Do you enjoy developing and implementing methods and strategies to monitor, control and optimize injection moulding production processes based on analysis of process data – with all the collaboration and discovery that goes with it? Are you ready to take part in driving a development project all the way to production? Would you enjoy going to work every day knowing that your results make a difference? Then join us and be part of something unique – this position will provide you with excellent opportunities for personal and professional development.

About the department

You will be joining 40 dedicated colleagues in the Device Manufacturing Development Department in Hillerød. We develop the equipment and processes that transform great designs into actual products for our patients, bridging the gap between development departments and the production lines.

The dosage pen systems that are a big part of the success we enjoy are always under further development. We strive to ensure they meet and exceed the expectations of a growing and demanding market. We design all the equipment necessary to perform all the processes involved in the manufacturing of the dosage system components - and this is where we need you.

You will be working with experts in the field of plastics manufacturing processes and raw materials, and you will be in close collaboration with a broad range of stakeholders. We enjoy sharing our knowledge, and we are eager to get to know you and learn from you. If you appreciate collaboration in a creative and ambitious environment, you will feel at home with us.

The position

As our new colleague, you will be responsible for the optimization and control of injection moulding processes for plastic components. You will design and oversee tests to determine the critical manufacturing process parameters and establish the optimal production settings, in order to maximize the process window as limited by the product quality attributes that are critical to the functionality of the insulin dosing pen. Statistical data analysis is essential to establish the process control limits for validation and running production – which you will also be working with. Last but not least, you will ensure that the new methods and strategies are adequately anchored in relevant operating procedures. This is important, since the nature of the product requires everything to adhere to a well-defined set of regulations and quality standards.

This position offers a high level of collaboration across the organization. Technicians and process supporters in the production lines will get you a hand-on angle on your project, device development will provide insight in the "why" behind the product specification, and from your colleagues in Quality Assurance you will get all the support you need to meet regulative standards in your results - just to name a few of the many places where your face will quickly become familiar.

You will also be part of the global support of Novo Nordisk manufacturing lines. This means that your experience and knowledge will benefit colleagues in our sites all over the world, and that you can count on a large support network of experienced experts when solving the challenges of your new job. Together, you will be identifying root causes to unexpected events or deviations from specifications, provide solutions to the issues and implement relevant preventive measures

Qualifications

You hold a Master of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering or similar, and you ideally have a few years of experience with process optimization using design of experiments and statistical analysis. You understand the basics of the injection moulding process and we hope that you already know your way around the many requirements within regulated production setups, but if not, you will receive relevant training.

Your skills in statistics and process optimization methods allow you to draw solid conclusions from data. Your outgoing personality and your communication style makes it easy for you to establish trustful relations across a diverse organization, where many people have backgrounds very different from yours. You are great at engaging and managing stakeholders, and your direction-setting initiative is rivalled only by your ability to follow through and your keen appreciation of quality. You enjoy sharing your knowledge, providing support for your colleagues when they need it.

You likely have:

• Bachelor or Master degree in Mechanical Engineering or similar technical background
• 0-3 years’ experience with DoE statistical data analysis eg. using SAS JMP
• Solid understanding and some experience with injection molding
• Good stakeholder Management skills
• Potentially experience from an international organization

Because you will be working with international business partners, it is a requirement that you are technically proficient in English, in speech as well as in writing. If you understand Danish, your job will probably be easier, but it is not a requirement.
