining design, test and verification documentation

What You’ll Bring

• Solid grounding in electronics engineering principles with a focus on embedded systems
• Knowledge of MCU-based systems, embedded interfaces and basic FPGA interaction concepts
• Familiarity with schematic capture and PCB design tools
• Understanding of embedded boot concepts, interfaces and basic high-speed signals
• Ability to undertake electronics testing and debugging

This role will be based in Harwell, UK
