In addition to core engineering responsibilities, you will:
Lead or contribute to product development and qualification activities.
Define and manage technical work packages.
Support and write technical proposals and bids.
Engage directly with customers and stakeholders.
Influence project technical direction and delivery.

You will also have opportunities to develop into technical leadership and project leadership roles .
