NPI Engineer

Smith+Nephew


Date: 2 weeks ago
City: Kingston upon Hull
Contract type: Full time
Life Unlimited. At Smith+Nephew, we craft and manufacture technology that takes the limits off living!

We have a great opportunity to join our New Product Introduction team as an NPI Manufacturing Engineer. You'll work on our next generation of wound products to make difference, not only to S+N but more meaningfully, our customers!

What does the life of an NPI Manufacturing Engineer look like?

It's product and process development, it's straddling the early design concepts versus the operations and manufacturing processes. While one speaks to the art of the possible - this role will act as an anchor, guiding early product design phases and delivering a manufacturing process that will produce our products to specification, but do so efficiently. It will require innovation, thought, teamwork, leadership... after all, how can we produce innovative products without innovative processes?

What will you be doing?

  • Implement and Validate new manufacturing processes within the Wound Operational franchise
  • Support all Design Transfer activities for new product launches as part of embedding new products into operations and ensure we have capacity for growth


What will you need to be successful?

Our successful candidate will be educated in a relevant engineering background, such as a B.ENG degree or equivalent experience or Higher National Certificate.

You'll be an experienced engineer with an understanding of and passion for the manufacturing processes. Experience with NPI and supplier relationship management would be advantageous, however not crucial.
