• Build strong partnerships with target universities, engineering departments, and student organizations, ensuring a diverse and high‑quality early‑career pipeline.
• Select, coach, and prepare assignment managers; implement methods to evaluate training effectiveness and overall participant experience.
• Collaborate with business and talent teams to identify impactful projects that accelerate participant development and generate meaningful value.
• Deliver engaging learning sessions (virtual, classroom, synchronous, asynchronous) and adapt facilitation methods to meet audience needs.
• Create and manage a formal mentorship and sponsorship program, including mentor/sponsor training and onboarding.
• Meet regularly with assignment managers to track participant progress, competencies, and overall experience.
• Share best practices with global early‑career program leaders to ensure alignment and consistency.
• Develop a tailored L&D curriculum aligned with engineering capabilities and career paths.
• Coordinate all key program moments: transitions between rotations, graduation ceremonies, recognition events.
• Oversee intern conversion into full‑time roles; run weekly roundtables to build community and engagement.
• Provide insights for Organizational Talent Reviews and support ongoing career development of alumni and program graduates.
• Continuously improve onboarding, training, and participant experience based on structured feedback.
• Track KPIs such as conversion, performance, retention, and leadership progression — and present improvement recommendations to leadership.

What You Will Need

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering (mechanical, electrical, software, systems, or related).
• 8+ years of progressive engineering experience, including 3+ years in leadership or program management.
• Proven collaborative leadership and experience running talent or development programs.
• A strong passion for people development and early‑career talent.
• Advanced computer skills (Microsoft Office + engineering software tools including AI).
• Experience delivering blended learning solutions and facilitating groups.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels.

Preferred

• Global experience collaborating across cultures and cross‑functional teams.
• Strong internal network and stakeholder management capabilities.
• Experience managing remote or distributed teams.
