Thu, 20 May 2010

Electronics specialists are increasingly in demand, according to technical recruiter ATA Selection.
 
The firm says it has recently helped manufacturer of satellite and cable peripherals Global Invacom recruit electronics design, mechanical design and embedded system engineers, while ATA has also placed several engineers with Qioptiq, which produces thermal weapon sights for the British Army as well as technology for civilian and military aircraft and satellites.

Andrew Hardaker, managing director of ATA Selection, says: “We have particularly noticed a rise in vacancies for electronics design engineers in smaller companies, although larger companies are also looking for qualified electronics engineers.”
