Technical Leader (thin-gauge)
Sep 29, 2026
- Technical Leader with more than 10 years of experience in thin gauge thermoforming packaging, with a broad technical background spanning product development, engineering, maintenance, project management, and R&D.
- He has grown from product development and engineering into a broad technical leadership role, effectively serving as a liaison between manufacturing, engineering, and maintenance. He understands how to take innovation from concept to manufacturing and brings experience across capital projects, tooling and equipment, maintenance and reliability, and new product development.
- What really stands out is the breadth of his experience. He’s detail-oriented, flexible, and enjoys developing his team members. Depending on an organization’s needs, he could bring value across several technical functions — potentially giving a company a 2-for-1 or even 3-for-1.
- Key strengths include:
- Thin gauge thermoforming and packaging, including plastics processing, materials, tooling, and product development.
- Technical leadership across engineering, product development, maintenance, reliability, continuous improvement, and R&D.
- Capital project and project management experience, from equipment and tooling through installation and commissioning.
- Team leadership, mentoring, and cross-functional collaboration.
- Why Now? He’s been with his current company for a long time, and while things are going well, several leadership changes during his tenure have prompted him to consider what’s next. He feels like it’s simply time for a change and is looking for a new organization where he can continue to grow and develop.
- He is located in the Northeast and is willing to relocate, with a preference for warmer climates along the East Coast. He’s also open to opportunities elsewhere in the supply chain, including with an OEM, mold maker, or material supplier. Titles aren’t overly important — his experience could align with Director or Senior Manager roles in Engineering, Product Development, Project Management, or other technical leadership positions.
