Job Description

We are the makers of possible 

BD is one of the largest global medical technology companies in the world. Advancing the world of health™ is our Purpose, and it’s no small feat. It takes the imagination and passion of all of us—from design and engineering to the manufacturing and marketing of our billions of MedTech products per year—to look at the impossible and find transformative solutions that turn dreams into possibilities. 

We believe that the human element, across our global teams, is what allows us to continually evolve. Join us and discover an environment in which you’ll be supported to learn, grow and become your best self. Become a maker of possible with us. 

Key Responsibilities

  • Serve as a core team member on sustaining engineering projects, ensuring site and operations requirements are incorporated into scope, risk assessments, validation strategies, and implementation plans. 

  • Act as the primary point of contact between platform project teams and manufacturing sites, communicating execution needs, risks, constraints, and status. 

  • Provide site‑level input on capacity, timing, and resource availability to support project sequencing and prioritization decisions. 

  • Coordinate site execution activities, including validations, process studies, engineering work orders, material trials, and line‑time planning. 

  • Monitor site readiness and execution risks, escalating impacts and constraints to project leadership and the PMO to enable timely mitigation. 

  • Support implementation of sustaining changes such as material or packaging updates, process changes, compliance initiatives, and business continuity projects. 

  • Ensure completion of required documentation and change control activities for site‑impacting changes, including validation documentation, training coordination, and implementation closeout. 

  • Manage the Sustaining projects portfolio for the sites within the scope of work.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Business Administration, Supply Chain, Project Management, Communications, or a related field. 

  • 3+ years of experience in manufacturing, sustaining engineering, process engineering, or product lifecycle support within a regulated industry. 

  • Experience supporting cross‑functional project teams with site execution responsibilities. 

  • Experience operating in a quality‑ and regulatory‑controlled environment. 

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in medical devices or another highly regulated manufacturing environment. 

  • Experience coordinating site trials or execution across multiple manufacturing lines or sites. 

  • Familiarity with SAP manufacturing and document control systems. 

  • PMP, Lean Six Sigma, or similar project or operations certifications. 

Skills and Knowledge:

  • Strong communication and coordination skills, with the ability to influence without direct authority. 
  • Business analysis, product management, or negotiation/mediation training. 
  • Exposure to cost‑out, supply continuity, compliance, or end‑of‑life initiatives. 
  • Strong communication and coordination skills, with the ability to influence without direct authority. 

Success in This Role

  • Manufacturing sites have a clear, trusted point of contact for sustaining engineering initiatives. 

  • Project teams have accurate visibility into site capacity, timing, and execution constraints. 

  • Validations, trials, and implementations are planned earlier and executed with fewer disruptions. 

  • Sustaining projects progress efficiently through strong coordination between sites and platform teams. 

  • Site sustaining needs are clearly communicated and effectively prioritized at the platform level. 

At BD, we prioritize on-site collaboration because we believe it fosters creativity, innovation, and effective problem-solving, which are essential in the fast-paced healthcare industry. For most roles, we require a minimum of 4 days of in-office presence per week to maintain our culture of excellence and ensure smooth operations, while also recognizing the importance of flexibility and work-life balance. Remote or field-based positions will have different workplace arrangements which will be indicated in the job posting.
