Lead Engineer


Complex Challenges. Smarter Solutions


Role Overview

The Lead Engineer is a senior technical leadership role responsible for delivering high‑quality, customer‑facing engineering services across the full project lifecycle - from acquisition through execution. You will coordinate and supervise the engineering scope for complex, large‑scale international projects, ensuring all technical objectives are met within the agreed scope, budget, and schedule.

 

In this role, you oversee and review engineering deliverables, drive design optimization, and ensure full compliance with relevant codes, standards, and best practices. You work closely with Design Engineering teams and cross‑functional project partners to resolve technical issues, safeguard design integrity, and secure seamless execution. As a senior expert, you elevate engineering quality across the organization by coaching others, strengthening collaboration, and contributing to the continuous development of Hilti’s engineering capabilities.

 

This position requires deep engineering expertise, strong stakeholder management, and the ability to translate complex customer requirements into robust, value‑engineered solutions. You will collaborate with global project teams, engineering hubs, and internal partners to deliver best‑in‑class outcomes. This full‑time role is available immediately and includes international collaboration and travel (approx. 20%), predominantly within Europe.

 

What you’ll do

  • Lead the full engineering scope for international projects, ensuring technical excellence, design optimization, and compliance with standards and best practices. 
  • Supervise and approve engineering deliverables from Design Engineering teams, ensuring accuracy, integration, and alignment with project requirements. 
  • Provide expert technical guidance to customers, discipline specialists, and internal stakeholders
  • Develop design guidelines and technical inputs for modelers, ensuring high‑quality documentation and consistent engineering execution. 
  • Drive QA/QC processes across all engineering activities and ensure adherence to Hilti’s engineering methodologies.
  • Coach and mentor Lead Engineer roles and contribute to the development of the broader engineering community through training, knowledge sharing, and best‑practice exchange. 
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with regional and global engineering counterparts, fostering collaboration and capability building across markets. 
  • Collaborate closely with cross‑functional partners to ensure seamless project execution and technical alignment. 
  • Act as a role model within Hilti’s engineering community, promoting continuous learning, innovation, and a culture aligned with Hilti’s core values.

What you’ll bring 

  • A Master’s degree (or equivalent) in structural, civil, or mechanical engineering, with strong technical and modelling skills. 
  • Several years of experience delivering engineering work on complex projects, ideally in a multidisciplinary or construction‑related environment. 
  • Proficiency with CAD tools, design software, and BIM‑related workflows, with the ability to ensure compliance with relevant codes and standards. 
  • Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, able to translate complex requirements into clear, optimized engineering solutions. 
  • A structured, disciplined working style with strong time‑management skills and the ability to perform under pressure. 
  • A collaborative mindset and the ability to coach, support, and positively influence others. 
  • High learning agility, curiosity, and a commitment to continuous professional development
