Purpose

An engineering professional who applies scientific knowledge, engineering knowledge, mathematics, and ingenuity to complete assignments related to a specific technical field or discipline.

Responsibilities

• Responsibilities of this engineering grade level inherently include and expand upon the responsibilities established for lower engineering grade levels.
• Responsible for compliance with applicable policies and procedures.
• Plans and conducts small- to medium-size assigned packaging engineering projects may include developing packaging designs, assessing supplier changes or capabilities, packaging equipment interface, testing protocols, and supporting investigations.
• Supports and coordinates with cross functional teams to align development and implementation strategies for packaging changes or solutions.
• Independently executes the design of packaging solutions by applying standard engineering theories, concepts, and techniques within the discipline. Independently investigates, conducts tests or experiments.
• Improves methods/designs/processes. Recognizes and implements good ideas/innovations/costs reductions; consistently generates/adopts original solutions to problems and reduces them to practices.
• Creates and implements package component specifications and technical documentation.
• Mentors others by sharing technical expertise and providing feedback and guidance. Resolves underlying problems. Identifies full range of customer/client needs and proposes solutions to address them; makes alterations in products or services to better meet (recognized or unrecognized) customer need.
