Senior Mechatronics Engineer - Cambridge - Medical Devices

Senior Mechatronics Engineer - Cambridge - Medical Devices

A leading medical devices organisation in Cambridge is expanding its development team and is seeking a highly capable Senior Mechatronics Engineer to drive the creation of new, life‑changing technologies.

You'll work closely with mechanical engineers, physicists, electronics engineers and other specialists to design and develop complex medical devices that improve and save lives. This is hands‑on, multidisciplinary engineering at its best.

We're ideally looking for someone with experience in the medical devices sector, but we're also open to candidates from other highly regulated, technically demanding environments such as biotechnology, life sciences or healthcare technology.

Strong machine design capability is essential. You'll be confident with CAD, prototyping and building functional mechanisms. The project portfolio spans multiple medical specialisms. While some work will involve surgical robotics, this role is not suited to someone who wants to focus exclusively on robotics - you'll thrive here if you enjoy variety, switching between different device types and engineering challenges.

You will likely hold a degree in mechatronics, robotics, mechanical engineering or a closely related discipline that has led you into mechatronics design.

Joining this organisation places you on a strong long‑term career trajectory. Engineers here continually develop their skills, progress into senior roles and contribute to genuinely impactful technologies. Alongside career development, you'll receive an excellent starting salary (dependent on experience), bonuses, an enhanced pension and a benefits package rarely seen elsewhere.

People tend to stay with this company for the long term, the diversity of projects keeps the work fresh and engaging.

This is an on‑site role, five days per week. Due to the hands‑on nature of the work, remote arrangements are not feasible.

We expect significant interest in this position. If you're keen, we recommend applying promptly.
