Job description:

 

Turning uncertainty into knowledge. Turning knowledge into future solutions.

At Ariston Group, innovation starts long before a product reaches the market. It begins with understanding what is possible, exploring emerging technologies, and generating the knowledge that shapes future products and solutions.

 

As a Research Stream / Project Leader, you will lead complex research initiatives across strategic technology domains, connecting experimentation, modeling and multidisciplinary expertise to transform uncertainty into structured, reusable knowledge.
This is not a traditional project role. You will combine project leadership with a research mindset, creating the conditions for multidisciplinary teams to explore, learn and progressively converge toward knowledge that can enable future products and technologies.

What you’ll do

  • Lead and coordinate complex, multidisciplinary research projects and streams, involving internal functions, universities and external partners 
  • Coordinate experiments, simulations and technical investigations, ensuring that activities are connected to clear knowledge gaps and research objectives 
  • Connect Research, Development, Simulation, Manufacturing / Industrial Engineering, Quality, and external research partners 
  • Guide projects toward the generation of structured, reusable engineering knowledge, such as models, trade-off curves, feasibility maps and reference frameworks 
  • Support teams in exploring alternatives, understanding trade-offs and progressively converging through evidence 
  • Translate complex findings into clear insights that support evidence-based decisions for future products and technologies 
  • Facilitate collaboration across multidisciplinary teams and research ecosystems 

 

What we’re looking for

  • Master’s degree in Engineering (PhD is a plus) 
  • At least 4 years of experience coordinating research and/or product development projects, preferably funded projects and/or projects involving universities and external partners 
  • Experience working across multidisciplinary teams and functions; exposure to Product Development, Manufacturing / Industrial Engineering and Quality is a plus 
  • Strong technical background and curiosity across engineering domains. Experience in materials, hydraulics or domestic hot water applications is particularly relevant; knowledge of energy systems, heat transfer and thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, acoustics, electronics or control systems is a plus 
  • Strong project management, systems-thinking, analytical and problem-solving skills 
  • A research and exploratory mindset: ability to operate in uncertain environments and manage projects so that learning is progressively transformed into structured and reusable knowledge 
  • Hands-on attitude and interest in research 
  • Willingness to work with Lean / Agile project management approaches; PMP certification is a plus 
  • Fluent English and Italian 


Why join us?
This is not a traditional project role.
It’s an opportunity to explore technologies before they become products, influence strategic decisions, and help create the knowledge that powers Ariston Group’s future innovations.
