The work centres on developing advanced electronic systems that contribute directly to the UK's safety and resilience. Everything here is focused on defensive innovation, and the pace of growth means you'd be stepping into an environment with strong momentum and long‑term investment behind it. In this role, you'll be involved in projects that move rapidly from early ideas to working prototypes. You'll work alongside engineers, scientists and designers from a range of backgrounds, shaping concepts, testing approaches and turning complex requirements into practical solutions. The work covers the full development cycle, from initial system understanding through to design, documentation, hands‑on testing and final delivery. It's varied, technically stretching and ideal for someone who enjoys solving real‑world engineering challenges. The team is made up of people who are naturally curious and enjoy pushing the boundaries of what's possible. Whether you're leading a project or contributing as part of a wider group, you'll be in an environment that encourages collaboration, knowledge‑sharing and continuous development. It's a place where you can build a long‑term career in high‑end R&D. You'll bring a strong academic background and experience developing complex electronic systems. You should be comfortable working across hardware design, schematic capture, PCB layout, board bring‑up and testing, with exposure to areas such as embedded development, FPGA work, DSP, signal processing, high‑speed or RF design, or communications protocols. The exact mix is flexible - what matters most is sound engineering judgement and the ability to contribute effectively within multidisciplinary teams. The organisation offers a supportive culture, a well‑equipped campus environment and a comprehensive benefits package. Relocation support is available where needed, and there's an active social side to the business, from sports groups to creative activities. Given the nature of the work, existing security clearance is ideal, though the ability to obtain clearance is essential. Interest in this role is expected to be high, so early applications are encouraged. You can also submit your CV and a member of the team will be in touch to talk through next steps.

Firmware Engineer - Electronics Hardware Integration - Defence - Cambridge We have an important Firmware Engineer role for a growing Defence Sector organisation, aimed at contributing to the development of new technologies that will enhance the defence of the UK and other allied nations, with a focus on defensive technologies rather than offensive. Ideally, we are looking for someone with an electronics engineering background who can leverage their Firmware Engineering experience along with knowledge of electronics hardware integration. It's preferable if you have a proven track record of successfully completing complex projects resulting in launched devices. Some of the project you will be involved in will be focus on the advancing new technologies, pushing boundaries, and doing things that no one has done before. This means you won't get bored in this role and will continue to develop your careers and skills. While prior experience in the Defence sector is ideal, we are open to consider candidates from other complex fields. You will need to hold a degree in a software or electronics field that led you into a Firmware Engineer career. Given the nature of this role in the Defence sector, it will be essential for you to be able to obtain security clearance. In addition to career development and interesting projects, you will also receive an excellent starting salary (dependant on experience level), bonuses, a pension, free lunches, healthcare, on site gym access and other excellent benefits typically associated with larger organisations. Collaboration is the key focus within this company, operating within a flat structure where peers help develop your knowledge as you contribute to theirs, all while working on some of the most fascinating projects you can imagine.
