Position Summary
The VP of Engineering owns the Sennos product engineering group — hardware, mechanical, and R&D engineering; application software (API, database, web, and mobile); software infrastructure; and program management — and is accountable for its structure, health, performance, and delivery. Reporting to the CTO, this role combines people leadership, technical strategy, and cross-functional execution to take Sennos sensing products from early research through validated design and into reliable, scalable production, and to deliver the software customers use to see and act on their data. The VPE establishes operating rhythms, removes blockers, and creates an environment where teams can innovate and execute against aggressive quality and business targets.
The VPE leads the Principal Engineer, the Application Engineering Manager, the Program Manager, and the Production Manager. This is a leadership role that stays close to the work — the VPE is involved in design reviews, test results, build issues, and field returns, and makes sound technical calls quickly.
