$110,000 - $125,000

+ 401(k) + Medical + Dental + Vision + PTO + Birthday PTO + Training + Genuine Progression + much more!

Are you an Engineering Manager looking to lead a team, shape an engineering department and progress towards a future General Manager position?

Or are you an Engineering Supervisor or Lead Engineer ready to step up into your first Engineering Manager role?

This is a rare opportunity to join a well-established manufacturer where you won't just be another layer of management. You'll lead a small engineering team, influence the department and work directly with the President of the business, an Engineer himself.

You'll join a close-knit company where people build long-term careers. The team includes people who have been with the business for 15, 20 and even 25+ years, with a wealth of engineering and operational knowledge around you as you develop in the role.

With complex, engineered-to-order projects regularly exceeding $1M, you'll stay close to the engineering, support your team through real technical challenges and play a key role in taking projects from design through to delivery.

The progression opportunity is genuinely exceptional. Whether you're stepping up from Supervisor or Lead level, or already an Engineering Manager looking for more, you'll have the chance to take real ownership, grow into broader operational leadership and potentially progress into a future General Manager position.

The Role:

• Lead, support and develop a small team of Engineers and Service personnel
• Take ownership of and help shape the engineering department
• Provide technical guidance, review drawings and BOMs and solve complex engineering problems
• Report directly to the President while working closely with Production, Service and the wider business

The Person:

• Mechanical or Electrical Engineering background within machinery, capital equipment or manufacturing
• Strong SolidWorks and AutoCAD experience
• Ambitious, hands-on and excited by the opportunity to lead, influence and progress
