Electronics Engineer – PCB Design & Analogue

PCB Design | Analogue Front End | Product Development | Hybrid Working

We’re looking for an Electronics Engineer with around 2–3 years’ commercial experience to join a team developing high-performance electronic products for demanding, real-world applications.

The key requirements are strong PCB design experience and in-depth analogue front-end knowledge. If you enjoy getting hands-on with hardware, solving complex engineering problems and seeing your designs progress from concept through to production, this could be a great opportunity.

You’ll work as part of a multidisciplinary engineering team, contributing to the development of robust, high-quality products and gaining exposure to the full product lifecycle.

What you’ll be doing

  • Designing and developing electronic circuits from concept through to production
  • Taking ownership of PCB design and development
  • Working extensively on analogue front-end circuitry
  • Producing schematics and PCB layouts, with experience using tools such as Altium Designer
  • Building and testing prototypes and supporting board bring-up
  • Debugging hardware using laboratory equipment and test tools
  • Supporting verification, validation and product testing
  • Working closely with firmware, mechanical and systems engineers
  • Supporting new product introduction and manufacturing
  • Helping ensure designs meet requirements for reliability, performance and long-term operation

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.
