Job Description
Engineering Manager
Noble Plastics
About the Engineering Team
Our Engineering Department is where process design meets production reality. We design, implement, and improve everything that flow out to our plant floor—molds, molding machines, robotics, tooling, automation, and the systems that tie it all together.
Engineering works side-by-side with Production, Quality, and Sales to ensure ideas are feasible, scalable, and profitable—without losing sight of quality or craftsmanship.
The Role
We're looking for an Engineering Manager who genuinely enjoys making things, leading technical teams, and designing systems that work beautifully at scale. You'll provide both technical direction and people leadership, helping engineers and technicians grow while ensuring projects move smoothly from concept to production.
You'll set standards, evaluate feasibility, manage risk, and create clarity—balancing big-picture thinking with day-to-day execution. Just as importantly, you'll help shape a team culture that reflects Noble Plastics' values: collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement.
This position reports directly to the Operations Manager.
What You'll Do
Lead, mentor, and develop a team of Engineers, Designers, and Technicians
Guide technical decisions while supporting professional growth and career development
Plan, review, and manage projects from concept through launch
Evaluate team capacity and proactively close skill or resource gaps
Drive excellence across processes, designs, and automation
Review and approve project scopes, ensuring feasibility and alignment with business goals
Develop and manage the Engineering Department budget
Why This Role Is Different
You'll design systems that actually get built
You'll work in a modern, highly automated production environment
You'll have real influence over how engineering, automation, and manufacturing evolve
You'll lead people—not just projects
If you want a role where engineering leadership is creative, practical, and deeply connected to the factory floor, this is it.
