Outside IR35 Hardware Engineering opportunity with a Kent based client working on a next generation medical device (no prior medical experience is required). The position will involve bridging the gap between the engineering design team and the production department. The primary role is to enable a smooth transition of new designs from the engineering team to production.
Responsibilities include:
1. Testing and diagnosing high-speed video electronic systems, sub-assemblies, and circuit boards.
2. Designing and implementing test jigs and other circuitry to enable testing of assemblies when they arrive from the manufacturer.
3. Creating test specifications, operator instructions, and reports.
4. Identifying corrective actions and liaising with the contract manufacturers to improve the incoming defect rate.
5. Specifying and introducing new test equipment as required.
6. Working with design engineers to test and troubleshoot prototypes and products, assisting in new design and development.
7. Specifying and designing fixtures to help reduce test time and ultimately the incoming failure rate.
The essence of the job is multidisciplinary and will involve electronic design, PCB layout (the client uses Altium Designer), and scope to complete mechanical design, possibly using Fusion360 with the option of contributing to user-level programming.
Other beneficial skills include:
1. C and Python programming – this can be for a simple embedded processor on a test fixture or programming third-party modules. Knowledge of Qt or other frameworks would be useful.
2. Circuit assembly and rework – we currently use components down to 0201 size.
3. Good DFM – no, or hardly any, rejects from incoming assemblies resulting from good feedback and relationships with the CMs.
4. Proper instructions for assembly of the company’s products such that the production team can easily carry them out.
5. Slick test procedures that can be easily carried out by trained operators.
Please apply with an up-to-date CV if this could be of interest - the client has availability to interview W/C 17/02 for an ASAP start.
