As the Engineering Design Sustainability Lead, you will shape how sustainability is embedded into global engineering decisions across our transformer business. This is a highly visible, strategic role where engineering excellence meets environmental responsibility. You will lead the shift from downstream sustainability activities to design‑led outcomes, ensuring product‑level carbon reduction, material optimization, and environmental performance are built into every design choice from the outset. You will work across global engineering teams to translate sustainability ambitions into measurable, auditable product outcomes -balancing cost, safety, quality, and performance. With increasing expectations from customers, regulators, and stakeholders for credible product‑level data, your work will directly support compliance, ESG reporting, and long‑term business resilience. If you thrive at the intersection of engineering, data, and sustainability and enjoy influencing without direct authority - this role offers a unique opportunity to shape the future of sustainable product design at scale. How you’ll make an impact Define and drive a global, design‑led sustainability strategy within Engineering. Embed sustainability into engineering standards, processes, and decision frameworks. Reduce product‑level carbon footprint through smart design, material, and architecture choices. Establish sustainability targets, KPIs, and traceable product‑level data at BOM level. Partner across engineering, R&D, supply chain, digital and operations teams globally. Strengthen governance, reporting, and audit‑ready sustainability metrics. Build capability and foster ownership of sustainable design within engineering teams. Translate regulatory and customer sustainability expectations into engineering requirements. Responsible to ensure compliance with applicable external and internal regulations, procedures, and guidelines. Your background Master’s degree or PhD in Engineering or a closely related sustainability discipline. 10+ years of engineering experience, including 5+ years in sustainability‑focused roles. Proven success delivering design‑led sustainability or product carbon reduction initiatives. Strong knowledge of lifecycle assessment, sustainable materials, and carbon accounting. Experience leading global, cross‑functional initiatives and influencing senior stakeholders. Strong analytical mindset with a data‑driven approach to decision‑making.
