Summary

A hardware-focused engineering role involving the design, integration, and validation of electronic subsystems for high-reliability platforms. The position requires strong PCB design skills, embedded electronics knowledge, and practical laboratory experience.

Highlights

Work on advanced hardware systems with full lifecycle involvement, hands-on electronics design, prototyping, testing, and collaboration in a technically challenging environment with relocation support.

Description

An Australian R&D and manufacturing company developing advanced defence and industrial systems is expanding its team and is now hiring an Electronics Engineer to support the design and validation of onboard electrical systems for deployable platforms. You’ll work on the full electronic design lifecycle, supporting the development of mission critical systems by designing, testing, and integrating key PCB assemblies and embedded electronic subsystems. These platforms are developed for real world defence applications where reliability, size, and performance are critical. This role would suit an engineer who enjoys hands on circuit design and systems level thinking, especially in fast paced, hardware focused environments. This is a full time, Adelaide based role. For interstate candidates, full relocation to Adelaide is required. Relocation allowance will be provided. Key Responsibilities: Design and layout of printed circuit boards (PCBs) for defence platformsSelect components and develop circuits involving power regulation, communications, and sensor integrationEnsure compliance with relevant standards, including EMC/EMICollaborate with embedded software engineers to integrate and test complete systemsSupport prototyping, bring-up, and debugging of new boards and systemsContribute to full system design by understanding how different PCBs interact within the platform Requirements: Experience in PCB design and schematic captureUnderstanding of DC-DC power conversion and embedded electronicsFamiliarity with EMI/EMC principles in board-level designKnowledge of how hardware fits into complete embedded systemsComfortable with lab work: oscilloscopes, soldering, board rework, and validation Desirable but not mandatory: Experience in aerospace, defence, or automotive industriesExposure to ruggedised or safety-critical electronicsUnderstanding of embedded software or firmware fundamentalsFamiliarity with compliance testing and documentation Please reach out to harold@profoundpeople.com.au for more info
