The Denford VMC1300 Milling Machine was purchased to allow the mechanical engineering team to rapidly convert innovative concepts into fully functioning prototypes. This new in-house capability has meant key testing can be carried out without delay and has significantly advanced the development of our pioneering technology.

We are now looking to recruit an experienced ‘Electronics Engineer/Systems Integrator’ to join our multi-disciplinary team as we bring to market and seek to manufacture, distribute and support a novel family of products.

If you are a highly motivated and ambitious professional seeking a challenging new role, this is the opportunity to self-develop and succeed on a personal and professional level within a rapidly growing company.

Offering progression commensurate to contribution and development prospects, we offer a fast-paced environment, ideal for enhancing your technical and management skills. Ability to work in R&D, production and service roles: coordinating and working with the internal engineering team to sync with the external resources is a key requirement.

Electronics Engineer/Systems Integrator - The Role:

You will be responsible for helping to create a new generation of innovative products as well as help improve the current range of products as both customers and changes in technologies demand. You will help specify and design, prototype and help deploy leading edge electronics hardware in tandem with the requisite software/firmware and working closely with our mechanical design engineers and external contractors. This from inception, in the R&D role through to manufacture for production and service. As the team expands, good inter-personal and management skills (both people and parallel Projects) will be required. You will be required to produce and follow project and product documentation and be able to adopt a hands-on approach as and when the project requires. The engineering facility will seek to register to ISO13485 during Q1 2020.

Strong leadership skills together with an enquiring mind that is constantly looking at new technical options as Projects develop are key personal assets….a ‘can do’ attitude is vital as is the desire to complete Projects on time and on budget-reflecting the importance of the commercial role that the function also entails.

The technologies involved are also varied and include system design, digital design and microprocessors, analogue design, optoelectronics.

This role would suit an experienced Electronics Engineer looking for varied role.

You will take responsibility for the full product lifecycle: from early concepts and prototypes, to full production and upgrades. To this end, you will work closely with colleagues from sales and manufacturing as well as with suppliers to ensure technical and commercial success.

Interested? To be considered for the role, you ideally would have:

• Analogue or digital electronics systems design, build and troubleshoot experience essential
• Use and good experience of Altium 18 highly desirable
• Programming and Software Engineering: C #, C, C +, Embedded C, C++, or similar scripting language would be highly desirable
• A working knowledge of comm’s protocols is desirable
• Knowledge of Microprocessor Applications and DSP: microprocessor system application, single chip embedded solutions with product-oriented focus would be desirable
• Working knowledge of the CE validation process for instruments would be a distinct advantage.
• Interest in hardware/electronics interface with good trouble solving skills within a multi-disciplinary environment (mechanical engineers, scientists and external optical /electronics contractors an advantage).
• Good interpersonal skills; a manager who can organise and lead the team members and work with external contractors and suppliers.
• Business Environment Appreciation: in particular, active project management and an awareness of the commercial environment and the need for profit.
• You must be an enthusiastic and committed self-starter who can set goals and achieve them within the remit of the Business Plan. Working within an SME environment is important.

Job Functions:

• Liaising with line manager and helping to devise technical direction to sub-contractors and suppliers to ensure that projects are completed on schedule, to specification and within agreed budgets. Instigating, developing and managing the agreed Project Plan both internally and externally.
• Providing technical support in hardware, software/firmware and electronics from idea stage through to pre-production, testing and ‘productionisation’
• Routine customer service support as and when required. To include office and field-based activities. Aim is to provide direct and link engineering (to third party engineering support) for Company products.
• Assembly/Production implementation and Technical Management of the growing range of products, this will include production and inventory planning and scheduling to demand.

If you have the required skills and experience, please forward your current CV and covering letter, with salary details, explaining why you are a good fit for this role.

This week we have 2 of the instruments operating in Brazil and testing frozen patient blood and serum samples with a Dengue 1-4, Zika, Chikungunya 6-plex panel. Yesterday we correctly detected patients infected with these pathogens from frozen archived plasma samples. Today we should be able to test the corresponding frozen blood sample and this should represent the first human patient sample data for this new assay. This work is being performed in conjunction with Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine and funded in part by MRC.

Within the past month live virus testing has been completed on the new QuRapID LV instrument. This project was funded by the Department of Health to improve the UK's emergency response to pandemic viral diseases. BioGene has built a new system that can detect viral pathogens down to 3,000 virions per millilitre of whole blood added directly to the reaction vessel. The new approach takes under 50 minutes, reduces the cost per test and can detect multiple viruses concurrently by being able to detect multiple fluorophores in the presence of blood-this is a major new advance as this new IP is the first time this has been demonstrated.
