Cambridge Consultants has deep expertise in wireless communication technologies, with one of the largest independent wireless development teams in the world. We work across the entire wireless landscape - from high-volume consumer applications such as portable internet-based devices, through to professional high-performance systems such as the air traffic control radios used to govern the US airspace. The markets that we address include telecommunications, healthcare, industrial, satellite, consumer and automotive. This breadth of wireless activity provides tremendous variety to our team.

Successful candidates can join us between May-October 2026. 

There is no deadline for this role, as we recruit on a rolling basis. Once the position is filled, we will close the advert. We encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

  • As required, present designs, results and conclusionsand produce high quality documentation for clients
  • Work as part of a close-knit, multi-disciplinary project team focused on delivering design solutions to our clients

As a graduate you will be supported with specific training and mentoring and as your experience develops, you will have the opportunity take on further responsibilities.
