Regional Engineering Manager at K-LOVE

Join Our Team as a Regional Engineering Manager at K-LOVE! Are you ready to lead and inspire a dynamic team of field engineers and technicians? As the Regional Engineering Manager, you'll oversee the operation and maintenance of K-LOVE's radio broadcasting facilities and satellite uplinks across your designated region. Reporting directly to the Director of Engineering, you'll ensure compliance with FCC regulations while driving excellence in our broadcasting services. If you're passionate about engineering and thrive in a leadership role, this is the perfect opportunity for you!

This position will manage and support our field engineers and tower sites in the South Central US; therefore, only candidates who reside in the South Central region of the United States will be considered.

Here's some of what you will be doing :

  • Strategic Leadership & Vision Implementation :

Proactively influence ministry culture, leading by example in demonstrating collaboration, empowerment, innovation, creativity, and service, aligning with K-LOVE's Mission and Values.

  • Contribute to long-term planning and vision implementation, identifying strategic initiatives, prioritizing efforts, and evaluating results to preserve K-LOVE's reputation for excellence.
  • Engage with the Director of Engineering and other ministry stakeholders on departmental issues, trends, and proposals for strategic initiatives.
  • Operational Oversight & Performance Management :
  • Oversee strategic planning and implementation for the regional team, focusing on Engineering goals, timelines, budgets, communication, results tracking, and celebration.

  • Assess Engineering performance against goals, providing strategic recommendations based on operational analysis, cost identification, and resource allocation.
  • Ensure robust tools and systems provide critical operational and project information, making actionable recommendations on strategic goals and constraints.
  • Develop, implement, and monitor supporting budgets, acting as a front-line approver for team purchases and project-related expenditures.
  • People Leadership & Talent Development :
  • Provide comprehensive leadership for the regional Engineering team, ensuring ministry-wide collaboration, facilitating appropriate resolution of issues, and managing competing priorities.

  • Develop and mentor staff by evaluating performance, providing targeted coaching, training, and growth opportunities.
  • Foster a learning environment where training, risk management, operational best practices, and biblical values intertwine with creative solutions.
  • Technical Acumen & Strategic Guidance :
  • Ensure K-LOVE's radio programs are broadcast to the highest quality by providing technical and staff leadership to a team chartered with installing, testing, operating, maintaining, and repairing broadcast equipment.

  • Maintain expert knowledge of FCC rules and regulations, ensuring the department and all equipment operate safely and legally.
  • Possess a thorough, expert-level understanding of Field Engineer III responsibilities and technical domains (complex air-chain, IP-based distribution, advanced microwave, LEO satellite (e.g., Starlink) technologies, and deep understanding of RF emissions and interference mitigation). This enables the ability to discern the veracity of technical problem assessments and proposed solutions from the team.
  • Continually evaluate and make recommendations for process and technical improvements through researching, designing, and developing new technologies.
  • Plan and prepare schematic drawings designed to modify and improve existing transmitter equipment, understanding technical implications.
  • Direct and coordinate equipment modification activities to prevent interruptions in transmitting operations.
  • Partner and communicate with engineers (including contract engineers) to accomplish critical objectives, overseeing these collaborations.
  • Site Management & Operational Readiness :
  • Ensure the highest level of productivity through optimal pairing of projects and staff, and efficient preparation of work schedules.

  • Occasionally make trips to remote sites for strategic oversight, significant installations, or critical assessments as required.
  • Oversee the regional on-call rotation schedule, ensuring adequate coverage and response protocols.
  • Perform other duties as required.
  • Here's some experience we are seeking :

  • Master's degree or equivalent college or technical studies in electronics, communications, or a related field; OR an equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • SBE Certification is highly desirable.
  • Minimum of 4-10+ years of comprehensive experience in broadcast electronic equipment, with a demonstrated background in troubleshooting, repairing, and maintaining complex systems.
  • Proven experience leading and managing engineering staff (including staff planning, recruitment, management, coaching, performance management, and evaluation).
  • Strong project management experience.
  • Expert knowledge and understanding of broadcast air-chain components, including intricate IP-based signal distribution systems.
  • Expert understanding of modern microwave and Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite technologies (e.g., Starlink).
  • Deep understanding of radio frequency (RF) emissions, interference mitigation, and regulatory compliance.
  • Strong understanding of networking principles (TCP / IP, routing, switching), network architecture, and common troubleshooting methodologies.
  • Proficiency in reading and interpreting electronic schematics, electrical drawings, and construction drawings.
  • Ability to carry out complex calculations in common broadcast-related formulae.
  • Proficiency with MS Office products and other common software.
  • A collaborative and flexible leadership style, with a strong service mentality.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills to develop sincere relationships and foster strong team dynamics.
  • Strong written and verbal communication and presentation skills, capable of conveying complex technical information to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Proven ability to deal with multiple, complex problems systematically and logically, thinking strategically.
  • Demonstrated commitment to the social sector with a passion for our mission and values
