Technical Manager Director

Client of Talentmate

We are looking for a hands-on Technical Manager to lead a multidisciplinary engineering team across mechatronics, mechanical, electronics, firmware, and electrical disciplines. This role is not just about managing from a distance, youll be actively involved in guiding technical work, solving challenges, and ensuring project managers and clients have the support they need to deliver successfully.

Why this role matters:

This is an opportunity to step into a role where your technical depth, leadership skills, and client-facing experience will directly impact project success.

Key Responsibilities:

• Provide direct, hands-on technical leadership across engineering disciplines (mechatronics, mechanical, electronics, firmware, and electrical).
• Oversee and contribute to custom hardware development, production fabrication, and AV systems integration.
• Collaborate on application development and interactive content delivery, ensuring seamless integration between hardware and software.

Requirements:

• Bachelors or Masters in Engineering (Mechatronics, Mechanical, or Electrical preferred).
• Minimum of 5 years in a technical leadership role with a track record of being actively engaged in engineering delivery (not just oversight).
• Strong background in custom hardware solutions, AV systems, and production-level fabrication.
• Experience collaborating on application development and interactive/immersive content.
• Proven ability to support project managers and work directly with clients in a technical capacity.
• Excellent problem-solving and communication skills, with the ability to explain technical issues clearly to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders.
