Experienced Electronics Design Engineer
Location: Littlehampton, West Sussex
Salary: £40,000 – £45,000 DOE + annual bonus
Design. Develop. Innovate.
Are you an experienced Electronics Design Engineer looking for more ownership, more variety, and the chance to see your designs become real products?
We’re looking for a Senior Electronics Design Engineer to join a growing, multi-disciplinary engineering team working on exciting projects across sectors including MedTech, life sciences, industrial technology, instrumentation, consumer electronics, rail, and aerospace.
This is a genuinely hands-on role where you’ll have the opportunity to take products from initial concept through design, prototyping, testing, and into manufacture.
The Role
You’ll be a key technical contributor, working across a variety of challenging projects and collaborating with engineers from electronics, software, mechanical design, manufacturing, and compliance.
You’ll have the freedom to make technical decisions, take ownership of projects, and act as a technical lead — while remaining close to the engineering and design work.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Design and develop electronic circuits, systems, and products.
- Create schematics and multi-layer PCB designs.
- Define product architectures and develop technical solutions from customer requirements.
- Make key decisions around components, system architecture, interfaces, power, and communications.
- Take designs from concept → prototype → debugging → testing → manufacture.
- Troubleshoot complex electronic and system-level problems.
- Support design verification and validation through analysis and practical testing.
- Ensure designs meet relevant EMC, safety, regulatory, and technical requirements.
- Produce clear, accurate technical documentation and design review material.
- Take technical ownership of projects or major workstreams.
- Work directly with customers through technical meetings, design reviews, and problem-solving discussions.
- Collaborate with software, mechanical, manufacturing, and compliance teams.
- Manage your own workload across multiple projects while delivering to agreed timescales and quality standards.
- Provide technical guidance and mentoring to less experienced engineers.
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

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.
What We’re Looking For
You’ll ideally have:
- 4+ years’ commercial experience in electronics design and development.
- A degree or equivalent qualification in Electronics Engineering or a related discipline.
- Proven experience taking electronics from concept through to working prototype and/or production.
- Strong knowledge of electronic circuit design and product architecture.
- Experience designing digital systems using microcontrollers, processors, and digital communications.
- Experience with schematic capture and multi-layer PCB design using Altium Designer, KiCad, or similar.
- Strong debugging, fault-finding, and problem-solving skills.
- The ability to translate system requirements into practical engineering solutions.
- Strong technical documentation and design review skills.
- The confidence to work independently, take ownership, and make sound engineering decisions.
