Description
This is an exciting opportunity for a Graduate Electronic Design Engineer to join a collaborative engineering team based in Greenwich, working on high-reliability electronic power systems.
The role is ideal for someone early in their career who enjoys understanding how electronics work in real-world systems, from circuit design and PCB layout through to testing and documentation. Previous industry experience is not required. You'll be supported through mentoring, structured learning, and hands-on project exposure.
You'll contribute to the design of power feeding equipment that converts low to medium voltage DC into high-voltage DC systems (up to 21kV), built for safety, reliability, and long service life.
What You'll Be Learning & Doing
Working alongside experienced engineers in Greenwich, you'll gradually build responsibility across the full hardware lifecycle, including:
Designing and analysing electronic circuits (analog and digital)
Supporting schematic capture and PCB layout
Assisting with FPGA development using VHDL and/or Verilog
Testing and validating circuits and PCBs in a lab environment
Writing clear technical documentation and test reports
Collaborating with teams across R&D, production, quality, and supply chain
This role is designed to help you develop confidence, practical engineering skills, and sound technical judgement.
What We're Interested In
Rather than expecting you to know everything already, we're interested in how you think about electronics and how you explain your work.
You might recognise yourself in examples like these:
Circuit Design
You've designed circuits through university projects, internships, or personal work
You can explain why you chose certain components or approaches
You understand basic trade-offs such as performance, safety, and reliability
High Voltage Awareness
You understand the difference between high voltage and high current
You're aware of safety considerations such as insulation, spacing, and controlled testing
You approach higher-energy systems thoughtfully and carefully
PCB Design & Tools
You've used schematic capture or PCB layout tools (e.g. Altium Designer or similar)
You've taken a design from schematic to layout, even at an academic or introductory level
You're interested in how layout choices affect real-world behaviour
FPGA / Embedded Systems
You've had exposure to VHDL or Verilog through coursework or projects
You can describe a basic FPGA or digital logic project you've worked on
You're curious about how hardware and embedded logic work together
Lab & Testing
You've used lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, power supplies, or multimeters
You've taken measurements to verify or troubleshoot a circuit
You're comfortable learning safe lab practices and documenting results
Key Responsibilities (With Support)
Assist with hardware design and development activities xjnqpsq
Support PCB prototyping, testing, and debugging
Contribute to FPGA development tasks
Help select components with guidance from senior engineers
Produce schematics, test information, and technical documentation
Learn and follow structured hardware design processes
Work collaboratively with engineers across different teams
What You'll Bring
A degree (or close to completing one) in Electrical or Electronic Engineering
A solid understanding of core electronics principles
Curiosity, willingness to learn, and attention to detail
A collaborative approach and clear communication style
An interest in designing reliable, high-quality hardware
Why This Role?
A genuine graduate-level engineering role based in Greenwich
Mentoring and technical development from experienced engineers
Hands-on exposure to power electronics, FPGA, and lab testing
A supportive, inclusive team environment that values learning
