Join our dynamic team at HEX Microsystems in Somerset West as a Senior Electronic/Embedded Engineer. We're looking for a creative problem-solver with a strong background in embedded systems to develop cutting-edge solutions for the consumer automotive market.

We offer a hybrid work environment, with 2-3 days per week in the office for the first 3-12 months.

What We Do.

If you worked for us you would tell people that we make really cool nerd toys and accessories for some of the biggest brands in the automotive industry. But a more techy description would be that we develop electronic micro-assemblies, hardware and software for automotive diagnostics - including our own GS-911 and ezCAN products. We also develop and produce the hardware for several high profile international customers with various world renowned after-market diagnostic solutions. Impressed yet?

Why Work For Us.

If you like solving complex problems you'll never be bored at HEX. Successful candidates will be part of a small team of highly motivated, passionate and skilled individuals. We believe in symbiosis - that's having mutual respect for each individual's skills and contributions to projects.

We have been in business since 2000 and have since enjoyed an overwhelming amount of success. The work environment is comfortable and secure and our attitude towards problem solving is highly creative and flexible (don't worry we don't do yoga - well not unless YOU want to).

We live our company values, which are "Innovation, Quality, Honesty, Respect, Passion and Flexibility"

We strive for exceptional quality products and excellent, fast customer service.

Our Culture.

We're made up of a bunch of tech experts and motorcycle enthusiasts (so basically - we're nerds and daredevils). We have a healthy mixture of work and play and are firm believers in a healthy-lifestyle team. If you are not having fun whilst working here, then this team is not for you...

Our Hiring Process.

  1. Complete and submit the online assignment (Can you walk the walk?)
  2. Online or face-to-face interview (We've got to make sure you're crazy enough to handle us)
  3. Online problem solving assessment (Have you got what it takes to think outside the box?)
  4. Second interview (So the CEO can size you up)
  5. Final selection (Only the toughest survive)
