Overview

The Costing Engineer leads and supports quotation and costing activities for medical device projects by combining engineering understanding with cost analysis and cross-functional coordination. This role reviews RFQs, drawings, specifications, and process requirements to build accurate quotations and assess manufacturability.

The position works closely with engineering, production, quality, supply chain, procurement, and BD teams to ensure quotations are technically sound, commercially competitive, and aligned with plant capabilities, customer requirements, and business priorities.

· Ensure proposed manufacturing approaches are practical, cost-effective, and aligned with operational capability.

4. Supplier & Supply Chain Support

· Work with procurement and suppliers to obtain accurate technical quotations for materials, tooling, outsourced processes, and purchased components.

· Review supplier proposals for technical compliance, lead time, MOQ, feasibility, and cost competitiveness.

· Support sourcing decisions by comparing process options, supplier capabilities, and alternative materials or technologies.

5. Validation, Sterilization & NRE

· Ensure costing includes relevant NRE items such as molds, fixtures, jigs, gauges, sample builds, and engineering trials.

· Consider IQ/OQ/PQ, process validation, sample qualification, documentation, and compliance requirements in the costing model.

· Include sterilization costs such as EtO, Gamma, and E-Beam, covering both validation and recurring production requirements.

6. Cost Submission & Improvement

· Prepare and review cost breakdowns for management and BD teams within required timelines.

· Present key assumptions, risks, and technical considerations clearly to support decision-making and customer discussion.

· Maintain costing data, templates, and lessons learned to improve quotation accuracy, consistency, and team efficiency.

7. Additional Tasks

· Take part in projects or ad hoc tasks assigned by management.
