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.
Now, we’re looking for a Principal Electronics Engineer (analgoue) to help architect and design the next generation of high-performance analytical instrumentation.
The Opportunity
You’ll play a key role in developing sophisticated electronics that sit at the heart of our electron microscopy solutions—where precision, signal integrity, and low-noise design are mission-critical.
- Working in a multidisciplinary R&D team, you’ll design, test, and deliver advanced electronics systems that directly impact how our customers visualise and analyse the microscopic world.
- You will also be instrumental in developing the skills and competencies within the electronics team, helping to mentor more junior engineers to fulfil their potential.
What You’ll Do
- Take ownership of electronics design solutions across new product development projects
- Design analogue, digital, and low-noise circuitry supporting precision detectors and acquisition systems
- Develop and validate designs through simulation, prototyping, and rigorous testing
- Write embedded code and contribute to FPGA development (VHDL) for high-speed data handling
- Collaborate closely with physicists, software engineers, and system architects
- Provide “go to” expertise on electronics issues for the wider technology team
- Mentor colleagues to develop their skills in using electronics tools and methodologies
- Support transfer to manufacturing and ensure robust, maintainable documentation
