Packaging plays a critical role in ensuring the safety, integrity, and usability of our medical devices throughout the entire product lifecycle.

You will lead technical packaging projects from concept through implementation, working closely with colleagues from Research & Development, Operations, Quality, Regulatory Affairs, Clinical Affairs, Procurement, Marketing, and external suppliers. As a technical expert, you will contribute to the evolution of our packaging platforms, engineering standards, and development processes while supporting the successful transfer, optimization, and continuous improvement of existing products across our global manufacturing network. This position offers the opportunity to influence packaging strategy, drive innovation, and shape the future of medical device packaging within Straumann Group. The role reports to the Head of Packaging, LCM SDIS & RDI Academy, is based at the company's headquarters in Basel, Switzerland, and requires moderate international travel.

Drive technical decisions for complex packaging challenges across multiple product families.
Project & Technical Leadership
Manage packaging development projects, including planning, timelines, risk assessment, resource coordination, and stakeholder communication.
Lead packaging activities supporting global product transfers, manufacturing site localization, supplier changes, and business continuity initiatives.
Plan, coordinate, and evaluate packaging verification and validation activities, including transportation testing, shelf-life studies, sterile barrier validation, and compatibility testing.
Conduct feasibility studies, engineering evaluations, and cost analyses to identify optimal packaging solutions balancing quality, compliance, manufacturability, sustainability, and total cost of ownership.
Cross-functional Collaboration
Provide technical leadership across global cross-functional teams, partnering with Engineering, Operations, Quality, Regulatory Affairs, Clinical Affairs, Procurement, and Marketing.
Collaborate with suppliers and external partners to identify, qualify, and implement innovative packaging materials, technologies, and manufacturing processes.
Build strong collaborative relationships with global stakeholders, manufacturing sites, suppliers, and packaging experts across the Straumann Group.
Standards, Innovation & Continuous Improvement
Define, improve, and maintain global packaging engineering standards, design guidelines, specifications, and best practices.
Drive continuous improvement initiatives to optimize packaging design, materials, manufacturing processes, and environmental performance.
Monitor emerging technologies, regulatory developments, sustainability trends, and industry standards, translating them into practical engineering solutions.
Expertise & Knowledge Sharing
Act as the Subject Matter Expert (SME) for packaging-related topics during internal and external audits, inspections, and regulatory assessments.
Mentor colleagues, share technical expertise, and contribute to the continuous development of packaging engineering capabilities across the organization.
