Job Title: Senior Electronics Test Engineer

Location: Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire

Salary: Competitive

Job Type: Permanent, Full Time

Thurlby Thandar Instruments (TTi) is a well-established and highly respected designer and manufacturer of electronic test and measurement instrumentation. With more than 30 years of industry experience, we have built a global reputation for producing high-quality, precision instruments that are trusted by engineers, laboratories, and manufacturers worldwide.

All design, development, and manufacturing activities are based at our site in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire. From this location, we develop and produce a diverse portfolio of products including power supplies, signal generators, spectrum analysers, digital multimeters, and other advanced electronic test equipment. Our products are supplied internationally through a carefully selected network of distributors and partners.

We are seeking a Senior Electronics Test Engineer to join our Manufacturing Test Department. This is a key technical role, offering the opportunity to play a pivotal part in both day-to-day production support and the longer-term development of our test strategies and processes.

The successful candidate will initially be embedded within production test, gaining a detailed understanding of our full range of precision instruments and the manufacturing processes that support them. You will work hands-on with complex electronic assemblies, carrying out advanced fault diagnosis, root cause analysis, and component-level repair across a variety of analogue, digital, and mixed-signal products.

As a Senior Electronics Test Engineer, you will act as a bridge between complex technical diagnostics and efficient, repeatable production testing. You will provide technical leadership and support to the production test team, working closely with the Technical Manager to ensure production targets, quality standards, and customer shipment schedules are met.

Using your experience and technical insight, you will contribute to the development and continuous improvement of test strategies, test processes, and test equipment. You will help ensure best practices are followed, inefficiencies are identified, and improvements are implemented to enhance product quality, reliability, and throughput.

This role also offers a clear development pathway, with the potential to progress into a Test Management position within approximately four years, for candidates who demonstrate the capability and desire to take on increased responsibility and leadership.

You will have a proven background in electronics test, fault diagnosis, and component-level repair, ideally gained in a low-volume, high-mix manufacturing environment where problem-solving and adaptability are essential.

You should be comfortable working with complex electronic systems and able to go beyond simply fixing faults, instead understanding why failures occur. You will use this knowledge to propose and support improvements to test methods, manufacturing processes, and product robustness.

You will be methodical, analytical, and quality-focused, with strong communication skills that allow you to work effectively with production teams, engineers, and management.

Your profile should include:

• Demonstrable experience in electronics test, fault diagnosis, and component-level rework
• Active involvement in the design, development, or improvement of test processes and procedures
• The ability to analyse failures and identify root causes, not just symptoms
• Ideally, experience in test jig or fixture design and manufacture
• Ideally, experience in test software development or automated test environments
• A qualification in electronics to at least HNC level, or equivalent practical experience

We offer a supportive and technically challenging working environment, with a strong focus on work-life balance and employee wellbeing. Our benefits include:

• A 37-hour working week over a 4-day schedule
• 5 weeks' annual holiday
• Pension scheme
• Employee wellbeing programme
• Salary sacrifice scheme for electric vehicle leasing

Candidates with experience of; Senior Electronics Engineer, Test Engineer, Fault Diagnosis, Component Level Repair, Test Strategy, Manufacturing Test, Test Jig Design, may also be considered for this role
