Hardware Engineer (CPII2026-016)

We are hiring a Hardware Engineer to support day-to-day laboratory operations and multi-project R&D. The role combines hands-on mechanical and electrical design with lab tooling ownership and technical support for research and prototype teams.

• Design, prototype, and iterate mechanical parts and electrical/electronic circuits for laboratory and project needs
• Use CAD/ modelling software and circuit-design tools to produce drawings, schematics, BOMs, and build packages
• Own and manage laboratory tools, instruments, and related hardware assets (inventory, readiness, basic upkeep, and safe use)
• Provide on-site technical support across laboratory projects, including troubleshooting, assembly, wiring, and build assistance
• Coordinate with researchers and engineers to turn requirements into workable hardware solutions within agreed timelines
• Maintain clear technical records (drawings, revisions, test notes, and handover documentation)

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree or above in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Mechatronics, or a closely related field; combined mechanical and electrical background strongly preferred
• At least 3 years of relevant hardware engineering experience
• Proven project experience in both mechanical design and circuit/electronics design (please highlight concrete projects in your CV)
• Proficiency in mainstream 3D modelling / CAD software (e.g. SolidWorks, Inventor, or equivalent)
• Proficiency in circuit design / EDA software (e.g. Altium, KiCad, OrCAD, or equivalent)
• Comfortable with hands-on lab work: prototyping, assembly, wiring, debugging, and supporting multiple projects in parallel
• Clear communication in English and/or Chinese; able to work with researchers and external vendors
• Based in / able to work full-time in Hong Kong
