At Georgia‑Pacific’s Neenah Technical Center (NTC) in Neenah, WI, we are the central site for research, development, and lab services supporting Georgia‑Pacific’s North American Consumer Products business. The Device Development Group creates mechanical and electromechanical dispensing solutions and values innovation, practical engineering, and employee development. You’ll join a collaborative team focused on great design, consistent quality, and delivering customer value.

• Develop product designs and provide ongoing technical support for electromechanical devices across the product lifecycle (concept → commercialization → end of life).
• Create and iterate 3D CAD models and 2D drawings (SolidWorks preferred) for parts and assemblies, primarily injection‑molded plastic components.
• Lead design for manufacturing (DFM) guidance and manage technical interactions with outsourced and international contract manufacturers.
• Generate and maintain full documentation packages and manage release into the company documentation system.
• Create and manage mechanical BOMs and drive engineering changes through release.
• Develop and execute product validation and verification plans; perform simulated use testing and troubleshoot product issues.
• Apply engineering analysis (FMEA, tolerance analysis, FEA, DOE, statistical analysis) to minimize build/test cycles and ensure robust designs.
• Work cross‑functionally with business, quality, electrical/test, and industrial design teams to meet product requirements for safety, quality, performance, and cost.
• Take ownership of development tasks and drive timely completion.

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Mechanical Engineering or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 3+ years’ experience in product design engineering (mechanical/electromechanical products) from concept to commercialization.
