Your role in our team
You will lead execution-based engineering for large-scale system integration projects, acting as the primary technical point of contact for customers and internal teams.
You will translate requirements into actionable engineering plans, coordinating mechanical design, equipment specifications, and on-site implementation.
You will work across disciplines (Mechanical, Controls, Electrical, Software) to align deliverables, troubleshoot issues, and drive schedule adherence.
You will manage engineering execution from kick-off through commissioning, including site support, FAT/SAT participation, and resolution of field issues.
You will oversee internal and external engineering resources, including offshore teams or outsourced partners, on a per-project basis.
You will apply practical understanding of conveyor, singulation, sortation, and other material handling technologies to ensure seamless system performance.
You will collaborate with Sales, Product, and Manufacturing to validate feasibility, cost, and scope alignment during project planning.
You will travel up to 30% to support customer integration projects.
Your profile

You have experience with 3D CAD tools such as Inventor, AutoCAD, or SolidWorks, and are familiar with developing full technical data packages (drawings, BOMs, manuals).
You can balance design intent with execution realities, managing scope, cost, and resource constraints.
You have a collaborative, hands‑on mindset with the ability to thrive in fast‑paced environments where outcomes matter.
You have a strong track record in project execution—owning technical delivery from engineering through on‑site installation.
