Tyvek® is one of the most recognized materials in the world — it protects hospitals, homes, laboratories, and the people who work in them. We're growing, and we're looking for a Mechanical Engineer to help push flash-spinning technology forward and bring new Tyvek® products from concept to commercial scale.
This is hands-on engineering with visible impact. You'll design experiments, solve problems no one has solved before, and see your work move from the lab bench into full-scale manufacturing and out into the market. You'll do it alongside a multidisciplinary R&D team spanning materials science, polymer science, chemistry, and chemical, mechanical, and electrical engineering — a group known for giving engineers real ownership of their programs.
What You'll Do
- Lead product and process R&D programs from concept through commercial implementation
- Design and run laboratory, experimental, and modeling studies — then translate the results into clear technical and business direction
- Own project plans, timelines, and cross-functional testing and implementation activities
- Communicate technical strategy, progress, and recommendations to stakeholders at all levels
- Partner with scientists and engineers to scale new technology from development into manufacturing
- Work with external consultants, suppliers, and partners to accelerate project objectives
- Build the intellectual property portfolio through competitive landscape assessment, invention identification, and patent generation
What You'll Bring
- M.S. or Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline with relevant industrial or R&D experience
- Working knowledge of mechanical engineering fundamentals applied to equipment design, process development, or process optimization
- Solid grounding in fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and heat transfer
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the judgment to know which problems matter most
- Clear communicator who collaborates and influences well across technical and non-technical partners
- Self-motivated and comfortable operating in a dynamic, evolving environment
- Fluency in English
- Willingness to travel up to 25%
Nice to Have
- 5+ years of professional experience
- Experience with 3D CAD tools
- Experience with data analysis, visualization, and large data sets
- Familiarity with finite element analysis (FEA) and/or computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
- Experience with polymer processing or web-handling equipment
