KO2 are experts in what we do and pride ourselves on building long-term relationships with our clients and candidates in order to provide a high standard of experience. Not only this, but we have worked in the electronics embedded system engineering industry long enough that we fully understand and appreciate the nature of the work our clients do and the skills needed by their workforce to succeed.
As one of the UK’s leading electronics recruitment agencies for embedded systems devices, we consider many aspects when sourcing new candidates for our clients. This includes the technical skills of the individual, the previous industry experience, what design tasks they are used to working on, and whether they would be suitable for the size of the company, whether this is a start-up business or a global blue-chip organisation.
The typical electronics clients we work with require engineers to have some of the following experience: analogue, high-speed digital, mixed-signal design, ASIC, FPGA, PCB design/PCB layout, RF, EMC or SMPSU/power supply design. We understand how to identify candidates with experience in these kinds of design, ensuring that everyone’s expectations are met and the right people are matched with the right roles.
Aside from having the relevant electronics skills, we ensure we source electronic engineers who are well suited to the project tasks their role involves. Typical work might include electronics design, PCB design jobs, embedded systems jobs, validation, verification, EMC testing, certification, or compliance/regulation checks.
No matter your background, we can help to place candidates in roles that suit their skills or find opportunities to facilitate career progression. We have placed electronics engineers into a wide variety of sectors, including automotive, aerospace, consumer, IoT, smart metering and wearables.
According to data from Indeed, the average annual salary for an electronics engineer in the UK is £40,774. This value is more common with engineers that have been working in the industry for a while, with lower starting salaries expected for graduate and junior electronic engineers.
Some of the top cities in the Uk for tech jobs like that of an electronic engineer are Cambridge, Reading, London, Manchester, Edinburgh, Bristol, Birmingham, and Leeds. This is according to a study by Computer World, which analysed available jobs, the number of tech companies and startups, and the salaries on offer to candidates.
As long as there is a demand for electronic products, there will be a demand for electronic engineers. Looking at the state of the industry at the moment, there is plenty of innovation on the horizon for electronic technology, so if you’re an electronic engineer then many companies will be looking to hire people with your skill set.
The best field for an electronics engineer really depends on where your personal interests and your skills lie. Working in these sectors will give you the most satisfaction if you have a particular interest in a certain kind of electronic product or design, such as embedded system design or wearable devices. However, if you want to work in an industry that you feel aligns with your personal values, such as healthcare or energy, these fields are the best choice.
