About the role
Job Description
Apply your electronics expertise to influence the design and performance of next-generation radar systems
At Leonardo, we’re looking for an Electronics Engineer with a passion for reliability, supportability and solving complex engineering challenges.
This is not a traditional design role — it’s an opportunity to influence how advanced electronic systems are designed, maintained and sustained throughout their life.
Working on cutting-edge radar programmes in Edinburgh, you’ll help ensure our systems are robust, supportable and mission-ready from concept through to in-service support and beyond.
What you will do as a Supportability Engineer (Electronics)
Work alongside electronics, systems and software engineers to influence the design of advanced radar products
Analyse electronic circuits, assemblies and subsystems to understand failure mechanisms and improve product resilience
Conduct reliability, maintainability and supportability assessments throughout the engineering lifecycle
Develop FMEA/FMECA and failure analysis activities at component, board and equipment level
Support diagnostics, fault-finding and testability strategies for complex electronic systems
Use RAMT techniques to help shape engineering decisions and optimise through-life support solutions
Contribute to root cause investigations and continuous improvement activities across development and in-service products
What you’ll bring
We’d love to hear from you if you have experience in some of the following:
Electronics engineering, hardware design, electronic test, systems engineering or product support engineering
Understanding of electronic components, circuit design principles and schematic interpretation
Failure investigation, root cause analysis or reliability engineering within electronic products
Reliability, maintainability, supportability, RAMT or design assurance activities
Working with complex, high-integrity or safety-critical systems
Degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics or a related discipline
We welcome applications from electronics engineers looking to move into reliability and supportability engineering. If you have a…
