Position Overview:

Dayton-Granger, Inc. (DG) is a third-generation, family-owned aerospace manufacturer that has specialized in antennas, lightning protection systems, and electrostatic components for commercial and military aircraft worldwide for over 82 years. What makes DG unique is that engineering, testing, and manufacturing all occur under one roof—allowing for close collaboration, deep technical expertise, and fast response to customer needs.

The Marketing Engineer plays a critical, customer-facing role in driving new business opportunities and expanding adoption of DG's aerospace and aviation product portfolio. This role sits at the intersection of engineering, business development, and marketing—requiring strong technical credibility, excellent communication skills, and the ability to build long-term customer relationships.

This is not a traditional desk-based role. The Marketing Engineer will spend significant time engaging customers directly through on-site visits, trade shows, and industry events, representing DG's technical capabilities and products with confidence and professionalism. If you enjoy combining deep technical knowledge with relationship-building, travel, and early-stage opportunity development, this role offers high visibility and meaningful impact on the company's growth.

+ Represent DG at trade shows and conferences, supporting booth presence, technical discussions, and customer networking

+ Provide early-stage technical support and coordination during opportunity capture and program development

+ Prepare and deliver customer-facing technical presentations, product briefings, marketing materials, and trade show content

+ Maintain accurate documentation of leads, opportunities, customer interactions, and follow-up actions; provide timely reporting

+ Collaborate cross-functionally with Engineering, Business Development, Marketing, and other internal teams to support product positioning and business growth

+ Perform additional tasks as assigned by management

+ Follow all DG safety, quality, and compliance procedures

Required Qualifications:

+ Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering (Master's Degree strongly preferred)

+ Minimum of 10 years of professional experience in RF engineering, RF systems engineering, antenna systems, or a closely related aerospace or defense technical role

+ Strong working knowledge of antenna parameters, RF performance characteristics, and aerospace/aviation industry terminology

+ Proven ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly and effectively to customers, program stakeholders, and internal teams

+ Strong verbal and technical writing skills, including customer-facing and program-related documentation

+ Proficiency in PowerPoint, including development and delivery of professional, customer-facing technical presentations

+ Ability to represent DG's products and technical capabilities with credibility and professionalism in customer meetings, site visits, and trade show environments

+ Willingness and ability to travel extensively (minimum of 18 weeks per calendar year)

+ Valid U.S. passport or ability to obtain one prior to start date

+ U.S. Citizenship required due to access to technical data subject to U.S. Government contract restrictions
