Job Description Summary
Job Description
Roles & Responsibilities
- Lead PCB and product failure analysis activities across production, test, ensuring issues are diagnosed accurately and resolved effectively down to root cause.
- Perform component-level fault finding on failed PCBs, assemblies, and finished products using structured diagnostic methods.
- Investigate production, test, and field-return failures to identify technical root cause and define robust corrective and preventive actions.
- Support product build and test activities by providing clear failure analysis feedback, containment guidance, and engineering support to production teams.
- Produce clear root cause analysis reports for PCB and product failures, including evidence, conclusions, actions, owners, and completion timescales.
- Apply strong electronic hardware knowledge to diagnose failures within the following areas:
- Digital and microprocessor-based circuits.
- Memories, DSPs, and microcontrollers.
- Analogue.
- Power supply circuits.
- Work closely with Hardware Engineering, R&D, Software, Applications, Quality, Manufacturing, and Production teams to resolve PCB and product failure issues.
- Provide technical expertise to ensure timely resolution of production-related failures on existing product ranges.
- Ensure all investigations follow documented policies, procedures, quality standards, and traceability requirements.
- Analyse failed production PCBs and products to identify repeat issues, trends, and opportunities for design, process, or test improvement.
- Use structured problem-solving techniques to support containment, corrective action, and prevention of recurring failures.
- Apply Lean principles to improve failure analysis turnaround time, investigation quality, and production support effectiveness.
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.
Qualifications
- Degree qualified in a relevant electronics, electrical, manufacturing, or engineering discipline, with 2 years+ relevant experience preferred.
- HND in Electronics with an approved apprenticeship and a minimum of 3 years’ relevant experience.
- Strong practical experience in PCB and product failure analysis, including component-level diagnosis and verification of failure modes.
- Experience using appropriate test, diagnostic, design, and simulation tools to support electronic failure investigations.
- Proven ability to lead failure investigations from initial fault identification through to root cause confirmation and full corrective action implementation within business timescales.
- Detailed knowledge of production test philosophies and the ability to use test data to support PCB and product failure analysis.
- High level of electronic hardware knowledge, with the ability to understand circuit designs, diagnose faults to component level, propose support solutions, and prevent recurrence.
- GE Vernova is not able to sponsor employment visas or provide immigration support for this role. Candidates must possess unrestricted work authorization in the country of employment.
