CV-LibraryLS12, Holbeck, City and Borough of LeedspermanentPosted: 20 August 2026
Apply NowCubed Talent is proud to be partnering with a well-established engineering business that specialises in the design, build and testing of high-speed production machinery. As they continue to grow, they're looking for a skilled Electrical Test Engineer to join their assembly team and play a key part in bringing complex machines to life.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a hands-on electrical engineer who enjoys variety, problem solving, and seeing a machine through from build to customer buy-off.
What you'll be doing
* Programming, building and testing electrical sub-assemblies and complete machines
* Carrying out testing and wiring modifications as required
* Fault finding and problem solving - identifying, rectifying and documenting mods, changes and faults
* Downloading PLC and HMI, and making minor software changes to both as needed
* Setting up new out-the-box PLCs, drives, HMIs and remote I/O units
* Verifying schematic drawings in detail and feeding alterations back to Engineering
* Strip down, PDI documentation and supporting customer buy-off
What we're looking for
* A minimum of an NVQ Level 3 in Electrical Engineering and a HNC in the same discipline (or equivalent) - a HND would be a real advantage
* Considerable hands-on experience in programming, testing and wiring
* Strong technical skills, with confidence testing high-speed production machinery
* The ability to read and interpret technical drawings
* A team player with excellent communication skills and a genuinely approachable, can-do attitude
The package
* Salary of £40,676
* Annual bonus of up to £2,200
* 33 days annual leave
* Enhanced pension
* Health cash plan
* Life assurance
Hours & shift
This is a permanent, full-time position working the staggered day shift, with a 6:00am, 6:30am or 7:00am start. There's a possibility of moving onto double days in the future, so flexibility is important. Should you move onto double days, a shift allowance of 21.25% would apply (total salary would be £49,319).
Interested?
If you're an experienced Electrical Test Engineer looking for your next challenge with a business that genuinely values technical skill, we'd love to hear from you.
