Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Kinexus Full time $180,000 - $220,000 per year

We are partnering with a leading Australian SME at the forefront of maritime technology. With major programs underway for the Royal Australian Navy and ongoing commercial opportunities, this is a career-defining leadership role for an experienced Engineering Manager with an R&D and electronics background.

Position Overview

As Electronics Engineering Manager, you'll step into a pivotal leadership role overseeing a growing multidisciplinary team. With a foundation in electronics R&D, you will act as the Design Authority (DA), guiding development across the full product lifecycle, from concept through to production. This is a people-focused role where you'll drive collaboration, mentor engineers, and ensure delivery of robust mission-critical systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and grow a cross-functional engineering team
  • Provide leadership, mentoring and coaching to build capability and drive innovation.
  • Act as Design Authority, ensuring design integrity across the hardware function.
  • Oversee product development from early-stage concepts through to production release.
  • Partner with stakeholders to translate requirements into engineering solutions.
  • Foster a positive, high-performance culture aligned with safety, quality, and delivery standards.

About You

  • R&D background, with a focus on electronics (not mechanical).
  • Demonstrated leadership experience, with proven success managing high-performing teams.
  • Experience across the full product lifecycle, from research and prototyping to production.
  • Background in product development within complex systems.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Eligible for an NV1 Defence Security Clearance (Australian Citizenship required).

Why Apply?

This is a unique chance to:

  • Influence the design and direction of world-leading defence technology.
  • Step into a true leadership role, less hands-on and more focused on people, culture, and outcomes.
  • Join a growing organisation with major Defence and international programs.

Next Steps

If you're an experienced Electronics Engineering Manager ready to guide a growing engineering team and shape the next generation of Defence maritime systems, we'd love to hear from you.

All applications should include your resume as a word document.
