Jobs in Wixom, MI

About the role

This is a Director-level role. It carries full ownership of the engineering organization — its people, its processes, its strategic direction, and its output. It is not a step toward leadership. It is leadership. You build engineers, not just products — you take the development of your team as seriously as the quality of the work

What you'll bring

• 12–20 years of engineering experience, with at least 5 years leading engineering teams in a manufacturing or product development environment
• Managed and developed engineers across multiple disciplines — you’ve built teams, not just led projects
• Deep background in mechanical, electrical, or systems engineering
• hands-on experience with complex electromechanical or assembled products
• Owned customer-facing technical relationships at a senior level — you’ve been in the room when the stakes were high and the specs weren’t finished
• Worked inside or alongside contract manufacturers, Tier 1/2 suppliers, or HMLV production environments
• Led or contributed meaningfully to engineering compliance programs — ISO, CMMC, ITAR, AS9100, or equivalent
• Operated effectively in environments without perfect information — you’ve made good calls with incomplete data and owned the outcome
• Demonstrated ability to operate as a peer with commercial, operations, and finance leadership — not just within the engineering function
