Southampton | Hybrid Working (3 days per week on-site)

The better you become as an engineer, the less time you often spend engineering.

Technical leadership becomes programme leadership. Architecture becomes governance. Your experience is valued, but increasingly through reviews, approvals and project meetings rather than solving the problems yourself.

We're working with a company developing advanced communications technology and they're looking for a Principal Hardware Design Lead to provide technical and people leadership across a growing engineering function.

The role combines architecture, team leadership, customer engagement and product delivery. You'll help shape technical direction, support key customer discussions and lead a team delivering complex FPGA and ASIC technology, whilst remaining closely involved in the engineering decisions that underpin the product.

• Lead and develop a team delivering complex FPGA and ASIC technology.
• Define technical direction and influence long-term product strategy.
• Own the successful delivery of high-value engineering programmes.
• Work directly with customers, architects and senior stakeholders to turn ideas into products.
