This is a field-based Electromechanical Field Service Engineer role, focused on Healthcare equipment. The position covers installation, servicing, repairs, and upgrades of medical devices across the North and Northwest of England, with occasional travel to other UK regions or Europe. The ideal home location is within about 10 miles of Bolton, and within easy reach of the M66 / M62.


The engineer will work independently in the field, supporting customers across hospitals, clinics, and private practices. While the initial focus is on medical imaging and ophthalmic systems, the role may expand to other technical disciplines as further training is provided.


The role suits someone with a strong practical engineering background-ideally with experience in electrical, electronic, or software systems-who enjoys varied, hands‑on work, problem‑solving, and delivering excellent service on‑site. A professional, methodical, and customer‑focused approach is essential, along with good communication and organisation skills.


Working hours are 45 per week (Monday‑Friday), with 1 in 4 Saturdays on rotation. Flexibility for early starts, late finishes, and travel is sometimes required.


Key Responsibilities

  • Install, service, upgrade, and repair medical and ophthalmic equipment.
  • Diagnose faults methodically and liaise effectively with customers.
  • Complete service documentation and system updates accurately.
  • Maintain vehicle stock and manage parts returns compliantly.
  • Follow all health, safety, and quality standards.
  • Support colleagues and work flexibly across regions when needed.

Skills & Experience

  • Engineering background in medical, electronic, or electromechanical fields.
  • Experience with ultrasound or ophthalmic equipment advantageous.
  • Strong customer service and communication skills.
  • Organised, self‑motivated, and able to work independently.
  • Full clean UK driving licence; passport for occasional travel.
  • Ideally qualified to City & Guilds / ONC / HNC level in Engineering.

How Many Edge Computing Tools Do You Need to Know to Get an Edge Computing Job?

If you’re trying to start or grow a career in edge computing, it can feel like you’re navigating a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms — Kubernetes, Docker, IoT frameworks, AWS Greengrass, Azure IoT Edge, OpenShift, TinyML toolkits, networking orchestration, real-time streaming frameworks, and on it goes. Scroll job boards and community forums and it’s easy to conclude that unless you master every buzzword imaginable, you’ll never get a job. Here’s the honest truth most edge computing hiring managers won’t necessarily say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every edge computing tool — they hire you because you can solve real system problems using the tools you know. Tools matter, yes — but only when they support clear outcomes: reliable systems, performance at scale, secure edge deployments and real business value. So how many edge computing tools do you actually need to know to secure a job? For most edge computing roles, the answer is fewer than you think — and a lot clearer when sorted by fundamentals and roles. This guide shows you what matters, what doesn’t, and how to focus your time wisely so you come across as capable, confident and employable.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Edge Computing Job Applications (UK Guide)

In today’s fast-evolving tech landscape, edge computing is one of the most sought-after fields — blending distributed systems, embedded systems, networking, cloud, IoT, data and real-time processing. But that also means hiring managers are highly selective. They scan applications fast and look for signals of relevance, impact, technical depth and real-world delivery long before they read every line. This guide demystifies what hiring managers in edge computing look for first in your application — so you can tailor your CV, portfolio and cover letter to jump out of the stack. Whether you’re targeting edge systems roles, embedded IoT edge jobs, edge-native data roles, edge platform engineering or edge-AI positions, this checklist will help you position your experience in a way hiring managers can trust immediately.

The Skills Gap in Edge Computing Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Edge computing is rapidly moving from niche concept to critical infrastructure. As organisations deploy connected devices, sensors, autonomous systems and real-time analytics, processing data closer to where it is generated has become essential. From smart cities and manufacturing to healthcare, transport, defence and telecommunications, edge computing underpins systems where latency, reliability and resilience matter. Demand for edge computing skills across the UK is rising steadily — yet employers consistently report difficulty finding candidates who are genuinely job-ready. Despite growing interest and academic coverage, universities are not fully preparing graduates for real edge computing jobs. This article explores the edge computing skills gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they consistently miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build sustainable careers in edge computing.
