Overview
Are you a seasoned engineering leader with a passion for developing people and driving innovation? We're seeking an Engineering Manager to lead a high-performing team working on advanced transducer & acoustic technologies.

Qualifications
* Proven experience managing engineering teams, ideally in acoustics, audio systems, or automotive speaker technologies.

* Ability to communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
* A collaborative mindset and a passion for nurturing talent and driving innovation.
