Position: Engineering Team Leader

Southworth hires for the long term. You start small and build a foundation. Eventually, I was moved into projects to build skills and take more responsibility. I had the opportunity to be a team leader, with 5-6 people on a team. As a team leader, you coordinate projects, answer to higher ups and get it done. Now I’m the one managing. The opportunities at Southworth are endless. It’s really a place for someone who has initiative.
