Principal Engineer  

About Principal Engineer
Principal Engineers are the big dogs and the mama birds of the engineering world. In this position, you’re responsible for overseeing engineering projects of all kinds. You handle deadlines, budgets, and various other managerial tasks. Leading your team or teams is your other great responsibility. Seasoned and novice Engineers alike
turn to you for direction, advice, and support as they tackle the challenges that lay before them. You draw on your knowledge and experience, as well as your big-picture view, to help guide them.

Being a Principal Engineer is like being an experienced mountain climber: you’ve made it far up the hill, but you’re still climbing with the team. Your mountain? The research, development, design, and experimentation projects assigned to you by your company. Principal Engineers live in a world partway between the hard science of engineering and the delicate art of management and leadership. You need great communications skills to interact with your superiors and subordinates. You are the conduit through which direction and feedback flow. The wellbeing of your team and the greater goals of the company are both balanced on your shoulders.
