Become our new Team Lead Hardware (Research & Development) 

As Team Lead Hardware (R&D), you lead and develop our multidisciplinary hardware engineering team, bringing together mechanical and electrical engineering expertise to create integrated, high-quality solutions for our bioprocessing products. 

You combine people leadership with hands-on engineering contribution. Together with project teams, Product Management, Quality, Operations, Service, suppliers, and other Getinge sites, you help deliver robust, compliant, and customer-centric products from early concept through lifecycle support. 

Your challenge: 

In this role, you help shape the future of Hardware Engineering within R&D. You create a team environment where engineers take ownership, collaborate across disciplines, make transparent technical decisions, and deliver predictable, high-quality outcomes. 

You play a key role in strengthening the R&D organization for the future by developing people, improving ways of working, and helping the team deliver high-quality results in a structured and reliable way. 

What will you do? 

• Lead, coach, and develop a multidisciplinary hardware engineering team of mechanical and electrical engineers, including performance, development, onboarding, and capability building. 
• Foster a collaborative, accountable, and performance-driven team environment where engineers take ownership of technical quality, engineering standards, and reliable delivery. 
• Support project teams with planning, prioritization, resource allocation, technical decision-making, risk management, and transparent communication on progress and capacity. 
• Contribute hands-on to mechanical or electrical design work, prototypes, design reviews, and complex technical problem solving. 
• Ensure consistent engineering practices, tools, documentation, and compliance with applicable standards, regulations, and quality processes. 
• Strengthen system-level and lifecycle thinking by connecting mechanical, electrical, quality, manufacturability, serviceability, cost, and customer needs. 
• Represent hardware engineering in cross-functional forums and collaborate with Product Management, Quality, Operations, Service, suppliers, and other Getinge sites. 
• Promote structured product development, robust design practices, technical reviews, and continuous improvement in the hardware engineering team. 

Knowledge, skills and experience  

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field. 
• Minimum 5 years of experience in hardware engineering, preferably within mechanical and/or electrical product development. 
• Minimum 3 years of people leadership experience, with responsibility for coaching, performance management, talent development, and building high-performing teams. 
• Experience leading multidisciplinary engineering teams and delivering project objectives related to quality, timelines, and execution. 
• Strong leadership, communication, and change management skills, with the ability to set clear expectations, foster accountability, and promote collaboration. 
• Technical expertise in both mechanical and electrical engineering, with the ability to support integrated product solutions and contribute to system-level decision-making.  
• Solid understanding of product development processes, including design controls, technical documentation, design reviews, lifecycle management, and continuous improvement of engineering practices. 
• Experience in a regulated environment and familiarity with applicable quality and compliance requirements (e.g., CE marking) is considered a plus. Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English are required.
