Electronics Hardware Engineer (Graduate-Mid level)
Salary: £30,000 - £55,000 per annum
Benefits: Monthly paid bonus (circa £3-4k per year), pension, 25 days holiday and more
Location: Aylesbury area
Electronics Hardware Engineer Overview
This is a great opportunity for a graduate, entry-level, junior or mid level electronics hardware engineer with a focus on hardware development, to join a growing medical technology company based in Buckinghamshire. The business have a total of around 300 employees within the group, however this role is working directly with the novel R&D projects side of the business, which is much smaller, with around 25 employees. This will give the safety of a larger group, but with the day to day feel of a smaller, progressive, and technically challenging business.
The electronics hardware engineer will be working on highly complex projects, specifically a novel surgical robotics system. You will need to have a strong educational background, ideally a 1st class degree from a top UK university.
You will collaborate very closely with computer scientists and mechanical engineers and will be responsible for the design and development of hardware, analouge, digital and RF. Also you need develop embedded code to run on the hardware. Full training will be given but you must have a strong foundation of learning within electronics engineering. They are willing to take someone who is looking for their first role out of the university through to someone with a few years experience. If someone has substantially more experience then they would also look at a lead role attracting a much larger salary.
Electronics Hardware Engineer Requirements

  • 1st class degree from a top UK university in electronics
  • Experience in C and python
  • Analouge and digital design and development
  • Knowledge of embedded development
  • Experience working on both prototypes and production
  • A passionate engineer with great communication skills

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Robotics Job Applications (UK Guide)

Robotics is one of the most dynamic, interdisciplinary fields in technology — blending mechanical systems, embedded software, controls, perception (AI/vision), modelling, simulation and systems integration. Hiring managers in this space are highly selective because robotics teams need people who can solve real-world problems under constraints, work across disciplines, and deliver safe, reliable systems. And here’s the reality: hiring managers do not read every word of your CV. Like in many tech domains, they scan quickly — often forming a judgement in the first 10–20 seconds. In robotics, those first signals are especially important because the work is complex and there’s a wide range of candidate backgrounds. This guide unpacks exactly what hiring managers look for first in robotics applications and how to optimise your CV, portfolio and cover letter so you stand out in the UK market.

The Skills Gap in Robotics Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Robotics is no longer confined to science fiction or isolated research labs. Today, robots perform critical tasks across manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, agriculture, defence, hospitality and even education. In the UK, businesses are embracing automation to improve productivity, reduce costs and tackle labour shortages. Yet despite strong interest and a growing number of university programmes in robotics, many employers report a persistent problem: graduates are not job-ready for real-world robotics roles. This is not a question of intelligence or dedication. It is a widening skills gap between what universities teach and what employers actually need in robotics jobs. In this article, we’ll explore that gap in depth — what universities do well, where their programmes often fall short, why the disconnect exists, what employers really want, and how you can bridge the divide to build a thriving career in robotics.

Robotics Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Robotics looks futuristic from the outside. People picture humanoid machines, cutting-edge labs & young engineers writing complex code. In the UK job market, the reality is more practical and more encouraging for career switchers: robotics is already embedded across manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, agriculture, defence, construction & inspection. That means there are real jobs for people in their 30s, 40s & 50s who bring operational experience, delivery skills, quality discipline & the ability to work with real-world systems. This article gives you a clear UK reality check on robotics careers for career switchers: what roles genuinely exist, which paths are most realistic, what skills employers actually hire for, how long retraining tends to take & whether age is a factor.
