Description

Your Responsibilities :

Reporting to the Senior Expert Engineer, you design, develop, and maintain the electrical, electronic and power systems that drive Powervamp’s GSE product range. You work across the full development cycle — from architectural design through hands\-on testing to production deployment — in close collaboration with hardware designers and a multidisciplinary engineering team. Your mission: deliver high quality, accurate, and well\-documented integration of hardware with control systems that meet the demanding performance and safety requirements of the aviation ground support environment.

Concretely, you will:

  • Equipment Design: Develop and update electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and component layouts for GSE using CAD software (e.g., SEE Electrical).

  • System Integration: Integrate electrical components into mechanical systems, designing robust electrical harnesses and cable assemblies.

  • Testing \& Validation: Develop test procedures and execute tests, analyse data, and troubleshoot faults to certify operational reliability.

  • Compliance \& Safety: Ensure all electrical designs comply with applicable standards and safety regulations.

  • Documentation: Prepare comprehensive technical reports, Bills of Materials (BOMs), operating manuals, and maintenance schedules.

  • Cross\-Functional Collaboration: Partner with mechanical engineers, software developers, manufacturing teams, and suppliers to drive project delivery.

  • Schematic Capture: Design electronic circuit schematics and optimize board layouts for performance and manufacturability.

  • Integration: Connect sensors, motors, and drives to PLCs, and design Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) for operators.

  • Technical: Proficiency in schematic capture, PLC control systems, and low/high voltage systems.

Profil recherché

The Profile We Are Looking For :

  • Bachelor’s degree (BEng/BSc) or HND/HNC in Electrical or Electronic Engineering.

  • 3\+ years of experience in electrical engineering in a manufacturing environment — ideally in heavy equipment, industrial systems, or aviation ground support.

  • Hands on approach – comfortable supporting prototype builds, capturing information and transferring to CAD.

  • Strong understanding of power distribution, low voltage systems, PLCs, and motor controls.

  • Experience with Controller Area Network (CAN) communication protocol and systems.

  • Methodical, detail\-oriented approach to problem\-solving: you read signal traces, isolate root causes, and document your findings clearly.

  • Good communicator and team player — comfortable contributing to cross\-functional technical reviews and working alongside hardware and mechanical engineers.

  • Field and product focus: you think beyond the bench — aware of how your system behaves in real\-world aviation service conditions and what that means for reliability, safety, and aftermarket support.

  • Adaptability: comfortable switching between new product development and legacy maintenance, schematic and harness support tasks, without losing sight of your delivery commitments.

  • Proactive and outcome\-driven, with a sense of initiative and a continuous improvement mindset.
Your Place in the Organization :

You report to the Senior Expert Engineer at Powervamp, Kempston, and work as part of a multidisciplinary engineering team spanning embedded, electrical, and mechanical disciplines. You collaborate closely with hardware designers, PCB developers, and product engineers — as well as with TLD engineering teams worldwide. Hierarchy at TLD is short and accessible: your technical contributions shape how our products perform in the field, and the path from hands\-on engineering to broader technical ownership is open to those who deliver.

Why You’ll Want to Apply :

TLD Powervamp is a business in full growth: new products are being developed, zero\-emission GSE demand is accelerating, and the firmware you write will control ground power units trusted by airlines and airports in 60\+ countries. You will work across the full embedded stack — from bare\-metal C on Microchip and STM32 microcontrollers to 400 Hz frequency converters and 28 V DC battery management systems — in an environment where technical depth is valued, hardware curiosity is rewarded, and international exposure comes with the role. At TLD, hierarchy is short: your voice carries weight. If you are energised by embedded challenge, hardware\-software co\-design, and a real contribution to the decarbonisation of aviation ground support — we’d love to hear from you.

Apply now and help power the next generation of Ground Support Equipment. \#WeAreTLD ✈
