3+ years of relevant professional engineering experience, preferably involving complex electromechanical or multidisciplinary systems.
Demonstrated experience managing, leading, or coordinating technical or engineering projects.
Working knowledge of systems engineering principles, including requirements development, system integration, verification, validation, and troubleshooting.
Ability to understand and work across electrical, mechanical, software, firmware, and controls disciplines.
Strong project planning, scheduling, organization, and documentation skills.
Experience managing project schedules, milestones, deliverables, dependencies, and task ownership.
Strong analytical and technical problem-solving abilities.
Ability to independently identify risks and drive technical issues toward resolution.
Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to communicate effectively with engineers, leadership, vendors, customers, and non-technical stakeholders.
Ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
