Executive / Senior Executive/Asst. Manager - NPD

MANDATORY Educational requirement:

Bachelors/ Diploma in Packaging Technology

Role & responsibilities:

1. Design and qualify primary, secondary & tertiary packaging for syringes, vials, and cartridges handling.

2. Develop and optimize pelletized packaging (pallet load design) ensuring stability on storage, efficiency, and transport safety.

3. Conduct transport simulation studies (drop, vibration, compression, tilt, climatic chamber) for both shipper and palletized shipments.

4. Assess and optimize material properties (mechanical strength, film thickness, barrier

properties) to meet regulatory and operational needs.

5. Evaluate & implement sustainable packaging solutions and perform LCA to support cost

reduction and eco-friendly initiatives, identify recyclable possibility.

6. Ensure regulatory compliance with ISO 11607, USP 1207, ISTA, ASTM, and

international packaging regulations.

7. Collaborate with NPD, Production, QA, SCM, and vendors to drive innovation, cost

optimization, and risk-free logistics.

8. Prepare detailed technical reports and documentation for internal team.

9. Effective communication skills for collaboration and reporting.

Essential area of knowledge:

• Technical experience in pharmaceutical/medical packaging development.
• Strong understanding of secondary & tertiary packaging materials across multiple MOC (PP, PET, PE, paperboard, biodegradable films) and their end applications.
• Expertise in packaging material properties evaluation: film thickness, tensile/mechanical strength, puncture resistance, sustainability profile.
• Knowledge of sustainable packaging design principles and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for environmental and cost optimization.
• Exposure of pelletize packing & transport simulation studies.
• Knowledge of international packaging standards and regulations: ISO 11607, USP , ISTA protocols, ASTM D4169, FDA/EU guidelines.
