About this role
Engineering Leadership and Strategy: Lead, coach and develop the Mechanical and Structural Engineering team; establish clear objectives, accountability, succession plans and capability-development priorities. Translate product and business roadmaps into mechanical engineering strategies, resource plans, technical priorities and execution commitments. Own technical governance for mechanical, enclosure and structural design, including design reviews, decision records, risk management and configuration/change control. Build a culture of engineering rigor, ownership, innovation, collaboration and continuous improvement across global and cross-functional teams.
Responsibilities
- Lead, coach and develop the Mechanical and Structural Engineering team; establish clear objectives, accountability, succession plans and capability-development priorities.
- Translate product and business roadmaps into mechanical engineering strategies, resource plans, technical priorities and execution commitments.
- Own technical governance for mechanical, enclosure and structural design, including design reviews, decision records, risk management and configuration/change control.
- Build a culture of engineering rigor, ownership, innovation, collaboration and continuous improvement across global and cross-functional teams.
- Provide technical leadership across the complete product lifecycle, from requirements definition, architecture and concept selection through detailed design, prototype builds, verification, manufacturing release, field deployment and lifecycle support.
- Guide the development of parametric 3D CAD models, large assemblies, manufacturing drawings, bills of materials, specifications and product data using PTC Creo and PLM systems.
- Ensure robust design practices for sheet-metal components, weldments, molded plastic parts, standard components, interfaces, sealing, lifting, transportation and serviceability.
- Approve critical design solutions based on GD&T, tolerance stack-up, material selection, design-for-manufacture / assembly / service, reliability, safety, cost and supply-chain considerations.
- Lead technical trade-off decisions and ensure structured closure of design risks, test findings, non-conformances and field issues.
- Provide oversight for analytical calculations, FEA and CAD-based verification of mechanical and structural performance.
- Ensure designs meet applicable requirements for seismic, transportation, wind, lifting, internal pressure, ice and snow, fatigue and product lifecycle loading.
- Govern verification and validation plans, physical test requirements, test readiness reviews, post-test correlation and improvement of predictive CAE models.
- Ensure compliance with applicable standards and codes, including ANSI, ISO, ASME, EN 1993, ISO 1496, IBC 2018, ASCE 7-16, ASTM D4169 and the Convention for Safe Containers (CSC 1972), as relevant to product and project requirements.
- Coordinate with licensed Professional Engineers and external laboratories where certification, stamping or independent validation is required.
- Partner with Program Management, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Safety, Quality, Supply Chain, Procurement, Manufacturing Engineering, Logistics, Service and project teams to deliver successful product releases and deployments.
- Present design direction, trade-offs, risks and recommendations to senior stakeholders; defend decisions with data while incorporating constructive feedback into the design cycle.
- Drive value engineering, cost reduction, standardization, modularity and design reuse without compromising safety, quality, compliance or product performance.
- Improve engineering processes, design standards, reusable methods, lessons learned and technical documentation to increase execution speed and consistency.
- Monitor portfolio-level technical risks, capacity, milestones and dependencies; escalate constraints early and lead recovery plans when commitments are at risk.
Qualifications and Experience
- Bachelors or masters degree in Mechanical Engineering, Structural Engineering or a related discipline.
- Significant experience (15+ years) in mechanical product development, including leadership of multidisciplinary engineering teams and delivery of complex products from concept through manufacturing and field deployment.
- Demonstrated expertise in enclosure and structural design, sheet metal, weldments, molded components, manufacturing drawings, GD&T and tolerance analysis.
- Advanced experience with PTC Creo 8.0 or later, large-assembly management and product data/change management within a PLM environment.
- Strong practical knowledge of FEA, structural mechanics, material behavior, fatigue, test correlation and validation planning.
- Experience applying international mechanical and structural standards to product design and qualification.
- Proven ability to manage technical priorities, develop talent, influence across functions and communicate complex decisions to technical and executive audiences.
- Experience in energy storage, renewable energy, power systems, industrial equipment, transportation, containers or other highly regulated products is preferred.
Leadership Competencies
- Strategic thinking with strong execution discipline and sound engineering judgment.
- People leadership, coaching, performance enablement and organizational capability building.
- Decision-making under ambiguity, with transparent management of assumptions, risks and trade-offs.
- Executive communication, stakeholder influence and constructive conflict resolution.
- Customer and business focus, balanced with uncompromising commitment to safety, quality and compliance.
- Ownership mindset with the ability to drive outcomes across organizational and geographic boundaries.
