• Oversee engineering execution for custom and configured HVAC products, ensuring alignment with performance, manufacturability, cost, quality, and delivery objectives.
• Drive disciplined engineering processes related to documentation, design reviews, change management, and release readiness.
• Partner cross-functionally with Manufacturing, Product Management, Quality, Supply Chain, Sales, and Operations to support successful project execution and product delivery.
• Ensure custom product designs are feasible to manufacture, service, support, and sustain in production environments.
• Manage multiple concurrent priorities, schedules, and technical issues in a fast-paced, high-variation product environment.
• Support issue resolution and design changes resulting from customer requests, field needs, supplier constraints, and evolving project requirements.
• Promote strong engineering rigor in requirement definition, design validation, risk identification, and problem-solving.
• Improve team effectiveness through talent development, performance management, workload prioritization, and continuous improvement efforts.
• Ensure engineering outputs meet applicable quality expectations, industry standards, regulatory requirements, and internal design practices.
• Foster a collaborative, accountable, and customer-focused team culture.

What you will bring:
• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline.
• 5+ years of engineering experience in HVAC, thermal systems, refrigeration, custom equipment, or similar engineered product environments.
• 2+ years of leadership experience as a supervisor, team lead, project lead, or people manager in an engineering setting.
• Demonstrated experience supporting custom, configured, or design-to-order product development and execution.
• Experience translating external technical requirements into internal engineering actions, deliverables, and documentation.
• Strong technical knowledge of HVAC systems and components, including system integration, performance considerations, and application-specific design factors.
• Experience working with cross-functional teams in manufacturing or product-based environments.
