Work Flexibility: Onsite
What we want:
The MIM Engineer will lead technical efforts to introduce new medical device products using Metal Injection Molding (MIM) technology and ensure successful scale-up for high-volume production. This role combines strong mechanical engineering expertise with deep knowledge of mold design metal injection molding and hands-on manufacturing experience. The engineer will partner across multiple manufacturing sites and with cross-functional teams to deliver robust compliant and cost-effective processes that meet stringent medical device standards and high-volume output requirements.
Key Responsibilities:
- Collaborate with R&D and Design Engineering to evaluate MIM feasibility for new products.
- Drive Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) reviews for MIM components.
- Develop and optimize MIM processes for scalability and efficiency in high-volume production environments.
- Implement automation strategies and cycle time reduction initiatives to meet production targets.
- Troubleshoot manufacturing issues and implement corrective actions during ramp-up and steady-state production.
- Process Development & Validation:
- Execute IQ/OQ/PQ validation protocols to ensure compliance with FDA and ISO 13485 standards.
- Establish robust process controls and capability studies for high-volume production.
- Lead mold design activities for new product components ensuring precision durability and repeatability for high-volume runs.
- Collaborate with suppliers on tooling fabrication qualification and preventive maintenance programs.
- Partner with Advanced Technology Manufacturing Quality and Supply Chain teams for seamless technology transfer.
- Provide technical support during pilot builds scale-up and continuous improvement initiatives.
- Risk Management & Documentation:
- Conduct PFMEA and implement mitigation strategies for high-volume production risks.
- Maintain DHF and DMR documentation for regulatory compliance.
- Drive Lean and Six Sigma initiatives to reduce scrap improve yield and optimize cycle times.
- Drive design transfer and design review activities required for new product launches
Minimum Qualifications:
- Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering
- 4 years in mechanical process or manufacturing engineering.
- Hands-on experience in high-volume manufacturing environments preferably medical devices.
Preferred Certifications:
- Metal injection molding mold design or investment casting.
- Expertise in MIM processes and tooling design for high-volume production
- GD&T Six Sigma Green Belt or ASME standards knowledge.
- Proven track record in NPI and technology transfer in a regulated industry.
- Proficiency in CAD software (SolidWorks Creo)
- Familiarity with validation protocols and regulatory compliance (FDA ISO 13485).
