  • Ability to balance hands-on design work with project leadership
  • Strong problem-solving skills and comfort in a fast-paced environment
  • Clear communication across teams, functions, and, at times, with clients

Why This Role Is Different

  • Ground-floor impact – Help shape a new engineering hub from day one
  • True engineering environment – Design, prototype, and build systems on-site

  • Startup energy, stable backing – High ownership with the support of a global company
