I am recruiting for my client, a well-established business specialising in critical communication systems and infrastructure throughout the UK. They are now seeking an Electronics Repair Engineer to join their engineering team in Scotland. The successful candidate will live in or close to Aberdeen, Dundee, Stirling, Edinburgh, Dunfermline, Perth, Glenrothes, Montrose, Glasgow.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an ex-military engineer with a strong electronics background who has genuine component-level fault finding and repair experience. The role will involve working on specialist RF transmitters and associated communications equipment, diagnosing faults down to component level rather than simply replacing complete boards or units.
The successful candidate will initially undertake training at my client's workshop in Wales, with accommodation and expenses provided. Once fully trained, the role will be predominantly based in Scotland and will combine workshop-based electronics repair with occasional field engineering duties.
