Own the Plant. Engineer the Process. Deliver at Scale.

Why This Role Matters:

Step into a hands-on, high-visibility role where you own the plant engineering function for a well-established and still growing medical device manufacturer.

Full plant engineering accountability: manufacturing, extrusion, injection molding, converting, machine shop, and technical teams

Automation and process improvement initiatives to increase efficiency and reduce costs

Facilities, infrastructure, and site performance, including safety leadership as the Company Safety Officer

Cross-functional collaboration with R&D, Quality, Supply Chain, and Operations

Capital planning, projects, and plant expansion

Lead plant engineering and manufacturing process development (IQ/OQ/PQ)

Implement lean manufacturing and continuous improvement programs

Troubleshoot equipment, tooling, and process issues on the floor

Ensure compliance with FDA 21 CFR 820, ISO 13485, ISO 9001

Drive automation, cost reduction, and performance improvements

Build and mentor a high-performing engineering team

Who You Are:

Hands-on, strategic engineering leader with ownership mentality

Experienced in regulated manufacturing environments, preferably medical devices

Skilled in automation, process scaling, and capital projects

Strong collaborator and communicator across functions

Comfortable driving change in a fast-moving, resource-conscious environment

Manager, Plant Engineering - Medical Device Manufacturing Qualifications:

Bachelor's in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Biomedical, or related)

7+ years in manufacturing/process/plant engineering, 2+ years in leadership role.

Experience with injection molding and/or extrusion preferred

Lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, CAD (SolidWorks), ERP systems

AI and 3D printing experience a plus

Impact You'll Make:

Scale plant operations to support growth and product quality

Deliver measurable cost savings through automation and process improvement

Lead a high-performing team shaping the future of medical device manufacturing
