Centre Kienan Higgins is returning to Edinburgh on a one-year deal.
The 26-year-old previously joined Sean Everitt's side on a short-term basis in January from New Zealand side Hawke's Bay but has spent the intervening months in Major League Rugby with the New England Free Jacks.
Higgins will link up with his younger brother, Riley, who signed a three-year deal with the club back in April.
"I am absolutely delighted to be coming back to Edinburgh," he said.
"I loved my time here earlier in the season and I can't wait to see the squad again – there are some brilliant people at this club.
"It's obviously an incredible bonus that I get to come back alongside Riley; to play alongside my brother at the same club is something pretty special."
Head coach Everitt added: "We really enjoyed working with Kienan during his time here and we're delighted to welcome him back this summer.
"He made a strong impression during his spell with us and we're excited about what he can bring to the squad on a longer-term basis. He will add further competition in what is already a very competitive midfield group."
