Description:
Copello is recruiting on behalf of an engineering business working across defence and aerospace, where you would take a next-generation product from early research through to delivery. Along the way you would lead a group of subject matter experts.
You would own the technical plan, the product roadmap and the business case behind both, working closely with sales and business development. There is a clear route into an Engineering Manager position for the right person.
What you'd be doing
* Leading subject matter experts in defining the product vision and the technical solution.
* Researching and de-risking the key technology areas, with a clear view of the future architecture.
* Building the plan, team structure, estimates, schedule and risk register for the new product.
* Working with sales and business development to build the business case and shape the product roadmap.
* Guiding multidisciplinary development through to launch and delivery.
* Identifying and documenting the company's intellectual property.
* Mentoring junior engineers and developing senior ones.
* Tracking delivery against plan, milestones and unit cost targets.
What you'll need
* An engineering degree in a relevant discipline.
* At least five years of technical development experience.
* Demonstrable experience of leading a technical team.
* A background in systems engineering or systems integration on radar, surveillance or similar complex products.
* Confidence communicating in writing and in person with customers and end users.
