PCB Hardware Design Engineer – London
We’re looking for a hands-on PCB Hardware Design Engineer to join our team in London, helping develop high-quality electronic products from concept through to production—perfect for an engineer who enjoys practical hardware development and wants broad ownership of schematic design, prototyping, debugging, and production support.
Key Responsibilities
You’ll tackle end-to-end PCB hardware design and development, contributing to:
- Schematic capture and board-level design
- Mixed-signal, digital, and power circuitry
- Prototype bring-up, testing, and debugging
- Component selection and BOM creation
- Design for manufacture (DFM) and production support
- Cross-functional collaboration with firmware, mechanical, and product teams
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.
