Electronics Engineer

Our engineering expertise is used to commercialise technologies and products that have a positive impact on human health, the environment, and society. As a Certified B Corporation, it is our vision that these ethical innovations are created through flexible and open engagements with our clients which include start-ups through to multinationals. 

We’re a motivated, accountable, and client-obsessed team of engineers. We provide commercial advisory and mechanical, electronics, firmware, and software development services to the utilities, medical, consumer, and government sectors. Our team is collaborative and supportive; we challenge assumptions, and we’re committed to doing great work for our clients and each other. Come make waves with us! 

The work is exciting, fast-paced, and varied. You will be a valued member of project teams that have a mix of internal and client team members, contractors, and specialist development partners. You’ll support and advise, both inside and outside of Exa. In a typical week, you may be contributing to proposal generation or project/systems planning, designing electronics, collaborating with colleagues through technical review and mentorship, and consulting clients.  

You will have direct engagement with clients, exposure to full product lifecycle development, and close collaboration with other disciplines – giving you the tools, visibility, and input you need to get the job done. We have a culture of self-management, so, you’ll have a high degree of ownership, flexibility, and accountability in your role.  

Celebrating your contributions to our team, we offer a generous profit-sharing program.
