Role Overview
You enjoy engineering work where you can get hands-on, investigate what’s gone wrong, and take responsibility for getting something working properly again. You’ve built a solid technical foundation and now you want more ownership than simply running the same tests over and over.
As a Probe Lab Engineer, you’ll be responsible for the repair, testing, and documentation of ultrasound probes, using a methodical approach to diagnose faults and make sure every unit meets the required standard. It’s a practical role that suits someone who likes solving problems, working carefully, and seeing a clear result from their work.
If you’re inquisitive, reliable, and self-motivated, this is a chance to build deeper technical expertise in diagnostics while taking real responsibility for the quality of the work you deliver.
Who’s it for and what’s in it for you?
Our client is a specialist healthcare technology business supporting hospitals, clinics, and healthcare providers with diagnostic imaging equipment. They provide independent servicing, repairs, maintenance, rental, and equipment sales, helping healthcare teams reduce downtime, improve efficiency, and maintain high standards of patient care.
Combining technical expertise with innovative digital tools, this is a forward-thinking business operating in a sector where the work has real impact.
