Are you an engineering leader with experience in advanced materials and manufacturing environments? Business Unit Medical, within Alleima, is a global leader in ultra-fine wire and precision material solutions used in medical and microelectronic applications. This role focuses on the development and industrialization of material-based components; not software or finished medical devices working at the intersection of materials science, process engineering, and manufacturing scale up. Join us to lead innovation in high-performance wire solutions that support life-changing technologies.
Relocation to Palm Coast, FL required.
Your Role
As a Manager of R&D Engineering, you will lead a team responsible for the design, development, and industrialization of physical medical products. You will bridge R&D, manufacturing, and commercial teams to bring new material-based solutions to market.
