🔧 Engineered Solutions | Industrial B2B | Leadership Role

We’re looking for a Director of Engineering to lead and scale a high‑impact, customer‑facing engineering organization that delivers engineered solutions, field services, training, and custom‑built solutions.

This is a senior leadership role for someone who can blend technical depth, commercial mindset, and operational execution—positioning Engineering as a strategic, revenue‑generating engine that drives customer value, margin growth, and long‑term account expansion.


Why This Role Stands Out

✅ Executive‑level visibility and influence

✅ Own the full lifecycle: engineering → fabrication → delivery

✅ Direct impact on revenue, margins, and customer success

✅ Lead multidisciplinary teams in a solutions‑driven environment

  • Engineering – Field Engineers & Application Engineers - 3 Direct Reports to Start and Growing Significantly
  • Custom Solutions & Services – Technical Specialists, Trainers, Production & Scheduling
  • Fabrication & Assembly Teams


What You’ll Do

🔹 Set the vision, strategy, and operating model for the Engineering organization

🔹 Scale teams and capabilities to support growth across markets and customers

🔹 Act as senior technical authority and escalation point for complex challenges

🔹 Drive delivery of engineered solutions, field services, training, and custom fabrication

🔹 Ensure engineering excellence, safety, quality, and best practices

🔹 Balance solution standardization with high‑value customization

🔹 Partner closely with Sales to support solution selling and technical win strategies

🔹 Support key customer engagements, technical reviews, and executive presentations

🔹 Oversee production scheduling, capacity planning, and on‑time delivery

🔹 Own margins, utilization, and continuous process improvement

🔹 Build, develop, and retain top engineering and technical talent


What We’re Looking For

🎓 Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Chemical, Industrial or related)

🧭 7–10+ years of progressive engineering leadership experience in an industrial B2B environment

👥 Proven experience leading customer‑facing engineering teams

⚙ Strong background in engineered systems, custom fabrication, and technical services

🤝 Demonstrated success partnering with Sales and Operations


Preferred:

  • Master’s degree in Engineering or Business (MBA)
  • Experience in fluid systems, life sciences, semiconductor, or advanced manufacturing
  • Background in distribution, OEM, or engineered solutions business models


The Opportunity

This role is ideal for a leader who wants to build something, influence strategy, and turn engineering expertise into measurable business results.
