About The Position

The role is essential for ongoing work in process characterization, validation, and the implementation of new equipment and tooling—including sealer, overmolding, stringing machine, lasers, automated cutting, welding, stripping, among others. Without this replacement, these projects may face delays or resource gaps that could impact their successful execution. This, in turn, could jeopardize our ability to increase manufacturing capacity and ultimately affect our capability to supply product to our patients. This role will also support activities related to manufacturing transfers, new product introductions and strategic projects.
