Join us at a pivotal moment where innovation meets sustainability. As a Senior Packaging Engineer, you won’t just design packaging: you’ll shape how products move across the globe in a world of rapidly evolving environmental expectations. This new role is your opportunity to build something from the ground up, driving smarter, leaner, and greener packaging solutions across all Itron manufacturing global locations. 

You’ll be the expert who brings clarity to complexity: optimizing packaging for PCBA and finished goods, ensuring compliance with new regulations (EU and others), and championing reusable solutions that support our long-term circularity goals. Embedded in high-impact programs (both New Product Introduction (NPI) and sustaining engineering) you will collaborate across functions, influence decision-making, and bring fresh thinking where it’s urgently needed. 

Qualifications 

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or related field. 

• Experience with packaging design software. 

• Deep expertise in EU environmental and packaging regulations, manufacturing quality norms and standards (ISO, EN, and other regulatory frameworks), and the ability to apply them effectively in operational and manufacturing environments. 

• Knowledge of materials science and packaging test methodologies. 

• Strong problem-solving, analytical, and project management skills. 

• Ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams and external suppliers. 

• Fluency in English; French / German / Italian are a plus. 

This role is open across several EMEA locations and offers a hybrid work model combining onsite presence, remote work, and travel to manufacturing sites.
