Principal Hardware Architect & Team Lead
£120,000 - £150,000 + Bonus + Benefits + Relocation Support + Visa Sponsorship
South Coast | Hybrid Working
If you're leading a hardware team in a large organisation, there's a good chance you've become further removed from the engineering than you'd like.
Architecture decisions become committee decisions. Customer interaction sits elsewhere. Product strategy is owned by somebody else.
This opportunity offers something different.
We're looking for a Principal Hardware Architect & Team Lead to help shape the future of advanced communications technology. You'll influence technical direction, work directly with customers, lead a talented engineering team and remain close to the architecture decisions that determine the success of the product.
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.
The Opportunity
- Lead and develop a team delivering complex FPGA and ASIC technology.
- Define technical direction and influence long-term product strategy.
- Own the successful delivery of high-value engineering programmes.
- Work directly with customers, architects and senior stakeholders to turn ideas into products.
What We're Looking For
- A proven track record leading teams delivering complex digital hardware products.
- Strong FPGA and/or ASIC design expertise with system-level architectural experience.
- The ability to balance technical leadership, project delivery and people management.
- An engineer who enjoys developing others whilst remaining close to the technology.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Perhaps you've progressed into management and find yourself spending more time in meetings than engineering.
Or perhaps you're the architect everyone relies upon but have never been given the opportunity to lead a team.
This role sits firmly between the two.
A chance to shape technology strategy, lead exceptional engineers and remain close to the decisions that ultimately determine whether a product succeeds or fails.
