Engineering & Commercial Lead (Level Based on Experience)
About NuWave:
NuWave is applying industrial microwave technology to solve real-world material and process challenges—across industries where conventional approaches have remained largely unchanged.
We are now transitioning from deep R&D into commercial scale and are looking to strengthen our team with individuals who can help bridge engineering, application development, and customer execution.
The Role:
This is a hybrid engineering + commercial role, focused on taking complex technical solutions and helping bring them into real industrial deployment.
Depending on experience (hence the broad salary range), this role can be structured as:
-
A senior, highly independent position, or
-
A growth role for an emerging engineer looking to build into a commercial-facing technical leader.
You will be involved across the full lifecycle:
-
Early customer discussions.
-
Feasibility and testing.
-
System design and configuration.
-
Deployment, commissioning, and support.
What You’ll Be Doing:
-
Work directly with customers to understand materials, processes, and requirements.
-
Translate technical challenges into structured solutions and system concepts.
-
Support feasibility testing, data interpretation, and process development.
-
Contribute to system design, including application-specific configurations.
-
Participate in installation, commissioning, and troubleshooting of industrial systems.
-
Bridge communication between engineering, operations, and commercial efforts.
What We’re Looking For: We are intentionally open to a range of candidates, including:
Engineering-Led Commercial Operators:
-
Experience in technical sales or customer-facing engineering roles.
-
Comfortable owning discussions and translating technical solutions into commercial outcomes.
Microwave / RF / High-Power System Specialists:
Early-Career Engineers (High Potential):
-
Background in engineering (mechanical, electrical, physics, or similar).
-
Exposure to thermal systems, process engineering, RF, or industrial equipment.
-
Strong interest in learning and building a career in a specialized, emerging field.
Core Capabilities (Valued Across All Levels):
-
Experience working with industrial systems or equipment (design, testing, or field work).
-
Ability to read drawings, schematics, and work across disciplines.
-
Strong problem-solving mindset with comfort operating in ambiguity.
-
Interest in hands-on work, including system setup, testing, or commissioning.
-
Clear communicator across both technical and non-technical audiences.
Why Join NuWave:
-
Work with a highly differentiated and underutilized technology.
-
Be part of a company moving from development real-world scaling.
-
Contribute to systems that go from concept pilot commercial deployment.
-
Operate in a small, high-impact team where your contributions are visible.
