About

Product Development Engineer (Manufacturing  Packaging)
Location: Cincinnati, OH (On-site) Company: ProAmpac
You don’t just design products. You bring them to life on the plant floor.
At ProAmpac, this role sits at the center of product, process, and performance. If you’ve worked in manufacturing and know the difference between something that looks good on paper and something that actually runs, this is where you make your mark.
Why This Role Exists
Every new product, every material change, every improvement to the line has a direct impact on cost, quality, and customer experience.
This role ensures we get it right. From concept to commercialization.
You’ll connect sales, customers, and operations to turn ideas into scalable, high-performing packaging solutions.
What You’ll Own
This is not a desk-only engineering role. You’ll be on the floor, in trials, and in the middle of real decisions.
•     Lead end-to-end product development across extrusion, press, and conversion
•     Translate customer needs into practical, executable manufacturing solutions
•     Design and execute trial runs that actually surface risks before scale
•     Partner with Sales and customers on new business onboarding
•     Troubleshoot quality issues. Internal and customer-facing
•     Evaluate new materials and alternative sources within quality and cost targets
•     Drive process improvements and efficiency gains across the plant
•     Act as the technical bridge between product, operations, and commercial teams
•     Support quoting and new business through CRM ownership (PD perspective)
What Makes You a Fit
You’re not just technical. You’re practical, curious, and accountable.
•     5+ years in manufacturing product development or engineering
•     Experience working hands-on in production environments
•     Packaging experience is a strong plus. Films, extrusion, or converting preferred
•     Strong problem-solving mindset. You don’t stop at symptoms
•     Ability to manage multiple priorities without losing momentum
•     Comfortable working across teams. From operators to executives
•     Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or related field preferred
What You’ll Experience
•     Real ownership. Your decisions show up on the production line
•     Fast-paced environment where priorities shift and impact is visible
•     Direct exposure to customers, trials, and business outcomes
•     A team that values action, collaboration, and continuous improvement
Non-Negotiables
•     Safety comes first. Always
•     Quality is built in. Not inspected at the end
•     If something isn’t right, you stop it and fix it
The Bottom Line
This role is about execution.
If you want to sit behind a screen and design in isolation, this isn’t it. If you want to see your work run, scale, and improve real operations. You’ll thrive here.
