Senior Electronic Design Engineer
We are partnering with a leading Irish manufacturer of life safety and connected home products to hire a Senior Electronic Design Engineer for their Shannon-based R&D team.
This is a hands-on senior role focused on the design and delivery of next-generation electronic products, from early concept through to high-volume manufacturing.
The Role
You will take technical ownership of board-level electronic designs, working closely with firmware, software, validation, and manufacturing teams. You'll be involved across the full product lifecycle, with real visibility of products being built and scaled on-site.
Key Responsibilities
-
Define hardware architectures and deliver board-level electronic designs
-
Lead hardware development from concept → schematic → PCB → bring-up → validation
-
Design low-power analogue and mixed-signal circuits, including power management and battery systems
-
Develop microcontroller-based embedded hardware platforms
-
Integrate wireless technologies (e.g. Bluetooth, WiFi, Zigbee, Z-Wave)
-
Apply EMC / ESD / EMI mitigation techniques to meet global compliance standards
-
Support product certification, testing, and manufacturing ramp-up
-
Ensure designs meet DFM / DFT and cost targets
-
Produce clear technical documentation and participate in design reviews
-
Mentor and technically support less experienced engineers where required
What We're Looking For
-
Degree in Electronic Engineering (or related discipline)
-
Strong industry experience in electronic hardware design
-
Proven board-level schematic and PCB design experience
-
Experience with low-power, battery-operated products
-
Solid understanding of analogue, digital, and mixed-signal design
-
Hands-on experience with MCUs and communication interfaces (I²C, SPI, UART, USB)
-
Comfortable debugging hardware in lab and manufacturing environments
Nice to Have
-
Experience with wireless / RF-enabled products
-
Background in consumer electronics, IoT, or regulated products
-
Exposure to high-volume manufacturing environments
