1) Lead the electromechanical portfolio (hands-on + strategic)
• Be the senior technical resource across mechanical enclosures, electrical circuits, embedded hardware, and firmware.
• Jump in to solve tough design, test, manufacturing, support, or certification challenges.
• Drive designs that balance performance, reliability, cost, and manufacturability.

2) Build and lead a high-performing team
• Manage and mentor engineers across mechanical, electrical, and embedded disciplines.
• Set expectations, coach performance, run reviews, and create development plans.
• Partner with recruiting/HR to attract and retain top engineering talent.
• Coordinate with the Engineering Project Lead on sprint output and delivery timelines.

3) Own certifications + compliance execution
• Lead certification readiness and success across UL, ISO, EX/ATEX, SIL, CSA, and FCC (as applicable).
• Maintain regulatory files and coordinate external labs/consultants.
• Stay current on changes to standards that could impact product design.

4) Raise the bar on design quality + manufacturing readiness
• Run regular design reviews and ensure best practices across teams.
• Improve reliability and reduce defects through strong engineering process.
• Partner with Operations on documentation systems (PDM/ERP integration) and release discipline.
