Electronics Design Engineer Jobs

• Andover
• On-site
• Mid-level

Hands-on role in a semiconductor device test house, developing practical test methods and fixtures for ESD, latch-up and transmission-line-pulse characterisation. You'll design power supplies, interface circuits and PCBs, build automated test routines, capture measurements and produce clear reports, working closely with technical specialists who provide structured coaching.
