About the Company

Join a fast-growing and innovative technology business working on cutting-edge camera, imaging, and sensor systems for next-generation applications. This is a rare opportunity to contribute to the development of advanced camera and sensing technologies being deployed internationally, including new drone systems currently entering the market.
The company designs and manufactures its own electronic components, giving engineers a true end-to-end view of the product life-cycle. You'll be part of an agile, forward-thinking team where your ideas and expertise can directly shape the direction of the technology.

The Role

As an Electronics Engineer, you'll play a key role in designing, testing, and integrating camera and sensor electronics. You'll work closely with the technical lead to build and refine systems that push the boundaries of imaging technology.
This position offers variety, ownership, and technical challenge, combining both hands-on engineering and opportunities to influence design direction.
Key Responsibilities:

Design, build, and test digital and mixed-signal electronics for advanced camera and sensor systems

Develop and refine PCB designs and support system-level integration

Collaborate with cross-functional teams on electronics, signal processing, and FPGA-based systems

Support prototype builds, testing, and validation of complex electronic assemblies

Provide input into product design, manufacturability, and long-term system improvements

Participate in project meetings, contributing to innovation and continuous improvement

What We're Looking For

Degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or similar

2+ years' experience in electronics design, testing, or integration (3+ years ideal)

Experience with digital and mixed-signal circuit design and FPGA

Knowledge of signal processing and fast microcontrollers.

Experience with camera or imaging systems is desirable but not essential

Proficiency with PCB design tools (experience with Fusion beneficial)

Strong problem-solving mindset with the ability to work independently

Must have the right to work in the UK/Ireland - no visa sponsorship available

Why Join

Work on cutting-edge technologies rarely seen in the UK market

Highly flexible and agile environment with a genuine focus on innovation

Opportunity to take ownership and shape the role as the team grows
Exposure to varied and impactful projects within Defence and Technology
Collaborative, supportive culture where your ideas make a real difference
Flexible on work setup - hybrid or remote, though testing and integration must be done on-site (duration depends on candidate experience)

How Many UAV Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a UAV Job?

If you’re aiming for a role in the Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) industry, it can feel like every job advert expects you to know a never-ending list of tools: flight control systems, autopilot frameworks, simulation platforms, sensor suites, communication stacks, mission planning software, GIS tools — and on it goes. With so many names and acronyms, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and assume you must learn every tool under the sun before you’ll be taken seriously by employers. Here’s the honest truth most UAV hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool — they hire you because you can use the right tools to solve real UAV problems safely, reliably and in context. Tools matter — absolutely — but they always serve a purpose: solving problems, reducing risk, improving performance, or guiding safer operations. So the real question isn’t how many tools you should know — it’s: which tools you should master, in what context, and why. This article breaks down what employers actually expect, which tools are essential, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look credible, confident and job-ready.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in UAV Job Applications (UK Guide)

Whether you’re aiming for roles in UAV design, robotics/controls engineering, autonomy & computer vision, flight test & certification, embedded systems, operations, ground control software, systems integration or regulatory compliance, the way you present yourself in an application can make or break your chances — and that often happens before the hiring manager reads past your first few lines. In the UK UAV/jobs market, recruiters and hiring managers scan applications rapidly. They look for relevant experience, measurable delivery, technical credibility, domain awareness and safety/regulatory understanding — often making a decision within the first 10–20 seconds. This guide breaks down exactly what hiring managers look for first in UAV applications, why those signals matter, and how to structure your CV, portfolio and cover letter so you get noticed — not filtered out.

The Skills Gap in UAV Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) — commonly known as drones — are among the fastest-growing technologies globally. From infrastructure inspection and agriculture to emergency response, surveying, logistics and defence, UAVs are transforming how organisations gather data, deliver services and improve efficiency. In the UK, demand for UAV professionals is increasing rapidly. Yet despite a growing number of graduates with engineering, robotics or aerospace backgrounds, employers continue to report a persistent problem: Many graduates are not ready for real UAV jobs. This is not a reflection of intelligence or academic effort. It is a widening skills gap between what universities teach and what employers actually need in the UAV sector. This article explores that gap in depth — what universities do well, where programmes fall short, why the divide exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the gap to build a successful career in UAVs.
