Job Description:
No Agencies - Principals Only Need ApplyJob Title: Technical
Project ManagerWho is Gener8?Gener8 is a contract engineering firm
that commercializes products. Established companies come to us to
develop their next-generation systems, but the bulk of our business
comes from Startup companies that entrust their entire future to
our ability to take an idea and make it a reality. From research to
manufacturing, we figure out a way to make it happen. There is an
increasing trend for startups to outsource their engineering, and
if the product is difficult, many end up here. We have different
studios (teams) for different product categories and typically have
over 100 product development projects going on at any given time.
We are a matrix organization that is constantly saturated with
every form of technology that exists and so everyone here works
hard and gets lots of exposure to different projects. We merge
Optics, Mechanics, Electronics, Fluidics, Thermodynamics, Software,
and everything else to solve problems and design systems that few
other groups would be able to take on. All of our managers are
technical. All of our team members are hands-on and apply
themselves. All of our projects are hard. All of our timelines are
aggressive. We are not afraid.The Medical StudioWe are growing and
so we are always keeping an eye out for great talent, but this
particular job description is for the Medical Engineering studio.
Many of the most interesting projects are for medical applications
and this studio specializes in those applications. We do all the
hard engineering but with the added twist of understanding some
biology and we design our systems to be ISO 13485 compliant. Gener8
will take on Class III and Pre Market Approval (PMA) projects. We
have audited and certified processes and manufacturing
capabilities. The Med Tech team knows how to leverage our
infrastructure to deliver innovative products that advance medicine
and improve people's lives.What is this Role?Many of our projects
lack clarity in the initial phases and you will be the one to clear
that up. These initial phases are mostly technical and then
transition into a more traditional project driven by budget and
schedule. In these phases, you will be the face of the company to
the customer and will build trust in that relationship. You will
need to be technical enough to participate in those early
conversations. In smaller projects, the Project Manager may act as
the Lead Systems Engineer and vice versa. We are a matrix
organization, and in some cases, you will internally "recruit" the
team to work on the project. You have to be good enough to be
respected by the team so that they want to be part of your project.
Once the project is through the early phases, you will likely hand
it off to another department to come back to a new project in its
infant state. You will manage 1-to 2 projects at a time depending
on the complexity. Like all of our team, you too will be hands-on.
We don't yell at our engineers; we listen to them and help them. Be
prepared to help your team. You have enough technical experience to
understand why that is important.Responsibilities:
