Senior Hardware / Electronics Product Lead required for a stealth hardware company in London, backed by top investors and preparing for Series A and building groundbreaking physical technology.
The current VP of Engineering is looking for a technical engineer, who can still be hands-on with electronics engineering, and has the business savvy to own the complete product lifecycle from initial sketch to full factory ramp-up.
This is not a purely isolated design role. You will bridge the gap between hard engineering and product delivery, taking full ownership off the leadership team's plate.
Responsibilities:
*
Total Product Ownership: You won’t just design circuits in a vacuum; you will own architecture, prototyping, supply chain, quality control, and mass manufacturing for multiple novel consumer products.
*
Flat, High-Impact Structure: Zero line-management bureaucracy, but genuine project leadership. You’ll guide a tight-knit London engineering team of ~10 and influence how our entire hardware organization scales.
*
Genuinely Groundbreaking Tech: You get to solve hard physical challenges and see your work deployed in significant market volumes.
Requirements:
*
End-to-End Track Record: You have personally taken complex physical hardware products all the way from idea to prototype to factory floor to high-volume production.
*
Hands-On Engineering Depth: Fluent across analogue/digital design, PCB bring-up, microcontrollers, sensor integration, power management, and DFM/DFT.
*
Production & Quality Control: Deep understanding of manufacturing partners, yield optimization, hardware validation, and rigorous production environments.
*
Commercial & Leadership Mindset: You understand the business side of product engineering - deadlines, supply chains, and design trade-offs.
Nice-to-Haves:
*
Degree from an elite engineering university (Oxbridge, Imperial, UCL, etc.).
*
Exposure to wearables, medical devices, IoT, automotive, or high-reliability consumer electronics.
