Due to a growth in company output, there is a need for a new Programme Manager who has an Electronics Engineering pedigree.
Based in Cambridge, you will be leading several projects.
Some projects will involve you offering support and mentorship to junior members of staff, while other projects will involve you taking on the Electronics design aspects yourself.
We are looking for someone who has been working hands on developing new Medical Devices technologies in their current role, while mentoring other members of staff.
Most projects will be on electro-mechanical Medical Devices, so you will need to have worked on these types of technologies.
They could be implantable medical devices, wearable tech or another medical technology that abide by EN60601 standards.
Alongside past work experience, it is expected that you hold a relevant degree within a suitable subject that led you into a Medical Devices Electronics Engineering role.
It would also be advantageous if you hold a master's or PhD, but not essential as the active work experience in industry is more important.
The types of technologies you will be developing are lifesaving and life improving medical devices, truly industry disrupting technologies that will save and improve thousands of people's lives.
This role will involve working with external and internal entities, involving a lot of communications both virtual and in real life, due to this it would be advantageous if you have worked in a role that involved communicating updates and project changes continuously.
I mentioned knowing about EN60601, but it would also be essential to have a strong understanding of ISO 13485.
People who have been successful in this role previously tend to have a highly technical hobby, this could be building drones, tinkering with engines, computer programming or another hobby that involves problem solving.
If you do have such a hobby, make sure you highlight it on your CV to give you the best chance of gaining an interview.
Apart from working on industry changing technologies, you will be offered a proven career development plan, continuous training to keep you at the forefront of the medical devices sector, excellent salary, bonus, enhanced pension, medical insurance, free meals and other excellent benefits you'd expect from a multinational blue-chip organisation.
I expect a lot of interest in this role, so apply now or ensure consideration.
For more information, please contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and Drug Discovery Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240.
Alternatively, submit your application and a member of our team will be in touch.
Please note that without a CV, we can only provide limited information. ....Read more...

FPGA Electronics Engineer - Defence - Cambridge
I'm supporting a defence company in Cambridge that works on some of the most challenging engineering problems facing UK defence and national security.
They're looking for an FPGA specialist who enjoys getting into the detail, building solutions from first principles and turning complex ideas into working systems that make a real‑world difference.
You'd be joining a team where engineers, scientists and designers collaborate closely, moving quickly from concept to prototype.
The work is varied, hands‑on and genuinely meaningful, with projects focused on countering emerging technological and cyber threats.
It's the kind of environment where curiosity is encouraged, technical depth is valued and people take pride in solving problems that matter.
The role spans the full development cycle, from requirements capture through to design, implementation, verification and delivery.
You'll be working with modern FPGA toolchains and contributing to projects that often involve DSP, modelling, embedded systems or advanced communications technologies.
Strong experience with VHDL or Verilog is essential, and any exposure to areas such as MATLAB/Simulink, electronics, embedded C/C++, SDRs, radar or communications systems would be a real advantage.
They're open to engineers at different career stages, provided you bring solid fundamentals and a genuine interest in this type of work.
Prior defence experience helps but isn't essential.
The organisation offers a well‑resourced, supportive environment with excellent facilities and a culture that invests in people.
Relocation support is available where appropriate.
Due to the nature of the projects, you'll need to be eligible for UK Security Clearance, and the role isn't open to visa sponsorship.
Interest in this role is expected to be high, so early applications are encouraged.
To discuss the position in more detail, you can contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and DeepTech Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240.
You can also submit your CV and a member of the team will be in touch to talk through next steps. ....Read more...

Electronics Engineer - Security Clearence - Cambridge
An opportunity has opened for an Electronics Engineer to join a specialist technology group based on a modern science park just outside Cambridge.
The work centres on developing advanced electronic systems that contribute directly to the UK's safety and resilience.
Everything here is focused on defensive innovation, and the pace of growth means you'd be stepping into an environment with strong momentum and long‑term investment behind it.
In this role, you'll be involved in projects that move rapidly from early ideas to working prototypes.
You'll work alongside engineers, scientists and designers from a range of backgrounds, shaping concepts, testing approaches and turning complex requirements into practical solutions.
The work covers the full development cycle, from initial system understanding through to design, documentation, hands‑on testing and final delivery.
It's varied, technically stretching and ideal for someone who enjoys solving real‑world engineering challenges.
The team is made up of people who are naturally curious and enjoy pushing the boundaries of what's possible.
Whether you're leading a project or contributing as part of a wider group, you'll be in an environment that encourages collaboration, knowledge‑sharing and continuous development.
It's a place where you can build a long‑term career in high‑end R&D.
You'll bring a strong academic background and experience developing complex electronic systems.
You should be comfortable working across hardware design, schematic capture, PCB layout, board bring‑up and testing, with exposure to areas such as embedded development, FPGA work, DSP, signal processing, high‑speed or RF design, or communications protocols.
The exact mix is flexible — what matters most is sound engineering judgement and the ability to contribute effectively within multidisciplinary teams.
The organisation offers a supportive culture, a well‑equipped campus environment and a comprehensive benefits package.
Relocation support is available where needed, and there's an active social side to the business, from sports groups to creative activities.
Given the nature of the work, existing security clearance is ideal, though the ability to obtain clearance is essential.
Interest in this role is expected to be high, so early applications are encouraged.
To discuss the position in more detail, you can contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and DeepTech Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240.
You can also submit your CV and a member of the team will be in touch to talk through next steps. ....Read more...
