R&D Engineering Manager (NPD & hardware design exp. req.) Description
Our client is seeking an Engineering Manager to add to their team near Columbus, OH. You will oversee their engineering team (3) and R&D from each project’s discovery phase up to each product’s delivery to production. You’ll spend about 60% of your time focused on R&D helping the team design customized electronic solutions for vehicles, industrial, and marine applications with the balance of your time on admin/management initiatives as well as customer interaction. Because the solutions they design are so niche, there isn’t as much competition in the market so you can feel secure about making this move. What’s even better is the control they have over their work. They own their building and production making everything in their job shop. You’ll have the flexibility you don’t often see since they’re not relying on contract manufacturing. You’d be a perfect fit if you enjoy working with smaller companies and believe in that player/coach leadership style. Someone who values communication and prides themselves on their ability to build and mend bridges while still being a hands-on contributor. You will be taking over engineering from one of their partners who will be retiring within the next year. If you enjoy being an active contributor while still having your fingerprints on larger strategic initiatives, this is the perfect opportunity for you to have more impact without compromising your work/life balance.
