Company Overview

We are a large-scale manufacturing operation in New Jersey, constantly evolving and committed to technical excellence, efficiency, and innovation. Our engineering team includes specialists across multiple disciplines, and we are now seeking a strong, well-rounded leader who can bring these experts together to drive collaboration, growth, and continuous improvement.

Position Overview

We are seeking a highly experienced and technically strong Senior Engineering Leader who can guide, mentor, and elevate a diverse team of engineers. While each team member specializes in their area—process, industrial, mechanical, automation—the Senior Engineering Leader will unify their efforts, establish standards, and ensure best practices are adopted plant-wide.

The right candidate is not just a subject-matter expert but a strategic, big-picture leader who can inspire engineers, lead by example, and drive measurable improvements across all spaces. You’ll play a pivotal role in optimizing operations, training your team, and embedding a culture of continuous improvement.

The Ideal Candidate

  • A well-rounded senior engineer with deep technical knowledge and leadership presence.
  • Proven ability to unify and guide specialized engineers toward shared goals.
  • Skilled in mentoring, training, and developing technical talent.
  • Naturally curious, always seeking ways to optimize systems, workflows, and operations.
  • Confident communicator who can balance strategic vision with hands-on problem solving.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead, mentor, and develop a multidisciplinary engineering team across process, industrial, and mechanical functions.
  • Establish plant-wide engineering standards and best practices to ensure efficiency, quality, and safety.
  • Partner with specialized engineers to identify challenges, improve workflows, and optimize facility spaces.
  • Drive automation, process upgrades, and system enhancements in alignment with company goals.
  • Promote knowledge sharing and training across engineering disciplines.
  • Support capital expenditure planning, cost models, and ROI analysis.
  • Champion a continuous improvement culture across all engineering functions.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Industrial, Process, or related Engineering field (Master’s preferred).
  • 10–15+ years of engineering experience within manufacturing environments.
  • Strong technical expertise across multiple engineering disciplines (process design, systems optimization, automation, facility layout).
  • Proven leadership track record of managing, training, and growing engineering teams .
  • Experience leading cross-functional initiatives that improved efficiency, cost, or production scalability.
  • Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and project management skills.
  • Strong communication and leadership presence—capable of influencing both technical staff and executive leadership.

Must-Haves

  • 10+ years in high-volume manufacturing engineering.
  • Hands-on technical strength plus proven leadership of engineering teams.
  • Experience mentoring engineers and elevating team performance.
  • Demonstrated success leading process optimization and system improvements across multiple disciplines.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and performance-based incentives.
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage.
  • 401(k) retirement plan with employer contributions.
  • Professional development and training opportunities.
  • A collaborative environment with real impact on large-scale operations.

This is an exciting opportunity for a high-level engineer ready to step into a leadership role where you’ll unify specialized engineers, mentor rising talent, and drive measurable improvement across a large-scale manufacturing plant.
