• Lead and participate in high-level design and architecture reviews, exercising escalation authority as needed.
• Partner with Manufacturing, Field Service, Quality, Purchasing, and Supply Chain to resolve cross-functional technical issues across the product lifecycle.
• Support Applications Engineering and Sales with advanced guidance on product capability, compliance, and non-standard or complex applications, including pre- and post-award technical escalation.
• Provide technical input on make/buy decisions, vendor selection, and component/supplier qualification.
• Ensure compliance with applicable codes and standards (UL, NEC, IEEE, ANSI, IEC, CSA) and internal engineering standards.
• Mentor engineers across disciplines through design reviews, technical guidance, and knowledge sharing; contribute to performance and development planning.
• Drive continuous improvement in engineering processes, standards, tools, and cross-functional collaboration.

Qualifications:

• Proven ability to lead technically and influence outcomes without direct managerial authority, in a manufacturing-driven, cross-functional environment.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Professional Engineer (PE) license.
• Experience in engineer-to-order or configure-to-order manufacturing.
• Background in product platforms, technical standardization, or long-term product strategy.
• Experience serving as a technical escalation point for customer, field, or sales-driven issues.
