Position Summary:
We are seeking a forward-thinking Packaging Engineer to develop best-in-class, sustainable, and consumer-centric packaging solutions across our leading portfolio of consumer brands. In this role, you'll harness the power of digital tools-including AI-assisted concept development, packaging simulation, and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tools-to elevate packaging performance, reduce environmental impact, and drive innovation.
This role is ideal for engineers who are passionate about design excellence, continuous learning, and making a measurable difference in both consumer experience and environmental sustainability.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Design and deliver packaging solutions for new product development (NPD) and product maintenance programs-from concept through commercialization.
  • Leverage digital and AI-enabled tools to accelerate ideation, structural design, and testing; contribute to the development of packaging design prompts, automation, or predictive models where applicable.
  • Use Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tools to evaluate and improve environmental performance of packaging concepts across materials, formats, and regions.
  • Conduct packaging validation using ISTA, ASTM, and internal standards; analyze data to inform design decisions and improve robustness.
  • Lead productivity initiatives by identifying and implementing packaging cost savings through material optimization, automation support, or simplification.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with R&D, Marketing, Supply Chain, Regulatory, and Procurement teams to ensure packaging aligns with functional requirements, branding, regional and operational requirements.
  • Maintain accurate and timely packaging documentation, including drawings and specifications in PLM systems like Windchill.
  • Participate in technical forums, ideation sessions, and best-practice sharing across regions and functions.
  • Lead packaging status updates, risk assessments and recovery plans for assigned projects.
  • Stay informed on emerging packaging technologies, sustainability trends, and regulatory impacts.

Qualifications:
Required:
  • Bachelor's degree in Packaging Science, Mechanical Engineering, or related discipline.
  • Minimum 2 years of experience in packaging design and development within a consumer goods environment.
  • Proven ability to apply packaging fundamentals across materials (paperboard, plastic, flexible, etc.) and formats.
  • Exposure to digital packaging tools such as Artios CAD, Cape Pack, TOPS, LCA tools, or equivalent.
  • Interest in AI tools or automation (e.g., ChatGPT, simulation software, design algorithms).
  • Strong communication, project management, and cross-functional collaboration skills.

Preferred:
  • Hands-on experience with LCA software and sustainability metrics.
  • Familiarity with Amazon ISTA 6A/SIOC protocols and eCommerce-specific packaging.
  • Experience with SAP, Windchill, or other enterprise data systems.
  • Experience working with global or regional packaging suppliers.
