Electronics Design Engineer - Medical Devices FPGA - Cambridge

An exciting and growing Medical Devices organization based in Cambridge is currently seeking an experienced Electronics Design Engineer to work on the development of life‑saving and life‑improving Medical Devices.


With a primary focus on FPGA design, you will collaborate with other electronics engineers, mechanical engineers, software engineers, physicists, and scientists in the development of these Medical Devices.


In addition to FPGA Design, you will also engage in hands‑on prototype development, using soldering to construct the electronics you have designed.


You will be working with highly complex technologies, ensuring that your work remains challenging every day.


Ideally, you would have prior experience in electronics design for Medical Devices. However, we are open to candidates from other highly regulated sectors, as long as your expertise lies in FPGA electronics design.


It is expected that you hold a degree in electronics engineering. Nevertheless, if you have transitioned into an Electronics Design Engineering role through an alternative path, we would still like to hear from you, as industry experience holds significant importance.


Your dedication will be rewarded with an excellent starting salary, opportunities for career development, job security, bonuses, a pension plan, life assurance, and other outstanding benefits.


Given the anticipated high level of interest in this role, if you are seeking a new opportunity, we recommend submitting your application promptly to avoid missing out.


For more information, please do not hesitate to contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices Recruitment, and Scientific Recruitment Specialist at Newton Colmore, at (phone number removed). Alternatively, you can submit an application, and a member of our team at Newton Colmore will get in touch with you.


Newton Colmore Consulting is a specialized recruitment company operating within the Medical Devices, Scientific Engineering, Scientific Software, Robotics, Science, Electronics Design, New Product Design, Human Factors, Regulatory Affairs, Quality Assurance, and Field Service Engineering sectors.

Where to Advertise Medical Technology Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise medical technology jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and MDR/IEC 62304-aware channels that reach biomedical and medtech talent. The medtech candidate pool spans biomedical engineers, regulatory affairs specialists, clinical scientists, software engineers working within IEC 62304 and MDR frameworks, imaging scientists and commercial professionals with deep healthcare sector knowledge. General job boards consistently conflate medical technology with broader healthcare, pharmaceutical and IT roles — producing high application volumes but low candidate quality for specialist medtech positions. This guide, published by MedicalTechnologyJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise medical technology roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Medical Technology Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Medical Technology Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the trends shaping UK medtech hiring over the next three years — devices, diagnostics and digital health. Medical technology is one of those rare sectors where commercial ambition and genuine human impact point in exactly the same direction. The devices, diagnostics, digital health platforms, and AI-powered clinical tools that medical technology companies develop do not just generate revenue — they extend lives, reduce suffering, and change what is possible inside the clinical encounter. That combination of purpose and commercial scale makes the medical technology jobs market one of the most compelling in the entire UK life sciences and technology landscape. And that market is changing faster than at any previous point in the sector's history. The integration of artificial intelligence into diagnostic imaging, pathology, and clinical decision support has moved from research demonstration to regulatory approval and NHS deployment. Wearable and implantable devices are generating continuous patient data at a scale that is transforming how chronic conditions are monitored and managed. Digital therapeutics — software that delivers clinically validated therapeutic interventions — have emerged as a recognised product category with its own regulatory pathway. Surgical robotics has moved from a premium offering at a handful of specialist centres to a mainstream surgical platform whose capabilities are expanding with each generation. For job seekers, the medical technology jobs market of 2026 represents an opportunity that is both broader and more technically demanding than it was three years ago. The roles being created now span a wider range of disciplines, require a more sophisticated understanding of the intersection between technology and clinical practice, and carry higher regulatory expectations than the medtech jobs of even a short time ago. This article breaks down what the UK medical technology jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve in one of the most consequential sectors in the UK economy.
