Electronics Design Engineer - Medical Devices FPGA - Cambridge

An exciting and growing Medical Devices organization based in Cambridge is currently seeking an experienced Electronics Design Engineer to work on the development of life-saving and life-improving Medical Devices.

With a primary focus on FPGA design, you will collaborate with other electronics engineers, mechanical engineers, software engineers, physicists, and scientists in the development of these Medical Devices.

In addition to FPGA Design, you will also engage in hands-on prototype development, using soldering to construct the electronics you have designed.

You will be working with highly complex technologies, ensuring that your work remains challenging every day.

Ideally, you would have prior experience in electronics design for Medical Devices. However, we are open to candidates from other highly regulated sectors, as long as your expertise lies in FPGA electronics design.

It is expected that you hold a degree in electronics engineering. Nevertheless, if you have transitioned into an Electronics Design Engineering role through an alternative path, we would still like to hear from you, as industry experience holds significant importance.

Your dedication will be rewarded with an excellent starting salary, opportunities for career development, job security, bonuses, a pension plan, life assurance, and other outstanding benefits.

Given the anticipated high level of interest in this role, if you are seeking a new opportunity, we recommend submitting your application promptly to avoid missing out.

For more information, please do not hesitate to contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices Recruitment, and Scientific Recruitment Specialist at Newton Colmore, at (phone number removed). Alternatively, you can submit an application, and a member of our team at Newton Colmore will get in touch with you.

Newton Colmore Consulting is a specialized recruitment company operating within the Medical Devices, Scientific Engineering, Scientific Software, Robotics, Science, Electronics Design, New Product Design, Human Factors, Regulatory Affairs, Quality Assurance, and Field Service Engineering sectors

Neurodiversity in Robotics Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Robotics is where software, hardware & the physical world collide. From warehouse automation & surgical robots to drones, cobots & autonomous vehicles, robots must sense, think & act reliably in messy real environments. To build that kind of technology, you need people who think differently. If you live with ADHD, autism or dyslexia, you may have been told your brain is “too distracted”, “too literal” or “too chaotic” for engineering. In reality, many traits that made school or traditional offices hard are exactly what robotics teams need: intense focus on complex systems, pattern-spotting in sensor data, creative problem-solving when hardware misbehaves. This guide is written for neurodivergent job seekers exploring robotics careers in the UK. We’ll cover: What neurodiversity means in a robotics context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to key robotics roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about your neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in robotics – & how to turn “different thinking” into a professional superpower.

Robotics Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the UK robotics jobs market is in a strange but interesting place. On one hand, UK manufacturers, logistics firms and warehouses must automate to stay competitive, tackle labour shortages and meet productivity and net-zero targets. On the other hand, the UK still lags badly behind peers in robot adoption, with relatively low robot density in factories compared with other advanced economies – which is both a challenge and a massive opportunity. The National Robotarium +1 Add in AI, computer vision and edge computing, and you get a robotics landscape that is: More selective in hiring. More focused on real operational outcomes. More integrated with software, data and safety standards. Whether you are a robotics job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter building automation and robotics teams, this guide explores the key robotics hiring trends for 2026.

Robotics Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK robotics hiring has shifted from toolbox checklists to capability‑driven evaluation that emphasises deployed systems, safety, reliability and total cost of ownership. Employers want proof you can ship and sustain robots in production—industrial arms & cobots, AMRs/AGVs, field robots, surgical/med‑tech, warehouse automation, inspection & maintenance. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews and how to prepare—especially for robotics software engineers (ROS/ROS 2), perception/vision engineers, controls & motion planners, mechatronics & embedded, safety & compliance, test/V&V, DevOps/SRE for fleets, and robotics product managers. Who this is for: Robotics software/perception/controls engineers, mechatronics & embedded, simulation & test, DevOps/SRE for robotics fleets, HRI/UX, safety/compliance, field/commissioning engineers, and product/technical programme managers in the UK.
