Job Title: Manufacturing / Process Engineer

Location: Navan, Co. Meath

Industry: Medical Device Manufacturing

About the Company

With over 40 years’ experience providing advanced foam solutions to the global medical device sector, our client is a trusted partner for innovation and speed-to-market in healthcare. With manufacturing operations in Ireland and Asia, the business collaborates closely with customers to deliver customised, high-quality solutions that improve patient outcomes.

Recently acquired by a multinational leader in medical device manufacturing, the Navan site is entering a new phase of growth and development. As part of this strategy, we are now seeking a Manufacturing / Process Engineer to join the team.

The Opportunity

This is an excellent role for a recent graduate or early-career engineer who wants to gain broad experience in medical device manufacturing. Unlike larger multinational sites where engineers can often be confined to narrow functions, this position offers the chance to work across multiple areas of the business, driving process improvements and supporting production scale-up.

You’ll have the opportunity to:

Collaborate closely with senior leadership at the Navan site.
Work alongside experienced teams across Galway and international locations.
Gain exposure to advanced processes, continuous improvement initiatives, and technical problem-solving.
Develop both personally and professionally with strong mentorship and hands-on involvement.

Key Responsibilities

Support day-to-day production engineering activities at the Navan site.
Work with cross-functional teams to introduce, optimise, and validate manufacturing processes.
Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives in quality, efficiency, and cost.
Provide technical support for troubleshooting process and equipment issues.
Assist in the implementation of new technologies and scale-up of new product lines.
Ensure compliance with regulatory and quality standards (ISO 13485, GMP, etc.).

Requirements

Degree in Manufacturing, Mechanical, Biomedical, or related Engineering discipline.
0–3 years’ experience in manufacturing, ideally within the medical device or regulated industry (placement / internship experience considered).
Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
Good communication and teamwork abilities.
Enthusiastic and adaptable, with a willingness to learn and take on a broad scope of responsibilities.

What’s on Offer

Opportunity to work in a high-growth site with global backing.
Broad exposure to multiple functions, processes, and leadership.
Hands-on learning and development in a collaborative, supportive environment.
Clear potential for progression as the site expands.

I’ll review your CV and reply back within 24 hours.
