Provide manufacturing/production support for new products and continuous improvement of existing products
Contribute knowledge and stay up to date on manufacturing techniques for: metals, plastics, non-wovens, laminations, formulating and structural packaging (and we know our Engineer will need to learn some of these operations on-the-job)
Help answer technical questions from: Customer Service, Technical Product Support, Marketing, Manufacturing, supply partners and customers
Technical documentation of key project decisions and design changes
Integrate with Marketing teams to support tasks to introduce new products such as:

o Product performance testing and marketing claims
o Product packaging and literature (assembly, how to use, etc.)

All other duties as assigned or directed
Adhere to New Pig’s Safety, Environmental, and Quality standards

Requirements:

Demonstrated ability to distill and capture learnings from multiple viewpoints including: customer visits/calls, market data, competitive offerings, supplier operations and other information sources
Background involving skilled trades, mechanics, equipment repair, etc. a plus
