Sr. Product Development Engineer

At Wendover Art Group, we do not just design products, we figure out how to make ideas real and how to manufacture them repeatedly at the highest standards of quality, design, and cost.

We are looking for a Senior Product Engineer who thrives at the intersection of product design, engineering, materials, manufacturing, and problem solving.

You will take creative concepts across signage, lighting, sculpture, mirrors, dimensional art, and custom installations and determine how they should actually be built.

You will design it, model it, prototype it, build it, test it, break it, improve it, and ultimately see it manufactured.

Working within our vertically integrated manufacturing environment, you will move directly between CAD, materials, equipment, prototypes, and the production floor to solve problems in real time.

The right person is equal parts engineer, product developer, problem solver, and hands-on builder, someone who gets energized when the answer isn't obvious and takes ownership of figuring it out.
