As a smaller defence company, there is more flexibility in the projects you get to work on.
Collaboration with other teams and external groups mean that you will have the opportunity to develop your skills and continuously learn new things while inventing exciting technologies.
Experience with FPGA Firmware, such as VHDL or Verilog, will be ideal.
If you already work in the Defence sector, this would be advantageous, however, we are more than happy to consider candidates from other sectors.
With the growth of this company, future career development will be available for those who want to advance their career.
As the company are looking for a few people in this team, we are also open to individuals who want to focus on their job while maintaining an interest in new technologies and fields.
It is expected that you would hold a degree in an electronics engineering field that has led you into a career in electronics engineering, with exposure to FPGA exposure.
Due to the varied nature in this role, I anticipate a lot of interest from individuals who want to continue developing their skills while finding the work interesting.
If you are interested in this role, I suggest submitting an application now or avoid missing out.
If you want to work on complex, industry-defining technologies while being offered an excellent starting salary, salary reviews, bonuses, a pension, free lunches, and other outstanding benefits, I recommend submitting an application now or avoid missing out.
