• Troubleshoot customer issues related to tubing assemblies used in pharmaceutical and biologics manufacturing.
• Assist with preparing accurate and timely quotes for custom single‑use assemblies.
• Identify and document correct supplier part numbers and ensure their accuracy within drawings and internal systems.
• Support continuous improvement across the tubing assembly workflow, including purchasing, quoting, and supplier component management.
• Work closely with and learn from a senior product design engineer with decades of industry experience and multiple patented products.

Requirements

• Minimum 3+ years of relevant engineering experience, preferably in bioprocessing, single‑use systems, or assembly‑based manufacturing.
• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Biotechnology, or a related technical field (strongly preferred).
• Proficiency with CAD drawing software is required; SolidWorks experience is a strong plus.
• Familiarity with sterile manufacturing environments or ISO 9001:2015‑certified organizations is preferred.
