Senior Project Engineer

We are looking to add a Senior Project Engineer to our team. In this role you will develop and coordinate engineering projects supporting complex products and platforms. This role contributes to project success by resolving moderately complex project engineering challenges, coordinating cross-functional technical activities, and supporting engineering execution to achieve quality, cost, schedule, and technical objectives.

Working cross-functionally with engineering, manufacturing, quality, supply chain, program management, and operations teams, this role supports engineering activities from concept development through product delivery.

JOB DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Develop engineering project plans, schedules, resource requirements, and technical execution activities supporting complex engineering programs.
• Coordinate engineering deliverables, technical action items, project milestones, and cross-functional activities to support project execution.
• Evaluate project schedules, technical requirements, engineering progress, and project metrics to identify risks and recommend solutions.
• Coordinate engineering design, development, integration, testing, qualification, and product release activities.
• Evaluate engineering data, technical documentation, project metrics, and engineering progress to resolve moderately complex project engineering challenges.
• Recommend engineering changes, corrective actions, risk mitigation strategies, and process improvements supporting project objectives.
• Collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, quality, supply chain, program management, and operations teams supporting engineering projects across multiple programs.
• Develop project documentation, technical reports, engineering status updates, meeting materials, and project performance metrics.
• Provide project engineering guidance during design reviews, engineering investigations, technical meetings, and product development activities.
• Evaluate engineering processes, project management methodologies, documentation practices, and project execution activities to identify opportunities for improvement.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives that strengthen project execution, technical coordination, communication, and engineering effectiveness.
• Recommend improvements to project planning, resource coordination, engineering documentation, and project tracking processes.

JOB REQUIREMENTS AND MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's degree in engineering or a related engineering field with 5-8 years of related experience, or Master's degree with 3-6 years of related experience, or PhD with 0-3 years of related experience in project engineering, systems engineering, product development, program execution, or a related engineering discipline.
• Strong knowledge of engineering principles, product development processes, project engineering practices, and technical project coordination.
• In-depth understanding of project planning, scheduling, engineering change processes, product lifecycle management (PLM), and technical execution requirements.
• Proficiency in evaluating engineering requirements, technical specifications, project schedules, and development activities to identify discrepancies and recommend solutions.
• Thorough understanding of engineering documentation, manufacturing processes, project controls, risk management, and product development methodologies.
• Experience coordinating complex engineering activities, supporting systems integration, evaluating technical risks, and collaborating across engineering disciplines to support project milestones.
• Sound judgment when evaluating engineering challenges, balancing technical requirements, assessing project risks, and recommending solutions within established engineering and customer objectives.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite including Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Teams.
• Project management and scheduling software, e.g. Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, Jira, or equivalent applications.
• Engineering documentation, PLM, ERP, and collaboration tools, e.g. Windchill, SAP, or equivalent applications.
