<p>Join us and help push the boundaries of what can be built.</p></div><h2>Purpose</h2>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">As Director, Automation & Controls Engineering, you will lead the team building the automation backbone of Divergent’s next generation of machines and factories. You will define and deliver the controls, robotics, electrical, safety, and factory automation systems that turn complex manufacturing technology into reliable, scalable, and increasingly autonomous production.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559738":240,"335559739":240,"335559740":259}"> </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="auto">This role owns both the technical direction and organizational capability required to push industrial automation forward—from first-of-kind machine development through fleet deployment and factory scale.
