ambiguity and deliver products that meet Requirements, Standards, Directives, and are cost effective.

Work collaboratively with and effectively influence our engineering teams to ensure clarity of work packages, deliverables, and resolve engineering issues through determining the best solution.

Be accountable for the technical elements of the product system and/or subsystem design, as assigned, identifying risks, control and mitigation actions, escalating issues when necessary for higher-level resolution.

Ensure modularity and standardisation is incorporated to maximise reuse of our engineering effort.

Be accountable for safety and type testing of any system or subsystem you are responsible for, verifying and validating its compliance; reviewing and approving reports generated in this area, by the team.

Mentor and coach a growing core team of Electrical Engineers of all levels of expertise to continue their development towards being a Lead Electrical Engineer themselves.

Advocate and lead the adoption of best practice electrical engineering and new technologies (working with other teams in new and core technology development) across applicable projects to improve the delivery of engineering.

• To succeed, you will need
• Educated to Degree level (or equivalent experience) in a relevant Engineering/Science discipline (Essential).
• Formal training in problem solving / root cause analysis (e. g., 8D, Kepner-Tregoe, Six Sigma) or equivalent practical experience (Desirable).
• Significant experience in sustaining engineering / product lifecycle support, including investigation of field issues and delivery of corrective actions through engineering change (Essential).
• Proven ability to work across multiple engineering disciplines and stakeholders, influencing technical decisions without direct authority (Essential).
• Experience applying structured problem solving, risk assessment, and verification thinking to resolve complex technical issues (Essential).
• Deep technical competence in one or more relevant engineering disciplines with the ability to rapidly understand adjacent domains (Essential).
• Excellent problem solving and analytical skills; able to use data to drive to root cause and define pragmatic corrective actions (Essential).
• Strong understanding of engineering change, configuration control, and technical documentation practices (Essential).
• Ability to plan and execute verification activities (test, analysis) and assess risk using appropriate methods (e. g., FMEA) (Essential).
• Excellent influencing skills and the ability to communicate complex technical topics clearly to mixed audiences (Essential).

We encourage you to apply even if you don't meet every single requirement. We value diverse experiences and perspectives and are excited to see what you bring to the role.
