Applications Engineer - Graduate Electronic Engineers Considered

A brilliant opportunity for a bright and inquisitive Applications Engineer or Electronics graduate to join a leading technology company developing specialist hardware and software solutions for the electronics industry. You’ll work on a continual variety of short, technically challenging projects, getting to grips with electronic designs created by other engineers and determining how best to test and program them. This is an ideal role for someone who genuinely enjoys electronics, investigating unfamiliar technology and solving complex engineering problems. Full training will be provided, so curiosity, technical aptitude and a demonstrable interest in electronics are more important than arriving with highly specialised knowledge.
