Job Description
Electronics Design & Development Engineer
Location: Wotton under Edge
Salary: Up to £45,000 depending on experience
Renishaw’s Machine Tool Products leads the market in delivering innovative, high accuracy measurement solutions to CNC machining processes around the world. Our patented touch trigger probe technology was first employed to measure intricate components for Concorde engines; today (and many iterations later) our products are the benchmark in high precision engineering for manufacturing hundreds of everyday items like mobile phones and laptops through to car and aircraft parts. There’s a good chance our probes were involved in the production of the device you are reading this on.
We are currently recruiting for an electronics design engineer to assist with maintaining and developing our established Machine Tool Current Product line. An in-depth knowledge of electronics is an essential requirement along with an understanding of the demands of a current product environment.
Responsibilities
- Develop the electronics for current products, through continuous improvement upgrades and/or obsolescence.
- Be reactive and responsive to production and customer issues.
- Work on multiple projects simultaneously and allocate time appropriately to meet delivery deadlines.
- Collaborate with manufacturing, quality assurance, and subsidiaries to propose and validate electronics hardware changes to improve reliability, manufacturability, and cost.
- Maintain product compliance with EMC, safety, and environmental standards.
- Liaise with vendors to resolve component issues and qualify replacements.
- Produce clear technical reports, test procedures, and change records.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
