Manager, Applications Engineering

Every day in 25 countries, we (9,000 people) create the sustainable solutions the world needs by inventing the technologies of tomorrow across the entire spectrum of industry: from metallurgy to advanced logistics, from cement plants to the tech industry, from the IoT to aerospace. By Joining Fives, you'll become an entrepreneur who is involved in the design and management of the project from start to finish. Come and work with a group of passionate women and men, proud to be pioneers and above all proud to make the world move forward.

The Manager owns engineering capacity and the capability to do the work.

This seat answers for whether the engineering function can carry the pipeline: headcount against it, the cost of running the function, hiring, and the promotion decisions that turn engineers into reviewers.

It also owns the capability plan: which skills the function needs, and the training and tool investment behind them. The estimating and design method itself stays with Senior and Principal Engineer. This seat funds and staffs the standard; it does not write it.

It shares ownership of the solution methodology and the technology roadmap with the Manager, Solutions Engineering: which technology classes and third-party partners the department can offer, and the analysis practice behind the concepts. The two seats hold it together, so what we can design and what we can price stay the same list.

Travel to customer offices, sites and other Fives entities as required, typically under 20%.
