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

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.

How to Write a Robotics Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Robotics is moving rapidly from research labs into real-world deployment. Across the UK, robots are now used in manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, defence, agriculture, autonomous vehicles and service industries. As adoption accelerates, demand for skilled robotics professionals continues to grow. Yet many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Robotics job adverts often receive either very few applications or large numbers of unsuitable ones. Experienced robotics engineers, meanwhile, routinely skip adverts that feel vague, unrealistic or disconnected from how robotics systems actually work in practice. In most cases, the problem is not the talent pool — it is the job advert itself. Robotics professionals are systems thinkers. They care deeply about constraints, integration and real-world performance. A poorly written job ad signals weak technical understanding and unrealistic expectations. A well-written one signals credibility, seriousness and a mature robotics programme. This guide explains how to write a robotics job ad that attracts the right people, improves applicant quality and positions your organisation as a credible employer in the robotics sector.
