About Rivian
Rivian is on a mission to keep the world adventurous forever. This goes for the emissions-free Electric Adventure Vehicles we build, and the curious, courageous souls we seek to attract.
As a company, we constantly challenge what’s possible, never simply accepting what has always been done. We reframe old problems, seek new solutions and operate comfortably in areas that are unknown. Our backgrounds are diverse, but our team shares a love of the outdoors and a desire to protect it for future generations.
Role Summary
The Facilities Production Design and Engineering team develops and oversees the design through construction quality of Rivian’s global portfolio of production facilities. We are a diverse team of Architects and Engineers (MEP, FP, Structural & Civil), Technical Subject Matter Experts and Building Specialists that come together to build world-class facilities that enable Rivian to scale. We challenge the status quo and deliver innovative, cost-efficient solutions to complex problems across Rivian’s existing and proposed vehicle production facilities.
We are seeking a highly experienced and strategic Senior Manager of Design Managers to lead and oversee a team of Design Managers responsible for shaping and delivering world-class design solutions across multiple production sites. This leadership role will ensure the successful execution of design initiatives, maintaining consistency with Rivian's standards, vision, and mission. As a Senior Manager, you will provide guidance, mentorship, and direction to the Design Managers, ensuring high-quality design outcomes and seamless collaboration with both internal and external stakeholders.
The Senior Manager of Design Managers will also be responsible for overseeing design processes, optimizing workflows, and ensuring that design objectives are met on time, within scope, and in alignment with Rivian’s strategic goals. This is a leadership role requiring strong management, communication, and problem-solving skills to oversee complex projects and inspire design excellence within the team.
