Collaborate with Operations, Quality, Supply Chain, and Engineering teams to ensure packaging supports efficient product flow and product protection.
Investigate packaging-related quality issues, shipping damage, and handling concerns and implement corrective actions.
Standardize packaging solutions across product families where appropriate to improve consistency and reduce costs.
Support new product introduction activities by developing packaging requirements and validation plans.
Analyze packaging costs, material utilization, and operational efficiency to identify improvement opportunities.
Lead continuous improvement initiatives focused on damage reduction, handling efficiency, storage optimization, and packaging performance.
Support customer packaging requirements, audits, and packaging-related technical inquiries as required.

Required Qualifications:

Bachelor's degree in Packaging Science, Packaging Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
Minimum of 5 years of experience in packaging engineering supporting manufacturing environments.
Experience developing packaging solutions for precision components, medical devices, electronics, aerospace products, optics, semiconductor products, or other fragile/high-value products.
Proficiency with CAD software, preferably SolidWorks, for the design of packaging components, trays, fixtures, and handling systems.
Experience performing packaging validation testing and familiarity with ISTA, ASTM, and other industry-standard test methods.
Demonstrated ability to design custom packaging, trays, dunnage, and protective handling solutions.
Experience selecting and qualifying packaging materials including foams, plastics, engineered corrugates, protective films, and specialty materials.
Familiarity with product handling, contamination control, ESD protection, or cleanroom-compatible packaging practices is strongly preferred.
Experience creating engineering drawings, specifications, bills of material, and engineering change documentation.
Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and root-cause problem-solving skills.
Effective communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally with engineering, manufacturing, quality, and supply chain teams.
Experience supporting new product introduction (NPI), manufacturing transfer, or product launch activities is preferred.

Core Competencies:

Results-Oriented: Motivated, hard-working and ready to level up.
Curious: You never stop learning and have an insatiable desire to gain new skills and knowledge.

Works in a precision manufacturing environment supporting production operations, with regular time spent on the manufacturing floor and in engineering or office settings.
Frequent interaction with production personnel, manufacturing equipment, tooling, and assembly processes in support of troubleshooting, process development, and continuous improvement activities.
Requires prolonged periods of standing, walking, and moving throughout production areas, with occasional sitting for engineering, documentation, and project-related work.
Regular use of hands for computer work, documentation, handling components, tooling, fixtures, and measurement equipment.
Requires visual acuity for reviewing technical documentation, inspecting components and assemblies, and supporting process verification activities.
