You'll own projects from concept through launch, leading R&D, new product development, product introductions, and partnering directly with key customers on strategic development programs.

We're seeking a strong technical leader with deep power electronics expertise-not someone who has moved away from the engineering.

You'll have significant influence on product strategy and technology direction while partnering closely with senior engineering leadership on next-generation electrification initiatives.

The company is investing heavily in battery-electric propulsion, powertrain-agnostic platforms, and next-generation power electronics, creating an exciting opportunity to shape future products and technology roadmaps. If you thrive in a fast-paced development environment and want a role where you can truly make your mark, we'd love to connect.

Background:
  • BS in Electrical Engineering required; MS preferred.
  • Deep technical expertise in power electronics and power systems.
  • Experience leading new product development from idea to launch
  • Strong technical leadership and project management skills.
  • Background in rail, mining, automotive, heavy equipment, or industrial manufacturing.
