Neutra are proudly supporting a small but long-established business run from rural locations in Towcester. It was originally a distributor of sensor products but 10 years ago moved into manufacture too. It sells to a variety of markets in volume with a variety of measurands, but this role is focused on low volume automotive/aerospace/process sensors - specifically rotary and linear position sensing (including at speed measuring). All products are assembled by hand to IPC standards

What you will do:

A PCB will typically be the size of a 5p and encapsulated into the sensor.

You will work in a team of 8 people to

* Design from scratch electronic circuits and schematics typically low voltage eg 5V in 12v up to 36v output. Analogue and digital circuits, ASICS but no uPs

* Design low volume PCBs (through hole) for small circuits with emphasis on EMC considerations and size

* Develop and test circuits for functionality and DVP.

What you will need

* HND, degree in electrical/electronic engineering

* Have worked on low volume, harsh environment circuit design - any industry will be considered

* Have done PCB design on a proprietary CAD package eg Mentorgraphics or similar

* Be able to design simple circuits (analogue and digital)

* Have worked on circuit development - prototyping, circuit test (so ability to use scopes and meters is essential)

* Be willing to work in a small team and be a key player within

What you will get:

* Benefits package including EAP, half day finish on Fridays and variable start time during week

* Glorious rural location in an accessible market town.

* Be responsible for your own design and own work - i.e. subject matter expert
