About the job
I am looking for an experienced Thermoforming or Industrial Engineer to review a new product concept and provide expert guidance on feasibility and production requirements.
I already have drawings, sketches, and a physical sample. I need an engineer who can:
Review the current design for thermoforming feasibility
Advise on material selection (PP, PET, PETG, etc.)
Recommend proper thickness (mil/mm) for strength & durability
Suggest structural changes to prevent bending/warping
Evaluate draft angles, radiuses, and forming limitations
Confirm whether the product can be made with vacuum/pressure forming
Provide direction on tooling and mold considerations
Identify potential manufacturing issues BEFORE I move forward
Important:
Full details will only be shared after signing an NDA.
I prefer someone located in NY/NJ/CT so I can bring the sample in person, but remote is fine if highly experienced.
Experience required:
Thermoforming engineering
Thin-gauge plastics
Mold/tooling for thermoforming
Packaging or tray design experience (a plus)
CAD experience (SolidWorks, Fusion360, AutoCAD)
Looking to start immediately.
