Electronics Design Engineer

Posted 4 days ago University of Cambridge Electronics Design Engineer Compressed Work Week Remote · UK The 4-day week in United Kingdom About the role The Cavendish Laboratory is the place of pioneering physics, that's been at the forefront of scientific discovery for 150 years, and will continue to be, because we never sit still. The Cavendish Laboratory has made several important discoveries, including: the discovery of the electron (1897), the neutron (1932), the structure of DNA (1953); thirty Cavendish researchers have won Nobel Prizes. We're trailblazers who continue to extend the frontiers of physics. The Department has moved into our new state-of-the-art, multi-million pound Ray Dolby Centre which will be the centrepiece of the new Cavendish Laboratory. This is an exciting and challenging time for the Department, and we would like to find a highly motivated individual with a positive attitude towards change and development to join us. A reorganisation and merger of several professional services teams within the Department of Physics has led to the creation of Cavendish Engineering - one of the largest, most advanced multidisciplinary university workshops within the UK. We are looking for someone with a solid background in electronics design. The successful candidate must be able to demonstrate from first principles a deep understanding of electronic engineering at both discrete and system level. If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. This is a highly technical position, and our interview process is strictly technical to evaluate your excellent electronic engineering skills. Please note, should you be successful, candidates will be invited to attend a short informal call online on either Friday 4th December or Monday 7th December. Candidates who progress beyond this initial discussion will be invited to attend a technical in-person interview and will be expected to travel at their own expense. We encourage early applications as they will be reviewed on a rolling basis. The vacancy may close before the advertised deadline if a sufficient number of suitable applications are received.
