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...

You will work closely with software engineering teams to ensure smooth rollouts, rapid deployments, and seamless integration of features and services in production.
You will also focus on monitoring, alerting and system performance, using modern observability platforms to ensure uptime and proactively identify issues before they impact users. Collaboration is central to your success — you’ll partner with developers, security, product owners and other stakeholders to embed DevOps best practices and drive continuous improvement across the delivery lifecycle. A strong automation mindset and deep understanding of cloud architecture will help you optimise infrastructure performance, enhance security, and reduce operational overhead.
