With a significant pipeline of new product launches, they need a senior engineer to own their prototype sample build process - end-to-end.

The Role

As Senior NPI Engineer, you’ll lead sample builds across multiple concurrent IoT hardware programmes. From defining build specifications and sourcing components, to hands-on bench assembly, firmware flashing, cloud validation, and international dispatch - you’ll own the full lifecycle. This is a senior individual contributor role; no direct reports, but you’ll coordinate across engineering, programme management, and technician teams to get devices built right and shipped on time.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Flash firmware and validate end-to-end device connectivity and cloud data transmission
• Define sample build specifications in collaboration with hardware, firmware, mechanical, and software teams
• Coordinate materials procurement and manage inbound logistics from global suppliers
• Manage build schedules across typically three concurrent programmes - up to 100 units at peak
• Handle international sample dispatch including packaging, customs, export/import documentation, and dangerous goods compliance

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of hands-on experience in electronics, IoT, or connected hardware - in NPI, prototype engineering, or operations
• Proven ability to work directly with sensitive electronic hardware at bench level
• Supply chain experience including global component sourcing and supplier coordination
• Track record managing international shipments - customs, export/import docs, dangerous goods, and country-specific certification (CE, FCC)
• Working knowledge of IoT platforms and how hardware, firmware, and cloud configuration interact
• Strong communicator, comfortable working across global engineering, commercial, and supply chain teams

Why This Role?

This position has been created to scale up a fast-growing NPI capability at a genuinely exciting point in the business’s growth. If you thrive on variety, take pride in ownership, and want the satisfaction of seeing prototype hardware ship to global customers on time.
