We are partnering with a leading Irish manufacturer of life safety and connected home products to hire a Senior Electronic Design Engineer for their Shannon-based R&D team.
This is a hands-on senior role focused on the design and delivery of next-generation electronic products, from early concept through to high-volume manufacturing.
The Role
You will take technical ownership of board-level electronic designs, working closely with firmware, software, validation, and manufacturing teams. You'll be involved across the full product lifecycle, with real visibility of products being built and scaled on-site.
Key Responsibilities
Define hardware architectures and deliver board-level electronic designs
Lead hardware development from concept → schematic → PCB → bring-up → validation
Design low-power analogue and mixed-signal circuits, including power management and battery systems
Develop microcontroller-based embedded hardware platforms
Integrate wireless technologies (e.g. Bluetooth, WiFi, Zigbee, Z-Wave)
Apply EMC / ESD / EMI mitigation techniques to meet global compliance standards
Support product certification, testing, and manufacturing ramp-up
Ensure designs meet DFM / DFT and cost targets
Produce clear technical documentation and participate in design reviews
Mentor and technically support less experienced engineers where required
What We're Looking For
Degree in Electronic Engineering (or related discipline)
Strong industry experience in electronic hardware design
Proven board-level schematic and PCB design experience
Experience with low-power, battery-operated products
Solid understanding of analogue, digital, and mixed-signal design
Hands-on experience with MCUs and communication interfaces (I²C, SPI, UART, USB)
Comfortable debugging hardware in lab and manufacturing environments
Nice to Have
Experience with wireless / RF-enabled products
Background in consumer electronics, IoT, or regulated products
Exposure to high-volume manufacturing environments
