Yolk Recruitment is managing a new opportunity for an Electronics Design Manager to join a growing advanced technology business with a strong record of developing, manufacturing and launching complex electronic products into global markets. This is a future-proof business, the creator of a technology that defines a sector and that continues to invest in advancing their competitive lead, in new product development, manufacturing capability and future technologies.
This is a leadership role for someone who can get the best out of an experienced electronics and embedded firmware team, keep projects moving, improve how work is planned and delivered, and still support technical decision making when problems need support to resolve. You'll be leading teams of electronics and embedded firmware engineers, supporting new product development, existing product improvement, regulatory readiness and transfer into manufacture, in an environment that welcomes new ideas.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is what you'll be doing as Electronics Design Manager
- Take responsibility for the day-to-day leadership and development of a mixed electronics and embedded firmware team, giving engineers the structure, support and challenge needed to deliver high-quality work.
- Lead, coach and develop, driving project delivery across NPD, NPI, sustaining engineering, obsolescence and cost reduction activity.
- Help engineers work through technical problems by asking the right questions and organising a clear route to resolution, not expected to simply take on the problems yourself.
- Work closely with internal teams across development, manufacturing, quality, regulatory, compliance and project delivery, while also supporting supplier and contract manufacturer communication.
The experience you'll bring to the team
- A background in electronics, hardware, embedded systems, firmware or a closely related discipline.
- Experience leading, managing or mentoring engineers in product development and electronics, hardware, embedded software or firmware.
- The role would suit someone who has worked in a regulated, safety-critical or highly controlled product development environment, although the most important thing is an understanding of why process, documentation, traceability and controlled delivery matter.
