About the role:
Working within a dynamic engineering-focused team, you will be accountable for the end-to-end engineering activities (development, delivery, and launch) relating to in production support of our current diesel engine products. You will lead a team responsible for multiple engine systems, completing all problem counter measure activities and feeding this learning into the concepts for new product. (Both Hydrogen and Diesel)
You will need to support and liaise with internal and external stakeholders, plan and control the systems project progress, manage the resource within your team, offer technical guidance and direction, provide mentorship and leadership, contribute to process development and the overall direction of the team.

This will be suited to you if:

• You’ve led multiple engine programmes from concept through to production, ideally including medium-duty diesel engines.
• You’re experienced in leading teams and managing delivery responsibilities, with excellent communication and documentation skills.
• You’re confident in the design, development, and problem-solving of engine components and systems such as crankshafts, valvetrain, cooling systems, lubrication systems, and more.

• You’re commercially aware and experienced in supplier management.
• You thrive under pressure and are passionate about delivering robust, validated engineering solutions.
