Senior Electronic Engineer

Electronics Engineer 10+ Years Exp
Job Location: Melbourne, Victoria

Our client is hiring a Senior Electronics Engineer to strengthen their core engineering capability as they scale product development. This role suits someone who is deeply technical, structured in how they work, and comfortable owning complex electronics deliverables end to end.

You’ll play a key role in hardware architecture and execution, working alongside software and mechanical engineers to deliver robust, production-ready products.

What You’ll Do

  • Own electronics architecture and detailed hardware design across embedded systems

  • Ensure designs meet requirements around power, signal integrity, EMC, and manufacturability

  • Help improve development rigor, documentation, and delivery discipline across projects

What We’re Looking For

Required:

  • Strong experience in embedded electronics, including power systems, signal integrity, EMC, microcontrollers, and low-level firmware

  • Proven ability to work within structured development models

  • Confidence owning designs, schedules, and technical outcomes for complex hardware projects

  • Clear communicator with a pragmatic, systems-oriented approach to problem-solving

Why This Role Matters

This hire strengthens the company’s ability to deliver high-quality electronics in a disciplined, predictable way as product complexity increases.

If you enjoy working on real hardware, care about fundamentals, and want to build systems that hold up in the real world, this role gives you that platform.

Why Join Them

  • Serious engineering environment – Structured, methodical product development without chaos

  • Real technical ownership – Your decisions directly shape shipped systems

  • Long-term product focus – Build things properly, not just fast

Senior Embedded Engineer (Hardware + Firmware)

Electronics Engineer Firmware Engineer 5-10 Years Exp
Job Location: Adelaide, SA
 
Here’s the deal
 
We’ve built the first product of its kind for live sport already in stadiums, already generating revenue, and scaling fast. Now we need a hands-on engineer who can own the next hardware + firmware release end to end.
 
What you’ll tackle
  • Take charge of the MCU-based design: schematics, layout, bring-up, test.
  • Drive low-level C development, from board support through to production firmware.
  • Work with founders and field teams to turn game-day feedback into rock-solid features without slipping the schedule.
  • Keep the design docs tidy, the risk list honest, and the build pipeline humming.
Must-haves
  • 5–10 + years shipping embedded products that made it to paying customers.
  • Comfort wearing both hats, electronics design and C firmware.
  • A habit of spotting trade-offs early and calling them out in plain English.
  • Happy to follow a formal process when it matters, and to sprint when the clock is ticking.
  • Deadline-driven, “let’s just get it done” mindset.
  • On-site presence (Adelaide) – this hardware doesn’t debug itself over Zoom.
Nice-to-haves
  • You’ve delivered under tight broadcast or live-event timelines.
  • You’re a sports nut who knows the buzz of a packed stadium.
  • You like mentoring juniors and leaving a trail of clear docs behind you.
Why join
  • Structured bonus: ~AUD 5 k each year for meeting the plan.
  • Upside: uncapped discretionary rewards—our last big push saw the team pocket AUD 20 k each.
  • Direct line to the founders, zero corporate layers, and the thrill of seeing your work on screen before the final whistle.
