- Build rhythm and clarity into how we work - without slowing down what makes us fast
- Turn customer needs into engineering direction and see it through to delivered results
- Improve how we work: from design documentation to knowledge sharing
- Work closely with Sales, Operations and Procurement - engineering is part of the solution, not a handover
- 5+ years in engineering, including 2+ years in people leadership
- Mechanical/hydraulic design experience is a plus
- Experience in fast-paced or customised manufacturing environments
- A hands-on, pragmatic leadership style with strong communication skills
Our customers operate in extreme conditions - and rely on us for precision tools they can trust. What sets us apart is our ability to develop custom-engineered solutions with short lead times and high technical integrity. As Engineering Manager, you'll play a key role in scaling that ability - without compromising on quality or ingenuity.
