Original job description

Position Summary

The VP of Engineering owns the Sennos product engineering group - hardware, mechanical, and R&D engineering; application software (API, database, web, and mobile); software infrastructure; and program management - and is accountable for its structure, health, performance, and delivery. Reporting to the CTO, this role combines people leadership, technical strategy, and cross-functional execution to take Sennos sensing products from early research through validated design and into reliable, scalable production, and to deliver the software customers use to see and act on their data. The VPE establishes operating rhythms, removes blockers, and creates an environment where teams can innovate and execute against aggressive quality and business targets.

The VPE leads the Principal Engineer, the Application Engineering Manager, the Program Manager, and the Production Manager. This is a leadership role that stays close to the work - the VPE is involved in design reviews, test results, build issues, and field returns, and makes sound technical calls quickly.

Responsibilities

People Leadership

Own the structure, health, and performance of the product engineering group across engineering, software, and program management
Directly lead and coach each direct report; set clear goals, expectations, and development plans for each
Coach and develop managers in the group as people leaders
Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, psychological safety, and continuous improvement
Build and lead the engineering bench - own hiring plans across hardware, mechanical, R&D, product engineering, application software, Python, DevOps, and program management; maintain a high bar for talent at every level
Drive team development and retention - identify skill gaps, invest in training and internal growth, and own performance management and promotion decisions
Own org design as the group scales - define when new leadership layers are needed, develop internal candidates, and build a bench that grows with the business

Research & New Product Development

Partner with the CTO and hardware product owner on hardware technology strategy - provide engineering perspective on sensing feasibility, technical risk, and development cost as the roadmap is set
Hold the Hardware Engineering Manager accountable for R&D exploration, NPI execution, and stage-gate exit criteria; stay close enough to the work to make sound calls on scope, schedule, and technical risk
Ensure prototype learnings, failure modes, and test data are documented and carried into production-ready designs and processes - this is an engineering discipline the VPE enforces, not delegates away

Technical Standards & Product Delivery

Align with Product on design, systems architecture, and hardware, firmware, and software integration
Ensure the test, calibration, and characterization strategy for the full sensor suite is owned and executed by the right people - standards set by the Principal Engineer, execution owned by the Hardware Engineering Manager - and hold both accountable for rigor and outcomes
Manage trade-offs between performance, cost, manufacturability, and schedule to deliver systems that are robust, safe, reliable, and scalable at volume
Establish and own the processes that drive delivery - design phases, prototyping, testing, manufacturing readiness, and schedule confidence
Own the engineering response to field performance data - direct the Principal Engineer to triage field returns and re-characterization findings, and hold the team accountable for closing design and process improvements

Application Software

Own delivery of the Sennos application - API, database, front-end web application, and mobile app - through the Application Engineering Manager
Partner with Product to turn the application roadmap into realistic plans, and hold the team accountable for shipping on schedule
Manage release practices across web and mobile, including mobile app store releases, so customers receive dependable updates

Software, DevOps & Infrastructure

Own build, deployment, and infrastructure outcomes - CI/CD, environments, monitoring, reliability, and security - through the DevOps Engineer, with the Principal Engineer setting the technical standards

Program Management & Delivery

Through the Program Manager, run cross-functional programs with clear scope, schedules, milestones, dependencies, and risk registers
Maintain a single, visible view of program status and commitments across engineering and application software
Hold regular program reviews that surface risks early and drive decisions on scope, schedule, and resources

Manufacturing Readiness

Hold the Hardware Engineering Manager accountable for manufacturing readiness - DFM complete, build SOPs written, test fixtures built, traceability in place, and operator training done before release to production; the VPE owns the outcome of the handoff, the HEM owns its execution
Stay close to production output, yield, and quality data through the Production Manager - escalate and resource issues that require engineering involvement, and use field returns and re-characterization data to drive design improvements
Own function budgets, NRE forecasts, tooling costs, software licensing, and infrastructure costs

Cross-Functional Alignment & Executive Communication

Partner with Product, Quality, Regulatory, Operations, and the Production Manager to translate business goals into executable engineering strategies and roadmaps
Work with Sales and Finance so that customer commitments, production plans, and cost forecasts are realistic and aligned
Report engineering health to the CTO and executive team - roadmap delivery, schedule confidence, quality, and cost; production health is reported by the Production Manager
Represent engineering at the executive and board level, communicating technical trade-offs, manufacturability constraints, and cost implications

Required Qualifications

Education:

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field; advanced degree preferred

Experience:

10+ years of hardware, mechanical engineering, or manufacturing experience with significant people leadership
Demonstrated track record scaling hardware and manufacturing from concept through high-volume production
Expertise in mechanical design, systems architecture, design for manufacturing, and product validation
Experience leading teams across mechanical, electrical, software, manufacturing, and supply chain disciplines
Ability to manage complex trade-offs between performance, cost, manufacturability, and schedule
Expertise in product validation, testing, and regulatory compliance
Proficiency in design tools (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or equivalent) and simulation software (FEA, CFD)
Prior experience owning supplier relationships and managing supply chain risk
Experience working closely with a production or manufacturing operations team as a peer or upstream engineering leader, with clear handoff practices between engineering and production
Experience leading or working closely with software and DevOps teams, including modern development practices (CI/CD, automated testing, cloud infrastructure)
Experience overseeing customer-facing software products, such as cloud APIs and databases, web applications, and mobile apps
Hands-on background in sensor test, calibration, or measurement instrumentation development
Experience leading engineering in high-growth, high-complexity, or transformation environments
Comfortable engaging with executive leadership and boards on technical strategy and trade-offs

Skills:

Hardware systems design and architecture
Software development lifecycle and DevOps practices
Leading managers of software teams
Design for manufacturing (DFM) and product validation
Engineering program and portfolio management
Cross-functional leadership and stakeholder communication
Strategic thinking with bias for execution
Data-driven decision-making and KPI management

Certifications/Licenses:

No specific certifications required; PMP, Six Sigma, or equivalent a plus

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in fermentation, biotech, industrial sensing, or adjacent hardware-intensive industries
Familiarity with regulatory environments (FDA, ISO, CE) relevant to sensing or measurement products
Experience building engineering orgs from early-stage through scale (sub-100 to 200+ employees)
MBA or advanced technical degree

Physical Requirements and Work Environment

This role is primarily office-based with occasional visits to production and lab environments.

Ability to sit/stand for extended periods
Ability to occasionally lift up to 25 pounds
Ability to navigate production floor and lab
Occasional travel to manufacturing partners, suppliers, and customer sites
