  • Production Support: Provide hands-on technical support to Production, Engineering, Maintenance, and Quality to resolve manufacturing challenges and maintain process performance.
  • R&D & Product Development: Lead new product and process-development projects from concept and feasibility through trials, qualification, testing, and production release.
  • Laboratory & Barrier Testing: Perform and document product testing, coordinate external barrier testing, and verify performance against customer and internal requirements.
  • Customer Technical Support: Support Sales and customers with technical questions, product approvals, samples, claims, and performance-related issues.
  • Equipment & Continuous Improvement: Support new equipment, equipment upgrades, comparative product studies, and process-improvement initiatives focused on waste reduction and efficiency.
