This new role for a Lead Test Engineer is offering predominatly a remote working package. The company's labs are based in Newmarket, Suffolk, so you should be happy to commute there occasionally or attend meetings in the Cambridgeshire area.

Leading the design and development of products, the person we are hoping to find will have experience developing digital, analogue and RF test solutions, but is perhaps now looking for more responsibility and ownership.

This will include the design of electronic circuits and writing test software to attain full test automation. You'll also be responsible for maintenance, support and development of all production test procedures and equipment on site and even abroad.
What We're Looking For:
- Degree (or equivalent experience) in Electronic/Software Engineering
- Proven track record in an RF, analogue and digital test development environment
- Design and application experience of production test equipment, test methods and practices
- Familiarity with electromechanical production processes
- Experience developing automated tests and the complete test development life cycle of products
- Experience of in-house test support for development and factory support in remote locations, e.g. Asia
- Working knowledge of Python, Delphi, Labview or similar
- Working knowledge of Linux, Jenkins, Git, build systems, compiler tools and revision control, Docker, rpm etc.
