4 Roles
• Electronic Engineer: Supporting the electronic Safety Depth Sensor PCB/PEC (SDSP) within the Electronics Sub System for Torpedo Development.
• Electronic Engineer: Providing sonar design and analogue engineering expertise for Recovery and Instrumentation (R&I) Sub System Design within Torpedo Development.
• Electronic Engineer: Supporting design proving and test activities for the Recovery and Instrumentation (R&I) Sub System within Torpedo Development.
• Electronic Engineer: Working on Torpedo Afterbody Sub System Design, supporting Return to Manufacture activities for propulsion, control, and navigation elements.
This is a technical role relating to the Electronic aspects of hardware design & test.
The Role Holder will :-
• Develop and/or support electronic design solutions for both new products and technology insertions into legacy products.
• Produce and/or support detailed designs from concept to completion and addressing a range of engineering challenges.
• Participating in all aspects of board and unit level design and test activities, including interfaces with higher level assemblies.
Typical duties include (but are not limited to):
• Detailed electronic circuit design including component selection, evaluation, simulation, schematic capture, and liaising with PCB design teams.
• Specification of bespoke procured hardware.
• Design verification using a combination of simulation, analysis, and test techniques, including support to EMC test houses and customer installations.
• Generate design documentation and technical reports.
• Interfacing with related disciplines.
• Assist the development of higher level system designs.
• Assist the development of technical requirement specifications
• Support system integration activities.
• Work with embedded software and PLD engineers as necessary
• Contribute to progress, peer, and design reviews.
