The R&D Project Leader will serve as the central figure coordinating research and development efforts between the local site, Saint-Gobain's global R&D centers (Northborough, Shanghai, and Germany), and internal teams like the Application Engineering "Capture Team" and the onsite "Tech Center." This role will be pivotal in smoothly transitioning new developments from the concept stage to full production, while also maintaining comprehensive oversight of all North American R&D activities.

In addition to leading multiple high-priority projects, the R&D Project Leader will track and report on R&D resource allocation and project performance. Acting as a primary contact for North American R&D efforts, this individual will represent the regional activities on a global scale and foster the local R&D network.
