Baltic Recruitment · Wallsend · £51,000 – £53,000 pa

Lead the maintenance function at a specialist manufacturer of high-purity fused quartz and silica components, owning the PPM programme and reactive maintenance across production equipment, plant and utilities. Manage and develop a maintenance team and contractors, using MaintainX to track work orders, asset histories and reliability metrics. Drive continuous improvement through root cause analysis, Lean/TPM and budget control, with out-of-hours on-call support for critical failures.

Cambridge GaN Devices · Cambridge

Design GaN power ICs and Si gate drivers using EDA tools, covering schematic capture, RTL, analog/digital and mixed-signal simulation, synthesis, STA, PNR and AMS verification. Also develops test solutions, analyses wafer-level and packaged device data, documents designs, debugs ICs and generates IP for patent applications within a growing R&D engineering team.

Cambridge GaN Devices · Cambridge

Senior leadership role owning the packaging function for GaN power semiconductors, combining people leadership with hands-on design of wirebond, flip chip and embedded packages. Involves multiphysics simulation, supplier development, qualification testing and roadmap input, working with internal teams and overseas partners from the Cambridge office.

Forefront RF · Cambridge

Hands-on technical lead for RF subsystem design, simulation and validation, covering circuits such as LNAs, PAs, filters and duplexers. Owns performance, quality and delivery against system architecture, runs design reviews and verification (S-parameters, NF, phase noise, EVM, ACPR), and mentors RF engineers while working with the System Architect and manufacturing teams.

Renesas Electronics · Edinburgh

Provide technical leadership for a global engineering compute and design-data-management environment, combining hands-on CAD work with infrastructure ownership. You will own Perforce Helix and IPLM methodologies, build Python and shell automation, and guide migration from legacy data platforms. The role spans Linux compute environments, EDA tool configuration, documentation and training across distributed semiconductor teams.

Renesas Electronics · Swindon

Provide technical leadership for a global engineering compute and design-data-management environment, combining hands-on CAD work with Perforce Helix and IPLM-based data management. You will develop Linux-based engineering environments, Python and shell automation, project/workspace methodologies, and migration paths from legacy platforms, while supporting EDA tool integration and training engineering teams.

Lumai · Oxford

Owns dense, high-layer-count PCB layout from schematic handoff to fabrication release, covering stackups, HDI structures, controlled-impedance routing, differential pairs and BGA breakout for large FPGAs and custom ASICs. Acts as the main technical contact with fabricators and assembly houses, and sets the footprint libraries, design rules and CAD standards the wider team works to.

Lumai · Oxford

Own a Python-based performance and power modelling framework predicting how photonic AI hardware runs real inference workloads, giving architecture and compiler teams a shared source of truth for latency, throughput and power. Model compute engines, interconnect, memory and bridge interfaces, validate against RTL or emulation, and run benchmarks such as UL Procyon, Geekbench AI and LLMs.

Analog Devices · Edinburgh

Hands-on principal-level role owning the design and development of signal processing and machine learning algorithms for power system monitoring, asset health and grid analytics. Work spans the full pipeline from modelling and simulation to deployment across edge-to-cloud and embedded platforms, collaborating with hardware, firmware and data teams and engaging utilities and grid equipment OEMs. Includes mentoring engineers with a pathway to broader technical leadership.
