Quality Assurance Specialist – Cambridge
A growing Medical Devices company based in Cambridge is currently looking for a new Quality Assurance Specialist to assist in the development of the QMS system for ISO 13485 standards. They are open to candidates from alternative sectors, allowing for ISO 13485 standards training.
You will also be creating and managing technical files for several Medical Devices lines, including Class I, Class IIa and Class IIb Medical Devices. You’ll collaborate with a number of Medical Devices experts, but you will be the sole person focusing on Quality Assurance duties. However, you will receive Quality Assurance assistance from the parent company’s Quality Assurance Manager. Due to this, we are open to candidates who only have a couple of years of experience of ISO 9001 or QMS, but also keen to hear from people with more experience.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone a couple of years into their career and looking for more responsibility to lead the development of a QMS system, or for someone who is looking for a route into the Medical Devices sector under ISO 13485 standards. Due to the active work in setting up the QMS system, you will need to be in the office daily; however, over time there should be the opportunity for hybrid working.
It is expected that you would hold a degree in a subject that has led you into a Quality Assurance, Quality Engineering, or Design Assurance role.
Apart from having a Quality Assurance background, it would also be highly advantageous if you have a good understanding of Regulatory Affairs.
Part of your role will involve working alongside the manufacturing teams for these medical devices. Due to this, it would be highly beneficial if your Medical Devices Quality Assurance experience came from a Quality Engineering background, although this is not essential.
I anticipate a lot of interest in this role, so if you are interested, I suggest making an application now or risk missing out.

Electronics Engineer – Security Clearence - Cambridge
An opportunity has opened for an Electronics Engineer to join a specialist technology group based on a modern science park just outside Cambridge. The work centres on developing advanced electronic systems that contribute directly to the UK’s safety and resilience. Everything here is focused on defensive innovation, and the pace of growth means you’d be stepping into an environment with strong momentum and long‑;term investment behind it.
In this role, you’ll be involved in projects that move rapidly from early ideas to working prototypes. You’ll work alongside engineers, scientists and designers from a range of backgrounds, shaping concepts, testing approaches and turning complex requirements into practical solutions. The work covers the full development cycle, from initial system understanding through to design, documentation, hands‑on testing and final delivery. It’s varied, technically stretching and ideal for someone who enjoys solving real‑world engineering challenges.
The team is made up of people who are naturally curious and enjoy pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. Whether you’re leading a project or contributing as part of a wider group, you’ll be in an environment that encourages collaboration, knowledge‑sharing and continuous development. It’s a place where you can build a long‑term career in high‑end R&D.
You’ll bring a strong academic background and experience developing complex electronic systems. You should be comfortable working across hardware design, schematic capture, PCB layout, board bring‑up and testing, with exposure to areas such as embedded development, FPGA work, DSP, signal processing, high‑speed or RF design, or communications protocols. The exact mix is flexible — what matters most is sound engineering judgement and the ability to contribute effectively within multidisciplinary teams.
The organisation offers a supportive culture, a well‑equipped campus environment and a comprehensive benefits package. Relocation support is available where needed, and there’s an active social side to the business, from sports groups to creative activities.
Given the nature of the work, existing security clearance is ideal, though the ability to obtain clearance is essential.
Interest in this role is expected to be high, so early applications are encouraged.
