Mechatronics Engineer

Job description

Build electronics that genuinely improve people’s lives in Leeds. This Mechatronics Engineer role sits within a small, senior engineering team developing upper-limb robotic prosthetics used globally. You’ll own electronics design end-to-end, influence how products reach manufacture, and work hands-on with complex electro-mechanical systems. Salary £60,000 to £65,000 plus strong benefits.

Scope of the Role

As a Mechatronics Engineer, you'll be responsible for owning electronics design within highly integrated electromechanical products, taking concepts through to technical file transfer.

• Lead schematic design, PCB layout oversight, debugging and hands-on board bring-up
• Own electronics design data, revision control and change processes
• Collaborate on electromechanical design with mechanical and software engineers
• Drive electronics design for manufacture, assembly, test and production transfer
• Support risk management activities within regulated electro-mechanical systems

Key Skills and Experience Required

• Proven experience as a Mechatronics Engineer delivering products into manufacture
• Professional schematic capture and PCB design for shipped electro-mechanical systems
• Hands-on debugging, fault-finding and modification of electronic assemblies
• Experience working in regulated environments with documentation and change control
• Strong collaboration skills with Mechatronics Engineer, mechanical and software peers

Salary and Benefits

• £60,000 to £65,000 basic salary
• Hybrid working with a minimum of two days per week on-site in Leeds
• Increased on-site time during build, test and verification phases
• Pension contribution and standard benefits package
• Opportunity to reduce reliance on external consultancies and build in-house capability

You’ll be joining a close-knit engineering group that values clear thinking, practical decision-making and shared ownership. The culture suits engineers who enjoy seeing their designs reach production, explaining trade-offs clearly, and working across electromechanical design, robotics and real-world manufacturing constraints. As a Mechatronics Engineer, you’ll work on meaningful products, not endless prototypes, alongside people who care about doing things properly.
