FPGA Electronics Engineer – Defence – Cambridge
I’m supporting a defence company in Cambridge that works on some of the most challenging engineering problems facing UK defence and national security. They’re looking for an FPGA specialist who enjoys getting into the detail, building solutions from first principles and turning complex ideas into working systems that make a real‑world difference.
You’d be joining a team where engineers, scientists and designers collaborate closely, moving quickly from concept to prototype. The work is varied, hands‑on and genuinely meaningful, with projects focused on countering emerging technological and cyber threats. It’s the kind of environment where curiosity is encouraged, technical depth is valued and people take pride in solving problems that matter.
The role spans the full development cycle, from requirements capture through to design, implementation, verification and delivery. You’ll be working with modern FPGA toolchains and contributing to projects that often involve DSP, modelling, embedded systems or advanced communications technologies. Strong experience with VHDL or Verilog is essential, and any exposure to areas such as MATLAB/Simulink, electronics, embedded C/C++, SDRs, radar or communications systems would be a real advantage. They’re open to engineers at different career stages, provided you bring solid fundamentals and a genuine interest in this type of work. Prior defence experience helps but isn’t essential.
The organisation offers a well‑resourced, supportive environment with excellent facilities and a culture that invests in people. Relocation support is available where appropriate. Due to the nature of the projects, you’ll need to be eligible for UK Security Clearance, and the role isn’t open to visa sponsorship.
Interest in this role is expected to be high, so early applications are encouraged.
To discuss the position in more detail, you can contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and DeepTech Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240. You can also submit your CV and a member of the team will be in touch to talk through next steps.....Read more...
Electronics Engineer Consultant – Security Clearance – Cambridge
A new design consultancy, based in Cambridge, are currently looking for a Electronics Engineer Consultant to add to the team of experienced experts, specifically with a focus on security cleared projects.
Although this is a new design consultancy, they have the backing of larger companies meaning you still have the job security of working for a large company. You will also have benefits including pension, share purchase schemes, healthcare, life assurance and other excellent benefits not normally available to smaller organisations.
We are looking for an Electronics Engineer who has ideally worked on MOD, Security Clearance or other sensitive technologies. Due to the nature of consultancy services, your electronics experience could be across a number of fields such as RF Engineering, Microwave Electronics, Analogue Electronics, Sensors Technologies, PCB Electronics or other complex electronics design.
It will also be ideal if you have specific Firmware, Embedded or other software experience.
Due to the nature of work, you must already hold or be able to obtain security clearance.
Apart from the benefits, you will be rewarded with an excellent salary, career opportunities and a continued skills training to keep you at the forefront of technologies.
This is a rare opportunity to be involved with a design consultancy at the ground level, meaning future career development will be more likely than with other consultancies or companies. Due to this, I’m expecting a lot of interest in this role. If you are interested in the role, apply now or risk missing out.
For more information, please feel free to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices recruitment and Scientific recruitment specialists Newton Colmore Consulting, on +44 121 268 2240 or make an application and one of our team at Newton Colmore Consulting will contact you.

Ideally, you will have QMS experience. If you do have this knowledge, I would advise making it clear on your CV as this is highly desirable in this role.
The products this company has been developing are industry-changing and will improve the lives of people around the world.

Collaborating closely with other industry experts, such as electronics design engineers, software engineers, physicists, and other Medical Devices specialists, you will tackle some of the most complex challenges in the development of new Medical Technologies.
Ideally, you will have a background in developing new Medical Devices throughout the entire design life cycle, adhering to ISO 13485 standards.

For the 3D CAD elements of your role, you will primarily use SolidWorks. Familiarity with this tool would be advantageous, but we are open to considering other 3D CAD tools if you have a proven track record of quickly acquiring new skills.
When discussing complex problems, it would be beneficial if the Medical Devices you have worked on have involved fluidics, mechanism design, thermal issues, FEA, or other intricate applications. We do not expect you to have experience in all of these areas; they are just a few examples of the challenges you may encounter.
This company is experiencing growth but remains at a size where your work will significantly impact the company's success and projects. Therefore, we are seeking a team player accustomed to collaborating with diverse individuals both within and outside of the organization.
While continually facing challenges, you will advance your skills at the forefront of the sector.

Salary will be commensurate with experience, and we welcome applications from candidates with a few years of industry experience to those with over twenty years of experience. Finding the right fit is more important to us than a specific number of years of experience.
It is expected that you hold a degree in addition to any industry experience. If you also possess a PhD, it would be welcomed but is not essential.
Interviews will be conducted as soon as a suitable candidate is identified. If you are interested in exploring this role, we recommend submitting your application and CV. Please note that your CV will not be forwarded to the company until after we have discussed the role and the company in detail.

PhD‑Level Ultrasound Technology Consultant – Cambridge
A prominent medical technology innovator in Cambridge is seeking a PhD‑level ultrasound specialist to help drive the development of next‑generation surgical and interventional devices. The organisation has a long-standing reputation for transforming complex scientific challenges into commercially successful products and works extensively across healthcare, life sciences and the wider physical sciences.
You would be joining a culture that values curiosity, open collaboration and entrepreneurial thinking. It is an environment where scientific creativity is encouraged, ideas are shared freely and individuals are given the space to shape projects and influence technical direction.
This position is ideal for someone who wants to play a central role in advancing surgical technology. The work spans the development of sophisticated medical systems, including robotic surgical platforms and intelligent instruments with integrated sensing, all designed to support clinicians in delivering safer and more effective procedures. You will take responsibility for high‑impact technical programmes, combining scientific depth with commercial awareness, and you will apply your ultrasound expertise across the full innovation pathway, from early feasibility studies through to preparing products for market.
A key part of the role involves working closely with partner organisations to define technical strategy, strengthen long‑term relationships and deliver meaningful outcomes. As you progress, you will have opportunities to build your profile within the surgical technology community and contribute to shaping future industry direction. Each project offers the chance to broaden your scientific knowledge, develop leadership capability and see your work translate into real clinical benefit. Candidates previously placed with this organisation have consistently advanced their careers and expanded their responsibilities.
You will thrive in this role if you enjoy working within multidisciplinary teams and value an environment where rigorous thinking and open discussion are central to the way problems are solved. A strong foundation in ultrasound is essential, gained through a PhD, postdoctoral research or relevant industrial experience. The organisation welcomes applications from recent PhD graduates as well as individuals with early‑career industry experience. Knowledge in areas such as transducer design, ultrasound signal processing, high‑speed electronics, image segmentation, regulatory standards like EN 60601 and metrology techniques including scanning hydrophones will be particularly valuable.
The company operates from a purpose‑built, award‑winning campus surrounded by green space and designed to support creative and collaborative work. Employees benefit from a comprehensive package that includes an annual bonus, enhanced pension contributions, private medical cover, free meals, life assurance and a range of additional perks typically associated with a leading technology employer.
Interest in this opportunity is expected to be high. If the role aligns with your experience and ambitions, early application is strongly recommended.
To discuss the position further, contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and DeepTech Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240. You may also submit your CV, and a member of the team will be in touch to guide you through the next steps.....Read more...
Embedded Software Engineer – Security Clearance – Cambridge
A growing spinout security technology company, based in Cambridge, is currently seeking an experienced Embedded Software Engineer to assist with the development, modification, and enhancement of various security technologies.
Your focus will span across radio, satellite, communications, radar, sensors, and other complex technologies used in the defence, aerospace, telecommunications, and other cutting-edge sectors, where you will contribute to the development of new technologies.
You will collaborate with a team of experts, including electronics design engineers, software engineers, mechanical engineers, physicists, and other specialists. You won't necessarily need prior experience in the specific sector, as this is trainable, but you should have substantial experience in developing embedded systems using C/C++ programming languages.
This company provides bespoke products and services for clients, ensuring that your projects will always be unique, presenting their own set of problems and challenges to keep you engaged. In addition to client projects, you will be involved in developing new versions of existing technology and improving current versions, offering a diverse and engaging role that will keep you interested for the long term.
While experience in telecommunications, aerospace, scientific, radar, radio, or other complex technologies that involve communication between devices would be ideal, it is not essential. Your experience as an Embedded Software Engineer is more crucial than the specific sector.
Certain roles may require security clearance, typically necessitating a British passport with no criminal record or a history of residing in the UK and paying taxes for several years (also with no criminal record).
This role has arisen due to the company's growth. They take pride in investing in their staff by providing continuous training to support your career development. They have received awards for their commitment to staff development.
In addition to award-winning training, career growth, and varied and unique work, you will receive a competitive starting salary, bonuses, pension contributions, medical insurance, life assurance, free parking, and other excellent benefits.
There are currently several openings for Embedded Software Engineers within the company, so they will consider candidates with different levels of experience, from those early in their careers to senior candidates with years of experience.
Salary will be determined based on experience, and there may be new roles approved in the future. If you are interested, we recommend submitting your application now to avoid missing out.
For further information, please do not hesitate to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices Recruitment and Scientific Recruitment Specialist at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240, or submit an application, and a member of our Newton Colmore team will contact you.

Medical Devices Consultant – Senior Mechanical Engineer – Cambridge
Due to the growth of a leading Medical Devices organisation, we are currently seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer, Project Manager, Medical Devices Inventor, or Mechanical Design Consultant for a newly approved role. The company is based in Cambridge and boasts some of the most impressive labs globally, which they are currently enhancing even further.
You will collaborate with other experts in Medical Devices who have backgrounds in Mechanical Engineering, Mechanical Design, Electronics Design, Electronics Engineering, Physical Engineering, Biomedical Sciences, and various other skills essential for inventing Medical Technology. Consequently, teamwork will be crucial.
In this role, you will lead projects, necessitating experience as a consultant, project manager, or another role involving interactions with third parties. Additionally, you will apply your skills hands-on, directly contributing to the development of new Medical Devices.
We require several years of experience in Mechanical Design of Medical Devices. Familiarity with any 3D CAD tool is acceptable, as we understand that you can be trained on the necessary tools when required. However, knowledge of SolidWorks would be advantageous.
Most individuals in similar roles hold a degree in a Mechanical Engineering field, but experience takes precedence.
In terms of experience, we welcome candidates ranging from those stepping up to a Senior Mechanical Engineer role to individuals with several years of experience as a Medical Devices Consultant or Senior Mechanical Engineer.
This organisation has an outstanding track record of fostering continuous learning to keep you at the forefront of the Medical Devices sector. Consequently, opportunities for career and skills development are always available.
In addition to these benefits, you will receive an excellent salary (commensurate with your level of experience), a substantial bonus, a generous pension plan, healthcare coverage, complimentary meals throughout the day, life assurance, access to social clubs, wellness programs, an onsite gym, and other exceptional perks that are not commonly offered by most companies.
We anticipate substantial interest in this role, so if you are interested, we recommend submitting your application promptly. The organisation is open to candidates with varying levels of experience. If you possess some of the required skills but not all, it may still be worth applying as training could be provided (though you must have industry experience as a Mechanical Engineer or Mechanical Designer for Medical Devices as a minimum).

Regulatory Affairs Specialist – Medical Devices - Cambridge
A growing technology and product development organisation in Cambridge is looking to appoint a Regulatory Affairs Specialist to support a wide range of innovative projects. This role sits within a team that works closely with engineers, scientists and designers, helping them bring complex ideas to life while ensuring that every development pathway aligns with global regulatory expectations. The work is varied, fast‑moving and highly collaborative, giving you the chance to contribute to breakthrough technologies across both medical and non‑medical sectors.
You will be joining a quality and regulatory function that plays a central role in maintaining and improving the company’s management systems. Rather than simply reviewing documents, this team is embedded in project activity, offering practical guidance that shapes product development from the earliest stages. Their work ensures that internal processes remain compliant with international standards and that clients receive the assurance they expect from a world‑class development partner.
In this position, you will provide regulatory support across the business, working with multidisciplinary teams and assisting senior members of the QA/RA group with the ongoing operation of the quality management system. The role offers exposure to a wide range of market areas, giving you the opportunity to broaden your regulatory knowledge and deepen your experience across multiple industries. You will be expected to apply your understanding of standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 13485 and FDA 21 CFR 820, helping teams navigate compliance requirements while still enabling innovation.
A key part of your work will involve monitoring changes in international regulations and standards, interpreting what they mean for the organisation, and communicating updates to colleagues. You will contribute to internal improvement initiatives, support external audit activities, and help ensure that quality and regulatory processes remain robust, efficient and aligned with business needs. This role requires someone who can balance the freedom needed for creative problem‑solving with the discipline required for regulated product development, finding pragmatic solutions that work in real‑world commercial environments.
To succeed, you will need to be a clear thinker who can work independently while supporting and enabling others. Strong communication skills are essential, as you will be building relationships across a wide range of stakeholders and taking ownership of initiatives that improve the way the business operates. You should be able to demonstrate experience in developing or contributing to regulatory strategies, interpreting regulatory requirements, and understanding the implications for downstream processes. Knowledge of medical device compliance will be particularly valuable.
It is expected that you will hold a relevant degree that has supported your move into a Regulatory Affairs position within the medical devices sector. It will also be important that you have contributed to a medical device that has progressed from early development through to commercial release, giving you a clear understanding of the full lifecycle and the regulatory considerations at each stage.
This is an excellent opportunity to join a forward‑thinking organisation where you can develop your expertise, contribute to meaningful innovation and play a key role in shaping how new technologies reach the market.
If you have regulatory affairs experience and are looking for a challenging and rewarding role within a growing organisation, then apply now. I expect strong interest in this position, and the company is looking to move quickly, so I would recommend submitting your application immediately or risk missing out.

Mechanical Engineer – Programme Manager – Drug Delivery Devices
A period of significant growth has created an opportunity for a Programme Manager with a strong Mechanical Engineering background and deep, hands‑on experience in drug delivery device development. Based in Cambridge, you will lead multiple programmes focused on advancing next‑generation delivery platforms. Some projects will see you mentoring and guiding junior engineers, while others will require you to take ownership of core mechanical design activities yourself.
We are seeking someone who is currently working at the forefront of drug delivery technologies—such as autoinjectors, inhalers, infusion systems, wearable delivery devices, or other combination products—and who is confident translating complex user, clinical, and regulatory requirements into robust mechanical solutions. Experience with electro‑mechanical medical devices is highly advantageous, as many of the programmes you will lead involve integrated systems and multidisciplinary collaboration.
To succeed in this role, you will need to be commercially minded, able to balance technical innovation with real‑world product viability. You should have experience successfully taking medical or drug delivery products through development and into market launch, understanding the commercial, regulatory, and manufacturing considerations that shape decision‑making. This is a highly collaborative environment, so you must be comfortable working closely with internal teams, external partners, clients, and suppliers to drive programmes forward efficiently and strategically.
A strong academic foundation in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline is expected. A master’s degree or PhD would be beneficial, but industry experience in developing regulated drug delivery systems is the key requirement. Familiarity with EN60601 is useful, and a solid working knowledge of ISO 13485 and design controls for combination products is essential.
The technologies you will help shape are genuinely life‑changing—innovative drug delivery systems that improve therapeutic outcomes, enhance patient adherence, and ultimately transform lives on a global scale.
This position involves extensive communication with internal teams, external partners, and clients, so experience in roles requiring regular project updates, stakeholder management, and cross‑functional coordination will be valuable.
Many individuals who excel in this environment have a naturally technical mindset and enjoy hands‑on problem solving—whether that’s building drones, programming, tinkering with engines, or similar hobbies. If this sounds like you, make sure it’s visible on your CV.
In return, you’ll join a world‑class organisation offering a clear career development pathway, continuous technical training, an excellent salary, bonus scheme, enhanced pension, medical insurance, free meals, and the full suite of benefits expected from a global blue‑chip company.
Interest in this role will be high, so early applications are encouraged.
For more information, please contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and DeepTech Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240. Alternatively, submit your application and a member of our team will be in touch. Please note that without a CV, we can only provide limited information.....Read more...
